Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

Enum

✓ from enumb import Enum

✗ from enum import Enum

Python's standard library has 'enum.Enum', not 'enumb.Enum'. Using the wrong import will import the standard Enum, not enumb's enhanced version.

Define and use a simple enum with enumb.

from enumb import Enum class Color(Enum): RED = 1 GREEN = 2 BLUE = 3 print(Color.RED) print(Color.RED.name) print(Color.RED.value) # Output: # Color.RED # RED # 1

Debug

Known issues

gotchaDo not import Enum from the standard library 'enum' when intending to use enumb. The standard library Enum has different behavior (e.g., no automatic value assignment, different member iteration).

fix

Use 'from enumb import Enum' explicitly.

affects: all

gotchaenumb's Enum does not support inheritance from multiple Enum classes by default. Mixing enumb Enum with other classes may cause metaclass conflicts.

fix

If you need multiple inheritance, consider using enumb's EnumMeta carefully or use composition.

affects: >=0.1.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

TypeError: metaclass conflict: the metaclass of a derived class must be a (non-strict) subclass of the metaclasses of all its bases

Trying to inherit from both enumb.Enum and another class that has a different metaclass (e.g., standard library enum.Enum).

fix

Ensure all base classes use the same metaclass. Either avoid mixing Enum types or define a custom metaclass that inherits from both metaclasses.

AttributeError: 'Color' object has no attribute '_name_'

Using enumb's Enum but accessing attributes like _name_ which are internal to the standard library's EnumMeta. enumb uses different internal attributes.

fix

Use the public API: .name (without underscores) to get the member name.
