Hello,

This pull request renames the enum_{prefix_suffix} options to _{prefix_suffix} in order to make it more clear that they are reserved keywords and also it seems less redundant as the line already starts with the call to the enum method.

Cross-refs #19813 (comment).

Have a nice day.

This makes it more clear that they are reserved keywords and also it
seems less redundant as the line already starts with the call to the
`enum` method.

Thanks! :-)

# Note that <tt>:enum_prefix</tt>/<tt>:enum_suffix</tt> are reserved keywords
# and can not be used as an enum name.
# Note that <tt>:_prefix</tt>/<tt>:_suffix</tt> are reserved keywords and can
# not be used as enum names.

We can probably ✂️ now? Seems unlikely that people would try to use _ names, so while it's technically still true, it is just adding noise to me. What do you think?

Would trade that with an example of the feature. It doesn't really explain what the feature does, if you didn't know about the history here it seems unlikely that you would understand what it does/why you would need it from reading the docs here

to define multiple enums with same values

would be nice if the examples actually show that use case 😄

Yes, you're totally right! 👍 Will send a patch then!

The note regarding the `_prefix` and `_suffix` options is no longer
useful since they were renamed specifically for this purpose.

Also the given example doesn't show what these options enable and in
which case they are really useful (when there are conflicting values
for instance).

Refs #20999.

`:enum_prefix` and `:enum_suffix` was changed to `:_prefix` and `:_suffix`
in rails#20999.

Unlike other features built on Attribute API, reserved options for
`enum` has leading `_`.

* `_prefix`/`_suffix`: rails#19813, rails#20999
* `_scopes`: rails#34605
* `_default`: rails#39820

That is due to `enum` takes one hash argument only, which contains both
enum definitions and reserved options.

I propose new syntax for `enum` to avoid leading `_` from reserved
options, by allowing `enum(attr_name, ..., **options)` more Attribute
API like syntax.

Before:

```ruby
class Book < ActiveRecord::Base
  enum status: [ :proposed, :written ], _prefix: true, _scopes: false
  enum cover: [ :hard, :soft ], _suffix: true, _default: :hard
end
```

After:

```ruby
class Book < ActiveRecord::Base
  enum :status, [ :proposed, :written ], prefix: true, scopes: false
  enum :cover, [ :hard, :soft ], suffix: true, default: :hard
end
```
