Introduction

The Enum plugin checks string values of Keys by comparing it against a list of valid values.

Usage

The plugin checks every Key in the Keyset for the Metakey check/enum containing a list with the syntax 'string1', 'string2', 'string3', ..., 'stringN' and compares each value with the string value of the Key. If no match is found an error is returned.

Example

kdb mount enum.ecf /example/enum enum
kdb set user/example/enum/value middle # init to something valid
kdb setmeta user/example/enum/value check/enum "'low', 'middle', 'high'"
kdb set user/example/enum/value low # success
kdb set user/example/enum/value no  # fail
