虽然我从来都不需要这样做,但我突然意识到用Python创建一个不可变对象可能有点棘手。你不能只是覆盖__setattr__,因为这样你甚至不能在__init__中设置属性。子类化一个元组是一个有效的技巧:
class Immutable(tuple):
def __new__(cls, a, b):
return tuple.__new__(cls, (a, b))
@property
def a(self):
return self[0]
@property
def b(self):
return self[1]
def __str__(self):
return "<Immutable {0}, {1}>".format(self.a, self.b)
def __setattr__(self, *ignored):
raise NotImplementedError
def __delattr__(self, *ignored):
raise NotImplementedError
但是你可以通过self[0]和self[1]访问a和b变量,这很烦人。
这在Pure Python中可行吗?如果不是,我该如何用C扩展来做呢?
(只能在python3中工作的答案是可以接受的)。
更新:
从Python 3.7开始,要使用的方法是使用@dataclass装饰器,参见最新接受的答案。
下面的基本解决方案针对以下场景:
__init__()可以像往常一样访问属性。
在此之后,对象仅冻结属性更改:
其思想是覆盖__setattr__方法,并在每次对象冻结状态改变时替换其实现。
因此,我们需要一些方法(_freeze)来存储这两个实现,并在请求时在它们之间切换。
这个机制可以在用户类内部实现,也可以从一个特殊的freeze类继承,如下所示:
class Freezer:
def _freeze(self, do_freeze=True):
def raise_sa(*args):
raise AttributeError("Attributes are frozen and can not be changed!")
super().__setattr__('_active_setattr', (super().__setattr__, raise_sa)[do_freeze])
def __setattr__(self, key, value):
return self._active_setattr(key, value)
class A(Freezer):
def __init__(self):
self._freeze(False)
self.x = 10
self._freeze()
从Python 3.7开始,你可以在你的类中使用@dataclass装饰器,它将像结构体一样是不可变的!不过,它可能会也可能不会将__hash__()方法添加到类中。引用:
hash() is used by built-in hash(), and when objects are added to hashed collections such as dictionaries and sets. Having a hash() implies that instances of the class are immutable. Mutability is a complicated property that depends on the programmer’s intent, the existence and behavior of eq(), and the values of the eq and frozen flags in the dataclass() decorator.
By default, dataclass() will not implicitly add a hash() method unless it is safe to do so. Neither will it add or change an existing explicitly defined hash() method. Setting the class attribute hash = None has a specific meaning to Python, as described in the hash() documentation.
If hash() is not explicit defined, or if it is set to None, then dataclass() may add an implicit hash() method. Although not recommended, you can force dataclass() to create a hash() method with unsafe_hash=True. This might be the case if your class is logically immutable but can nonetheless be mutated. This is a specialized use case and should be considered carefully.
下面是上面链接的文档中的例子:
@dataclass
class InventoryItem:
'''Class for keeping track of an item in inventory.'''
name: str
unit_price: float
quantity_on_hand: int = 0
def total_cost(self) -> float:
return self.unit_price * self.quantity_on_hand
就像字典一样
我有一个开源库,在那里我以函数的方式做事情,所以在不可变对象中移动数据是有帮助的。但是,我不希望必须转换我的数据对象以便客户机与它们交互。所以,我想到了这个-它给你一个字典一样的对象,这是不可变的+一些帮助方法。
这要归功于Sven Marnach对限制属性更新和删除的基本执行的回答。
import json
# ^^ optional - If you don't care if it prints like a dict
# then rip this and __str__ and __repr__ out
class Immutable(object):
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
"""Sets all values once given
whatever is passed in kwargs
"""
for k,v in kwargs.items():
object.__setattr__(self, k, v)
def __setattr__(self, *args):
"""Disables setting attributes via
item.prop = val or item['prop'] = val
"""
raise TypeError('Immutable objects cannot have properties set after init')
def __delattr__(self, *args):
"""Disables deleting properties"""
raise TypeError('Immutable objects cannot have properties deleted')
def __getitem__(self, item):
"""Allows for dict like access of properties

return self.__dict__[item]
def __repr__(self):

return self.pprint()
def __str__(self):
"""Convert to a str in a dict like fashion"""
return self.pprint()
def __eq__(self, other):

if other is None:
return False
return self.dict() == other.dict()
def keys(self):
"""Paired with __getitem__ supports **unpacking

