Remarks

  • magic_enum does not pretend to be a silver bullet for reflection for enums, it was originally designed for small enum.

  • Before use, read the limitations of functionality.

Integration

  • You should add the required file magic_enum.hpp, and optionally other headers from include dir or release archive. Alternatively, you can build the library with CMake.

  • If you are using vcpkg on your project for external dependencies, then you can use the magic-enum package.

  • If you are using Conan to manage your dependencies, merely add magic_enum/x.y.z to your conan's requires, where x.y.z is the release version you want to use.

  • If you are using Build2 to build and manage your dependencies, add depends: magic_enum ^x.y.z to the manifest file where x.y.z is the release version you want to use. You can then import the target using magic_enum%lib{magic_enum}.

  • Alternatively, you can use something like CPM which is based on CMake's Fetch_Content module.

  CPMAddPackage(
      NAME magic_enum
      GITHUB_REPOSITORY Neargye/magic_enum
      GIT_TAG x.y.z # Where `x.y.z` is the release version you want to use.
  )

  • Bazel is also supported, simply add to your WORKSPACE file:
  http_archive(
      name = "magic_enum",
      strip_prefix = "magic_enum-<commit>",
      urls = ["https://github.com/Neargye/magic_enum/archive/<commit>.zip"],
  )

To use bazel inside the repository it's possible to do:

  bazel build //...
  bazel test //...
  bazel run //example

(Note that you must use a supported compiler or specify it with export CC= <compiler>.)

  • If you are using Ros, you can include this package by adding <depend>magic_enum</depend> to your package.xml and include this package in your workspace. In your CMakeLists.txt add the following:
  find_package(magic_enum CONFIG REQUIRED)
  ...
  target_link_libraries(your_executable magic_enum::magic_enum)

Remarks

  • magic_enum does not pretend to be a silver bullet for reflection for enums, it was originally designed for small enum.

  • Before use, read the limitations of functionality.

Integration

  • You should add the required file magic_enum.hpp, and optionally other headers from include dir or release archive. Alternatively, you can build the library with CMake.

  • If you are using vcpkg on your project for external dependencies, then you can use the magic-enum package.

  • If you are using Conan to manage your dependencies, merely add magic_enum/x.y.z to your conan's requires, where x.y.z is the release version you want to use.

  • If you are using Build2 to build and manage your dependencies, add depends: magic_enum ^x.y.z to the manifest file where x.y.z is the release version you want to use. You can then import the target using magic_enum%lib{magic_enum}.

  • Alternatively, you can use something like CPM which is based on CMake's Fetch_Content module.

  CPMAddPackage(
      NAME magic_enum
      GITHUB_REPOSITORY Neargye/magic_enum
      GIT_TAG x.y.z # Where `x.y.z` is the release version you want to use.
  )

  • Bazel is also supported, simply add to your WORKSPACE file:
  http_archive(
      name = "magic_enum",
      strip_prefix = "magic_enum-<commit>",
      urls = ["https://github.com/Neargye/magic_enum/archive/<commit>.zip"],
  )

To use bazel inside the repository it's possible to do:

  bazel build //...
  bazel test //...
  bazel run //example

(Note that you must use a supported compiler or specify it with export CC= <compiler>.)

  • If you are using Ros, you can include this package by adding <depend>magic_enum</depend> to your package.xml and include this package in your workspace. In your CMakeLists.txt add the following:
  find_package(magic_enum CONFIG REQUIRED)
  ...
  target_link_libraries(your_executable magic_enum::magic_enum)
