question: How can I validate a union of strings?

[stefan-bc-ts]

I was trying to...
use export type ValidateValues = ‘val1’ | ‘val2’ | ‘val3’;
with @type to make sure the values are correct

The problem:

@Type((_) => ValidateValues)
'ValidateValues' only refers to a type, but is being used as a value here

PS: I was trying to avoid using a enum

I'm moving this to the discussion tab, as we are trying to keep the issue count low. Please see this issue for an explanation.
