This package is called munepy. It is yet another Python enum package, but with a slightly different take on syntax and semantics than earlier such packages.
The goals of munepy were to produce simple, specific, concise semantics in an easy to read and write syntax. munepy has just enough of the features needed to make Enums useful, but without a lot of extra baggage to weigh them down. This work grew out of the Mailman 3.0 project and it is the enum package used there.
The name munepy is a play on words. mune is enum backwards, and py is a common suffix for Python code. munepy is pronounced exactly the same as the delicious round chocolaty (if appearance indicates) pastry Moon Pie, which is best when consumed with an RC cola.
Why another Python enumeration implementation? ‘Cause I like mine better. :)
munepy requires Python 2.6 or newer, and is compatible with Python 3 (when used with 2to3).
All documentation is in the form of doctests. Because the package is so simple to use, the doctests should allow you to get started using munepy enums in about 5 minutes.
See munepy/docs/README.txt for details.
