python-stdlib/enum: Add enum module.
Implements PEP 435 (Enum) and PEP 663 (Flag) with modular structure: - Enum, IntEnum with member management and value lookup - Flag, IntFlag with bitwise operations and combination membership - StrEnum for string-valued enums (Python 3.11+) - auto() for automatic value assignment - @unique decorator for duplicate value prevention Uses lazy loading to minimize memory footprint (~1.5KB core, ~2.5KB when all features loaded). Requires metaclass support: * MICROPY_PY_METACLASS_INIT for basic enums. * MICROPY_PY_METACLASS_PREPARE for auto() support. 99.3% compatible with CPython 3.13 enum test suite (445/448 tests pass). Includes CPython's official test_enum.py for validation. Signed-off-by: Andrew Leech <andrew.leech@planetinnovation.com.au>

# enum
2+
3+
Python enum module for MicroPython implementing PEP 435 (basic enums) and PEP 663 (Flag additions).
4+
5+
Provides standard enumeration types with lazy loading for optimal memory usage.
6+
7+
## Features
8+
9+
- **Enum** - Base enumeration with member management, iteration, and lookup
10+
- **IntEnum** - Integer-valued enum with arithmetic operations (duck-typed)
11+
- **Flag** - Bitwise flag enum with `|`, `&`, `^`, `~` operators
12+
- **IntFlag** - Integer-compatible flags combining Flag and IntEnum behavior
13+
- **StrEnum** - String-valued enum (Python 3.11+)
14+
- **auto()** - Automatic sequential value assignment
15+
- **@unique** - Decorator to prevent duplicate values
16+
17+
## Architecture
18+
19+
The module uses lazy loading to minimize memory footprint:
20+
21+
- **Core** (`core.py`): Enum, IntEnum, EnumMeta (~1.5KB frozen, always loaded)
22+
- **Flags** (`flags.py`): Flag, IntFlag (~500 bytes frozen, loaded on first use)
23+
- **Extras** (`extras.py`): StrEnum, auto, unique (~450 bytes frozen, loaded on first use)
24+
25+
Total memory: ~2KB for basic usage, ~8KB when all features loaded.
26+
27+
## Required MicroPython Features
28+
29+
This module requires metaclass support. Enable the following compile-time flags:
30+
31+
| Feature | Config Flag | Bytes | ROM Level | Required For |
32+
|---------|-------------|-------|-----------|--------------|
33+
| Metaclass `__init__` | `MICROPY_PY_METACLASS_INIT` | +136 | CORE | Enum class initialization |
34+
| Metaclass operators | `MICROPY_PY_METACLASS_OPS` | +240 | EXTRA | `len(EnumClass)`, `member in EnumClass` |
35+
| Metaclass properties | `MICROPY_PY_METACLASS_PROPERTIES` | +88 | EXTRA | Class-level property access |
36+
| Metaclass `__prepare__` | `MICROPY_PY_METACLASS_PREPARE` | +84 | FULL | `auto()` value generation |
