Return only the property of enum, not Class.Property [closed]

I have the following code:

from enum import Enum

class BetterChoices(Enum):
    @classmethod
    def choices(cls):
        return [(tag.name, tag.value) for tag in cls]


class SensorStatus(BetterChoices):
    UNASSIGNED =  'Sin asignar'
    ASSIGNED =  'Asignado'

If I do print(SensorStatus.ASSIGNED.name) it returns SensorStatus.ASSIGNED. If I do print(SensorStatus.ASSIGNED.value) it returns 'Sin asignar'. What if I just want to return the name, not the Class.name?

So, if I do print(x) it will return ASSIGNED as a string.

Answer

You can do that by implementing the __str__ magic method in your BetterChoices class:

def __str__(self):
    return self.name

Each python object has string representation. When you do str(object) or print(object) Python implicitly calls object.__str__. Enum‘s default string representation has form <Classname>.<Attribute>. To override that you just need implement your own version of __str__.
