Usage

Enum Extensions

using Casper.Library.Helpers.Extensions;
using Casper.Library.Helpers.Attributes;

public enum Status
{
    [Description(Code = "ACT", Description = "Active")]
    Active,
    
    [Description(Code = "INA", Description = "Inactive")]
    Inactive
}

// Get custom code
string code = Status.Active.GetCode(); // Returns "ACT"

// Get description
string description = Status.Active.GetDescription(); // Returns "Active"

// Convert string to enum
Status status = "ACT".ToEnum<Status>(); // Returns Status.Active

Number Extensions

using Casper.Library.Helpers.Extensions;

// Convert nullable numbers with default fallback
decimal? nullableDecimal = null;
decimal result = nullableDecimal.ToDecimalDefault(); // Returns 0

// Convert string to decimal with culture support
string numberString = "123.45";
decimal decimalValue = numberString.ToDecimalDefault("en-US"); // Returns 123.45

Permission Attribute

using Casper.Library.Helpers.Attributes;

[Permision(
    ServiceCode = "USER",
    ServiceName = "User Management",
    GroupCode = "ADMIN",
    GroupName = "Administration",
    PermisionCode = "CREATE",
    PermisionName = "Create User",
