enumStyle

Type: string | Required

Specifies how to generate enum types in the generated code. Can be either a TypeScript enum or a union type.

Usage

// openapi.config.ts
import { GeneratorConfig } from 'ng-openapi';

const config: GeneratorConfig = {
  options: {
    enumStyle: 'enum' // or 'union'
  },
  ... // other configurations
};

export default config;

Supported Options

'enum' (Default)

Generates TypeScript enum types for enumerations.

// Example enum with integer values
enum Status {
  _0 = 0,
  _1 = 1
}

// Example enum with string values
enum Status {
  Active = 'active',
  Inactive = 'inactive'
}

'union'

Not supported yet, but will generate union types for enumerations in the future.

Notes

• OpenAPI only stores enum values, not names. The generator creates TypeScript enums with names based on values
• If your OpenAPI spec contains a description for the enum object, ng-openapi can generate enums based on that description
