def str2bool(v):
  return v.lower() in ("yes", "true", "t", "1")

然后像这样称呼它:

>>> str2bool("yes")
True
>>> str2bool("no")
False
>>> str2bool("stuff")
False
>>> str2bool("1")
True
>>> str2bool("0")
False

显式处理true和false:

您还可以使函数显式地检查True单词列表和False单词列表。然后，如果它不在两个列表中，则可以抛出异常。

我还被要求将一个函数的输入更改为bool，主要输入在字符串中仅为True或False。所以，我只是这样编码:

def string_to_bool(s):
    bool_flag = True
    if s == "False":
        bool_flag = False
    elif s == "True":
        bool_flag = True
    else:
        print("Invalid Input")
    return bool_flag

你也可以检查它是否有更短的真假，如Y/N或Y/N等。

实际上，你只是将字符串与你期望接受的表示true的字符串进行比较，所以你可以这样做:

s == 'True'

或者检查一大堆值:

s.lower() in ['true', '1', 't', 'y', 'yes', 'yeah', 'yup', 'certainly', 'uh-huh']

使用以下物品时请谨慎:

>>> bool("foo")
True
>>> bool("")
False

空字符串的值是False，但其他的值都是True。所以这个不应该用于任何解析目的。

这是我的版本。它同时检查正值和负值列表，对于未知值引发异常。它不接收字符串，但任何类型都可以。

这个答案使用了Django Rest Framework (DRF) 3.14中的代码。

你可以:

from rest_framework.fields import BooleanField
f = BooleanField(allow_null=True)
test_values = [ True, "True", "1", 1, -1, 1.0, "true", "t", "on",
         None, "null", "NULL",
         False, "False", "0", 0, "false", "f", 0.0, "off" ]
for item in test_values:
    r = f.to_internal_value(item)
    print(r)
   
# a shorter version
from rest_framework.fields import BooleanField
test_values = [ True, "True", "1", 1, -1, 1.0, "true", "t", "on",
         None, "null", "NULL",
         False, "False", "0", 0, "false", "f", 0.0, "off" ]
for item in test_values:
    print(BooleanField(allow_null=True).to_internal_value(item))

或者您可以调整BooleanField的代码，使其适合您的需要。下面是DRF 3.x中类BooleanField的实际代码

# from rest_framework.fields 
# ...

class BooleanField(Field):
    default_error_messages = {
        'invalid': _('Must be a valid boolean.')
    }
    default_empty_html = False
    initial = False
    TRUE_VALUES = {
        't', 'T',
        'y', 'Y', 'yes', 'Yes', 'YES',
        'true', 'True', 'TRUE',
        'on', 'On', 'ON',
        '1', 1,
        True
    }
    FALSE_VALUES = {
        'f', 'F',
        'n', 'N', 'no', 'No', 'NO',
        'false', 'False', 'FALSE',
        'off', 'Off', 'OFF',
        '0', 0, 0.0,
        False
    }
    NULL_VALUES = {'null', 'Null', 'NULL', '', None}
    
    def to_internal_value(self, data):
        try:
            if data in self.TRUE_VALUES:
                return True
            elif data in self.FALSE_VALUES:
                return False
            elif data in self.NULL_VALUES and self.allow_null:
                return None
        except TypeError:  # Input is an unhashable type
            pass
        self.fail('invalid', input=data)
    
    def to_representation(self, value):
        if value in self.TRUE_VALUES:
            return True
        elif value in self.FALSE_VALUES:
            return False
        if value in self.NULL_VALUES and self.allow_null:
            return None
        return bool(value)

# ...

这是我写的版本。将其他几个解决方案合并为一个。

def to_bool(value):
    """
    Converts 'something' to boolean. Raises exception if it gets a string it doesn't handle.
    Case is ignored for strings. These string values are handled:
      True: 'True', "1", "TRue", "yes", "y", "t"
      False: "", "0", "faLse", "no", "n", "f"
    Non-string values are passed to bool.
    """
    if type(value) == type(''):
        if value.lower() in ("yes", "y", "true",  "t", "1"):
            return True
        if value.lower() in ("no",  "n", "false", "f", "0", ""):
            return False
        raise Exception('Invalid value for boolean conversion: ' + value)
    return bool(value)

如果它得到一个字符串，它期望特定的值，否则引发异常。如果它没有得到一个字符串，就让bool构造函数来计算它。测试这些案例:

test_cases = [
    ('true', True),
    ('t', True),
    ('yes', True),
    ('y', True),
    ('1', True),
    ('false', False),
    ('f', False),
    ('no', False),
    ('n', False),
    ('0', False),
    ('', False),
    (1, True),
    (0, False),
    (1.0, True),
    (0.0, False),
    ([], False),
    ({}, False),
    ((), False),
    ([1], True),
    ({1:2}, True),
    ((1,), True),
    (None, False),
    (object(), True),
    ]
