Plugins/sorting/enum.js

/**
 * Sort data by a defined enumerated (enum) list. The options for the values in
 * the enum are defined by passing the values in an array to the method
 * `$.fn.dataTable.enum`. Type detection and sorting plug-ins for DataTables will
 * automatically be generated and added to the table.
 *
 * For full details and instructions please see [this DataTables blog
 * post](//datatables.net/blog/2016-06-16).
