Is there any way in python to declare an enum's variables without values?
The syntax that works:
from enum import Enum class Color(Enum): Red = 'Red' Blue = 'Blue' Green = 'Green' Since for this case the enum values are the same as the variable names, I'd like to avoid duplication.
Something like this maybe:
from enum import Enum class Color(Enum): Red Blue Green This is why enum.auto() is a thing, so you don't need to write values explicitly.
from enum import Enum, auto class Color(Enum): Red = auto() Blue = auto() Green = auto() You can also do print(Color.Red.name) to retrieve the name of the member :D
if mode == Modes.STANDBY etc.. you don't use their names at all, just as identifiers.print(Color.Red.name) or any Color.*.name.
