Description

When converting c# enum to typescript, it creates in different name.
c#
public enum TimePeriodType
{
Day,
Week,
Month,
Year,
All
}

Code generated:
export enum TimePeriodType {
NUMBER_0 = 0,
NUMBER_1 = 1,
NUMBER_2 = 2,
NUMBER_3 = 3,
NUMBER_4 = 4
};

How to accomplish with same name enum ?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported C# enum conversion with OpenAPI Generator 5.4.0 and inspect the TypeScript enum generation path. Done means the generated enum preserves Day, Week, Month, Year, and All instead of producing NUMBER_0 through NUMBER_4.
