Enum

⚠️

There is no enum in JavaScript, and Rust enum is very different from TypeScript enum. You need read this section carefully before you use Rust enum in JavaScript.

In NAPI-RS, Rust enum is basically transformed into a plain JavaScript Object.

lib.rs

#[napi]
enum Kind {
  Duck,
  Dog,
  Cat,
}

index.d.ts

export const enum Kind {
  Duck,
  Dog,
  Cat,
}

In TypeScript, numeric enums members also get a reverse mapping from enum values to enum names. But in Rust, we don't have this reverse mapping behaviour. It is just a plain JavaScript Object.

Also, NAPI-RS doesn't support generating Rust enum impl into JavaScript.
