[BUG][Elm] invalid code is generated for array of enum strings #22119

Description

Description

When generating Elm code with a schema that has an array property with items of type string enum, the generated code is invalid. The encoder tries to encode the enum as an integer, which is incorrect. The function it tries to reference does not exist.

    }
  }
}
Generation Details

npx @openapitools/openapi-generator-cli generate -i openapi.json -g elm -o elm

Steps to reproduce

Run the generated command, see that the generated file contains:

encodeTestObjectBody : TestObjectBody -> Json.Encode.Value
encodeTestObjectBody =
    Json.Encode.int << intFromTestObjectBody

while it should be

encodeTestObjectBody : TestObjectBody -> Json.Encode.Value
encodeTestObjectBody =
    Json.Encode.string << stringFromTestObjectBody
Suggest a fix

See above. Fix is to correctly interpret the enum as a string.
