Enums with associated values are awesome, but if many cases need to include the same data, it’s perhaps time to refactor that enum into a different solution — for example by wrapping it in a struct that contains the shared data.

Here all of our Warning enum’s cases contains a path, so to reduce duplication and making handling paths easier, we move it to a wrapping struct instead:

// Before

enum Warning {
    case fileUnreadable(path: String)
    case decodingFailed(path: String, DecodingError)
    case unknownError(path: String, Error)
}

// After

struct Warning {
    let path: String
    let reason: Reason
}

extension Warning {
    enum Reason {
        case fileUnreadable
        case decodingFailed(DecodingError)
        case unknownError(Error)
    }
}
