Perhaps, this has already been addressed in a newer release (?) but in Python 3.9, making `@dataclass` work with `Enum` is a bit awkward.
Currently, it order to make it work, I have to: 1. Pass `init=False` to `@dataclass` and hand-write the `__init__` method 2. Pass `repr=False` to `@dataclass` and use `Enum`'s representation or write a custom __repr__ Example: In [72]: @dataclass(frozen=True, init=False, repr=False) ...: class Creature(Enum): ...: legs: int ...: size: str ...: Beetle = (6, 'small') ...: Dog = (4, 'medium') ...: def __init__(self, legs, size): ...: self.legs = legs ...: self.size = size ...: In [73]: Creature.Dog Out[73]: <Creature.Dog: (4, 'medium')> _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/EXPSE4KQYM5SWPFCWH4QPOTS6UCP5FNL/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
