How to create two enums with same key value within a single class?

[shashikant-lokare]

Example, if I try to create like below, it will give error
ArgumentError (You tried to define an enum named "payment_sub_status" on the model "OrderPayments::Payment", but this will generate a instance method "pending?", which is already defined by another enum.)

enum payment_status: { pending: 1, success: 2, failed: 3, cancelled: 4 } do
event :succeed do
after do
self.update_sub_status 'success'
end
transition %i[success pending failed] => :success
end
end

enum payment_status2: { pending: 1, success: 2, failed: 3, cancelled: 4 } do
event :succeed do
after do
self.update_sub_status 'success'
end
transition %i[success pending failed] => :success
end
end

This is expected. You need to give one of the enums a prefix or suffix.

https://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/Enum.html

You can use the :prefix or :suffix options when you need to define multiple enums with same values. If the passed value is true, the methods are prefixed/suffixed with the name of the enum. It is also possible to supply a custom value:

class Conversation < ActiveRecord::Base
  enum :status, [ :active, :archived ], suffix: true
  enum :comments_status, [ :active, :inactive ], prefix: :comments
end
