A reader asked for more detail on exactly how I leverage enumerations, so I thought I’d give a more explicit example.
An enumeration module is no different than any other custom module you would build, and it outputs a plain JavaScript Object, like so:
That is the enumeration module in its entirety. The structure is a plain JavaScript Object, so you can add as many properties as you want, and those properties can refer to numbers, strings, Arrays, other Objects, etc.
If I want to then reference that Printful property within, for example, a User Event script in the same directory as my-enums.js
, it looks like this:
While I would prefer enum
over enums
, be aware that enum
is unfortunately a reserved keyword in JavaScript, and so cannot be used as a variable name.
