How to get index of enum case in array

Viewed 3978

I need to update associated value of Enum stored in an Array. How can I access the cell of the proper case without knowing its index?

enum MessageCell {
    case from(String)
    case to(String)
    case subject(String)
    case body(String)
}

var cells = [MessageCell.from(""), MessageCell.to(""), MessageCell.subject(""), MessageCell.body("")]

let recipient = "John"

// Hardcoded element position, avoid this
cells[1] = .to(recipient)

// How to find the index of .to case
if let index = cells.index(where: ({ ... }) {
    cells[index] = .to(recipient)
}
