What is the method to make protobuf.js generate string values for enums instead of integers?

edit

To make protobuf.js generate string values for enums instead of integers, you can use the string option when defining the enum field in the protobuf schema:

enum MyEnum {
  option allow_alias = true;
  option (protobufjs.enum_value_string) = true; // enable string values

  VALUE_ONE = 0 [(protobufjs.value) = "enum-value-one"]; // set string value
  VALUE_TWO = 1 [(protobufjs.value) = "enum-value-two"]; // set string value
}

Here, the (protobufjs.enum_value_string) = true option enables string values for the enum, and the (protobufjs.value) option allows you to set a custom string value for each enum value.

When you generate code from this schema using protobuf.js, the generated TypeScript/JavaScript code will have string values for the enum instead of integers:

enum MyEnum {
  VALUE_ONE = "enum-value-one",
  VALUE_TWO = "enum-value-two",
}
