这是我自己的单线图实现。你所要做的就是装饰课堂；要获得单例，您必须使用Instance方法。下面是一个示例：

@Singleton
class Foo:
    def __init__(self):
        print 'Foo created'

f = Foo() # Error, this isn't how you get the instance of a singleton

f = Foo.Instance() # Good. Being explicit is in line with the Python Zen
g = Foo.Instance() # Returns already created instance

print f is g # True

下面是代码：

class Singleton:
    """
    A non-thread-safe helper class to ease implementing singletons.
    This should be used as a decorator -- not a metaclass -- to the
    class that should be a singleton.

    The decorated class can define one `__init__` function that
    takes only the `self` argument. Other than that, there are
    no restrictions that apply to the decorated class.
 
    To get the singleton instance, use the `Instance` method. Trying
    to use `__call__` will result in a `TypeError` being raised.

    Limitations: The decorated class cannot be inherited from.

    """

    def __init__(self, decorated):
        self._decorated = decorated

    def Instance(self):
        """
        Returns the singleton instance. Upon its first call, it creates a
        new instance of the decorated class and calls its `__init__` method.
        On all subsequent calls, the already created instance is returned.

        """
        try:
            return self._instance
        except AttributeError:
            self._instance = self._decorated()
            return self._instance

    def __call__(self):
        raise TypeError('Singletons must be accessed through `Instance()`.')

    def __instancecheck__(self, inst):
        return isinstance(inst, self._decorated)

好吧，除了同意Pythonic关于模块级全局的一般建议之外，这又如何呢

def singleton(class_):
    class class_w(class_):
        _instance = None
        def __new__(class2, *args, **kwargs):
            if class_w._instance is None:
                class_w._instance = super(class_w, class2).__new__(class2, *args, **kwargs)
                class_w._instance._sealed = False
            return class_w._instance
        def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
            if self._sealed:
                return
            super(class_w, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
            self._sealed = True
    class_w.__name__ = class_.__name__
    return class_w

@singleton
class MyClass(object):
    def __init__(self, text):
        print text
    @classmethod
    def name(class_):
        print class_.__name__

x = MyClass(111)
x.name()
y = MyClass(222)
print id(x) == id(y)

输出为：

111     # the __init__ is called only on the 1st time
MyClass # the __name__ is preserved
True    # this is actually the same instance

我想指出的是，第一种方法定义了一个查找字典，直到今天我都不理解，而且我看到这个解决方案遍布各地，所以我想每个人都只是从这里复制粘贴它。

我说的是这个：

def singleton(class_):
    instances = {} # <-- will always only have one entry.
    def getinstance(*args, **kwargs):
        if class_ not in instances:
            instances[class_] = class_(*args, **kwargs)
        return instances[class_]
    return getinstance

对于元类解决方案来说，这是有意义的，但对于一次性装饰器解决方案，每次调用装饰器时，都会定义一个新函数，以及一个新的实例变量，因此每个“实例”始终只有一个条目，除非您将其设为全局。无论如何，它也不适用于继承。

一种类似但更简单且可调节性更好的解决方案：

def singleton(class_):
    def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
        if not wrapper._instance:
            wrapper._instance = class_(*args, **kwargs)
        return wrapper._instance

    wrapper._instance = None
    return wrapper

添加一个简单

    ...
    wrapper.__wrapped__ = class_
    return wrapper

同样，通过访问wrapped也允许继承或模仿，这在内部dict查找中也是不可能的。

（当然，如果我只是不理解查字典背后的奥秘，请原谅我。也许是我的错，不理解查词典背后的具体意图）

如果要将实例用作属性，可以使用元类。例如

class SingletonMeta(type):
    def __init__(cls, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        cls._instance = None
        cls._locker = threading.Lock()

    @property
    def instance(self, *args, **kwargs):
        if self._instance is None:
            with self._locker:
                if self._instance is None:
                    self._instance = self(*args, **kwargs)
        return self._instance


class MyClass(metaclass=SingletonMeta):
    def __init__(self):
        # init here
        pass


# get the instance
my_class_instance = MyClass.instance

使用函数属性也非常简单

def f():
    if not hasattr(f, 'value'):
        setattr(f, 'value', singletonvalue)
    return f.value

经过一段时间的努力，我终于想出了以下方法，这样当从单独的模块调用时，配置对象只能加载一次。元类允许将全局类实例存储在内置dict中，目前看来这是存储适当程序全局的最整洁的方式。

import builtins

# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# So..... you would expect that a class would be "global" in scope, however
#   when different modules use this,
#   EACH ONE effectively has its own class namespace.  
#   In order to get around this, we use a metaclass to intercept
#   "new" and provide the "truly global metaclass instance" if it already exists

class MetaConfig(type):
    def __new__(cls, name, bases, dct):
        try:
            class_inst = builtins.CONFIG_singleton

        except AttributeError:
            class_inst = super().__new__(cls, name, bases, dct)
            builtins.CONFIG_singleton = class_inst
            class_inst.do_load()

        return class_inst

# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

class Config(metaclass=MetaConfig):

    config_attr = None

    @classmethod
    def do_load(cls):
        ...<load-cfg-from-file>...
