[Question]: Is using #[Context(...)] supposed to be supported?

Question

I implemented a Symfony normalizer that supports normalizing / denormalizing enum by their name when adding a #[Context('_nelmio_enum_force_names' => true)] attribute and I'm trying to get nelmio to generate a model with type = string and using the enum names for the values in this case.

I created an EnumModelDescriber that does the same thing as the one in NelmioBundleDocBundle but also acceptd UnitEnum when _nelmio_enum_force_names is true in the serialization context. But the context is empty even if I add the #[Context('_nelmio_enum_force_names' => true)] attribute on the property holding the enum.

Is this expected?

This is not currently supported 😞

Thank you for the reply @DjordyKoert . I see you labeled that as a good first issue. Depending on how much time it requires I may take a try at it. If you already know how it should be implemented, do you mind giving me some guideline / hints? 🙏

I think that this can be implemented by simply getting the class metadata as is done in various places already

https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Anelmio%2FNelmioApiDocBundle%20getMetadataFor&type=code

And then call ClassMetadataInterface->getAttributesMetadata() which returns array<string, AttributeMetadataInterface> with the key assuming to be the property name.
