Ethan Furman added the comment: I'd be in favor of the __protocol__ route first and the PEP 443 route second.
The problem with just tacking in `str(int(value))` or `str(float(value))` is where does it stop? StrEnum, TupleEnum, BytesEnum, ComplexEnum, SomeOtherInterestingConstantEnum, etc., etc.. If we go the __protocol__ route we add one method to Enum which returns the `str` of its `.value`, and we're set for every Enum.* As a bonus, any other object that needs special json (or yaml or whatever) consideration has a fairly easy way to make it happen. *Every normal Enum, anyway. ;) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18264> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
