how to use C# enum list in typescript

This is my enum list class in C# 

   namespace MyProject.MyName
    {
   public enum MyNameList
     {
    [Description("NameOne")]
    NameOne,

    [Description("NameTwo")]
    NameTwo,

    [Description("NameThree")]
    NameThree
        }
      }

And this is how I use this enum list inside C# .cshtml razor and javascript 

    @using MyProject.MyName
     ....
     ....
     <script>
          ..
          ..
      if (result.data == @((int)MyNameList.NameOne))
          ..
          ..
     </script>

Now I have to write this (javascript) code in Typescript and how can I use my Enum list MyNameList inside Typescript ??

You need to create a new typescript definition file, for example, nameList.d.ts

export enum MyNameList
{
    NameOne,
    NameTwo,
    NameThree
}

Inside Typescript file, import like this

import { MyNameList } from "./nameList";

And now you can use those enum list inside typescript like 

MyNameList.NameOne

The javascript is executed on the local browser. You would not be able to use Enum directly there.

You can return the Enum value as a part of response and then compare the enum value in JS.

You can add enum in typescript and then use it to compare with the response fields.

enum Direction {
    Up = "UP",
    Down = "DOWN",
    Left = "LEFT",
    Right = "RIGHT",
}
