SearchlightField EnumType doesn't do anything

[charliettaylor]

I was attempting to set up an enum to query on and it doesn't seem like setting the EnumType does any conversion.

Example

public enum CarType
{
    Sedan = 0,
    SUV = 1,
    // etc.
}

[SearchlightModel(OriginalName = "Car", DefaultSort = nameof(Type))]
public class Car
{
    [SearchlightField(FieldType = typeof(int), EnumType = typeof(CarType))]
    public CarType Type { get; set; }
}

If I attempt a filter like type eq Sedan, the filter fails with Searchlight.FieldTypeMismatch. There should be an automatic conversion from the enum name to the underlying value so that using type eq 0 and type eq Sedan are both valid filters.

Good catch, thanks for reporting. We could use some more tests for enums anyway!
