Hi,
I'd like to customize my JSON serialization out of a service to export the Enums as string values versus the integer number.
Is this possible?
Kind Regards,
Corneliu

Enums with the [Flags] attribute get serialized as numbers, Enums without the attribute are serialized as strings.

Can I "convince" it to serialize Flags as strings?
"Value1 | Value2 | Value3" ?
Kind Regards,
Corneliu

Your current options are:
- Convert it to a string (and therefore serialize it as you want)
- Create a duplicate set of enums without the flag attribute (i.e. specific for a DTO)
- Embed it in a type and customize the De/Serialization with JsConfig<T>.SerializeFn, e.g:
- Convert it to a struct type and override ToString/Ctor or T.Parse methods:
http://www.servicestack.net/docs/text-serializers/json-serializer (from title Using Structs to Customize JSON)
- Create a fork and change the source code here:

Hi,
is there a way how I could tell the serializer to output number for a
Nullable<Enum>?
Cheers?

You could try: JsConfig<Nullable<MyEnum>>.SerializeFn/
.DeserializeFn