"""
return self.__dict__.keys()
def get(self, *args, **kwargs):

return self.__dict__.get(*args, **kwargs)
def pprint(self):
"""Helper method used for printing that

"""
return json.dumps(self,
default=lambda o: o.__dict__,
sort_keys=True,
indent=4)
def dict(self):
"""Helper method for getting the raw dict value
of the immutable object"""
return self.__dict__
辅助方法
def update(obj, **kwargs):
"""Returns a new instance of the given object with
all key/val in kwargs set on it
"""
return immutable({
**obj,
**kwargs
})
def immutable(obj):
return Immutable(**obj)
例子
obj = immutable({
'alpha': 1,
'beta': 2,
'dalet': 4
})
obj.alpha # 1
obj['alpha'] # 1
obj.get('beta') # 2
del obj['alpha'] # TypeError
obj.alpha = 2 # TypeError
new_obj = update(obj, alpha=10)
new_obj is not obj # True
new_obj.get('alpha') == 10 # True
如果您对具有行为的对象感兴趣,那么namedtuple几乎是您的解决方案。
正如namedtuple文档底部所描述的,您可以从namedtuple派生自己的类;然后,你可以添加你想要的行为。
例如(代码直接取自文档):
class Point(namedtuple('Point', 'x y')):
__slots__ = ()
@property
def hypot(self):
return (self.x ** 2 + self.y ** 2) ** 0.5
def __str__(self):
return 'Point: x=%6.3f y=%6.3f hypot=%6.3f' % (self.x, self.y, self.hypot)
for p in Point(3, 4), Point(14, 5/7):
print(p)
这将导致:
Point: x= 3.000 y= 4.000 hypot= 5.000
Point: x=14.000 y= 0.714 hypot=14.018
这种方法适用于Python 3和Python 2.7(在IronPython上也进行了测试)。
唯一的缺点是继承树有点奇怪;但这不是你经常玩的东西。
..如何在C中“正确地”做这件事?
你可以使用Cython为Python创建一个扩展类型:
cdef class Immutable:
cdef readonly object a, b
cdef object __weakref__ # enable weak referencing support
def __init__(self, a, b):
self.a, self.b = a, b
它既适用于Python 2。X和3。
测试
# compile on-the-fly
import pyximport; pyximport.install() # $ pip install cython
from immutable import Immutable
o = Immutable(1, 2)
assert o.a == 1, str(o.a)
assert o.b == 2
try: o.a = 3
except AttributeError:
pass
else:
assert 0, 'attribute must be readonly'
try: o[1]
except TypeError:
pass
else:
assert 0, 'indexing must not be supported'
try: o.c = 1
except AttributeError:
pass
else:
assert 0, 'no new attributes are allowed'
o = Immutable('a', [])
assert o.a == 'a'
assert o.b == []
o.b.append(3) # attribute may contain mutable object
assert o.b == [3]
try: o.c
except AttributeError:
pass
else:
assert 0, 'no c attribute'
o = Immutable(b=3,a=1)
assert o.a == 1 and o.b == 3
try: del o.b
except AttributeError:
pass
else:
assert 0, "can't delete attribute"
d = dict(b=3, a=1)
o = Immutable(**d)
assert o.a == d['a'] and o.b == d['b']
o = Immutable(1,b=3)
assert o.a == 1 and o.b == 3
try: object.__setattr__(o, 'a', 1)
except AttributeError:
pass
else:
assert 0, 'attributes are readonly'
try: object.__setattr__(o, 'c', 1)
except AttributeError:
pass
else:
assert 0, 'no new attributes'
try: Immutable(1,c=3)
except TypeError:
pass
else:
assert 0, 'accept only a,b keywords'
for kwd in [dict(a=1), dict(b=2)]:
try: Immutable(**kwd)
except TypeError:
pass
else:
assert 0, 'Immutable requires exactly 2 arguments'
如果你不介意索引支持,那么@Sven Marnach建议的collections.namedtuple是更可取的:
Immutable = collections.namedtuple("Immutable", "a b")