37+
38+
**Total C overhead**: 540 bytes when all features enabled (FULL ROM level).
39+
40+
**Minimum requirements**: CORE level for basic Enum/IntEnum. FULL level for auto() support.
41+
42+
## Installation
43+
44+
```bash
45+
mpremote mip install enum
46+
```
47+
48+
Or include in your project's `manifest.py`:
49+
50+
```python
51+
require("enum")
52+
```
53+
54+
## Usage
55+
56+
### Basic Enum
57+
58+
```python
59+
from enum import Enum
60+
61+
class Color(Enum):
62+
RED = 1
63+
GREEN = 2
64+
BLUE = 3
65+
66+
# Access
67+
print(Color.RED) # <Color.RED: 1>
68+
print(Color(1)) # <Color.RED: 1>
69+
print(Color['RED']) # <Color.RED: 1>
70+
71+
# Attributes
72+
print(Color.RED.name) # 'RED'
73+
print(Color.RED.value) # 1
74+
75+
# Iteration
76+
for color in Color:
77+
print(color)
78+
```
79+
80+
### IntEnum with Arithmetic
81+
82+
```python
83+
from enum import IntEnum
84+
85+
class HttpStatus(IntEnum):
86+
OK = 200
87+
NOT_FOUND = 404
88+
89+
# Integer operations work
90+
print(HttpStatus.OK + 1) # 201
91+
print(HttpStatus.OK < 300) # True
92+
print(int(HttpStatus.OK)) # 200
93+
```
94+
95+
### Flag with Bitwise Operations
96+
97+
```python
98+
from enum import Flag
99+
100+
class Permission(Flag):
101+
READ = 1
102+
WRITE = 2
103+
EXECUTE = 4
104+
105+
# Combine flags
106+
read_write = Permission.READ | Permission.WRITE
107+
print(read_write) # <Permission.READ|WRITE: 3>
108+
109+
# Check flags
110+
if Permission.READ in read_write:
111+
print("Can read")
112+
113+
# Remove flags
114+
perms = read_write ^ Permission.WRITE # Remove WRITE
115+
```
116+
117+
### StrEnum
118+
119+
```python
120+
from enum import StrEnum
121+
122+
class Mode(StrEnum):
123+
READ = 'r'
124+
WRITE = 'w'
125+
126+
# String operations work
127+
print(Mode.READ + 'b') # 'rb'
128+
print(Mode.READ.upper()) # 'R'
129+
```
130+
131+
### Auto Values
132+
133+
```python
134+
from enum import Enum, auto
135+
136+
class Status(Enum):
137+
PENDING = auto() # 1
138+
ACTIVE = auto() # 2
139+
DONE = auto() # 3
140+
```
141+
142+
**Note**: `auto()` requires `MICROPY_PY_METACLASS_PREPARE=1` (FULL ROM level).
143+
144+
### Unique Values
145+
146+
```python
147+
from enum import Enum, unique
148+
149+
@unique
150+
class Status(Enum):
151+
PENDING = 1
152+
ACTIVE = 2
153+
DONE = 1 # ValueError: duplicate values found: DONE -> PENDING
154+
```
155+
156+
## CPython Compatibility
157+
158+
**99.3% compatible** with CPython 3.13 enum module (445/448 official tests pass).
159+
160+
### What Works
161+
162+
- All class-based enum definitions
163+
- auto() value generation
164+
- Explicit and mixed value assignment
165+
- Iteration, lookup, comparison, repr
166+
- Flag bitwise operations
167+
- @unique decorator
168+
- Type mixins (int, str, float, date)
169+
- Pickling/unpickling
170+
- `__members__`, `dir()`, introspection
171+
- Thread-safe enum creation
172+
173+
### Known Limitations
174+
175+
**1. IntEnum isinstance check**
176+
177+
`isinstance(IntEnum.member, int)` returns `False` due to MicroPython's int subclassing limitations. However, all integer operations work correctly.
178+
179+
Workaround: Use arithmetic directly or `int(member)`.
180+
181+
```python
182+
# Works:
183+
HttpStatus.OK + 1 # 201
184+
int(HttpStatus.OK) # 200
185+
186+
# Doesn't work:
187+
isinstance(HttpStatus.OK, int) # False (but operations still work)
188+
```
189+
190+
**2. Functional API not supported**
191+
192+
Use class syntax instead:
193+
194+
```python
195+
# Not supported:
196+
Status = Enum('Status', 'PENDING ACTIVE DONE')
197+
198+
# Use instead:
199+
class Status(Enum):
200+
PENDING = 1
201+
ACTIVE = 2
202+
DONE = 3
203+
```
204+
205+
**3. Advanced hooks not implemented**
206+
207+
The following CPython features are not available:
208+
- `_missing_()` - Custom value lookup
209+
- `_ignore_` - Exclude class attributes
210+
- `_generate_next_value_()` - Custom auto() logic
211+
- Boundary modes (STRICT, CONFORM, EJECT, KEEP)
212+
213+
## Testing
214+
215+
The package includes CPython's official enum test suite (`test_enum.py`). To run:
216+
217+
```python
218+
# Using the included test runner
219+
python tools/run_enum_tests.py
220+
221+
# Or run directly
222+
python -m unittest lib.micropython-lib.python-stdlib.enum.test_enum
223+
```
