我已经创建了一个小型类装饰器decorator，以使类不可变(除了在__init__内部)。作为https://github.com/google/etils的一部分。

from etils import epy


@epy.frozen
class A:

  def __init__(self):
    self.x = 123  # Inside `__init__`, attribute can be assigned

a = A()
a.x = 456  # AttributeError

这也支持继承。

实现:

_Cls = TypeVar('_Cls')


def frozen(cls: _Cls) -> _Cls:
  """Class decorator which prevent mutating attributes after `__init__`."""
  if not isinstance(cls, type):
    raise TypeError(f'{cls.__name__} is not a class.')

  cls.__init__ = _wrap_init(cls.__init__)
  cls.__setattr__ = _wrap_setattr(cls.__setattr__)
  return cls


def _wrap_init(init_fn):
  """`__init__` wrapper."""

  @functools.wraps(init_fn)
  def new_init(self, *args, **kwargs):
    if hasattr(self, '_epy_is_init_done'):
      # `_epy_is_init_done` already created, so it means we're
      # a `super().__init__` call.
      return init_fn(self, *args, **kwargs)
    object.__setattr__(self, '_epy_is_init_done', False)
    init_fn(self, *args, **kwargs)
    object.__setattr__(self, '_epy_is_init_done', True)

  return new_init

def _wrap_setattr(setattr_fn):
  """`__setattr__` wrapper."""

  @functools.wraps(setattr_fn)
  def new_setattr(self, name, value):
    if not hasattr(self, '_epy_is_init_done'):
      raise ValueError(
          'Child of `@epy.frozen` class should be `@epy.frozen` too. (Error'
          f' raised by {type(self)})'
      )
    if not self._epy_is_init_done:  # pylint: disable=protected-access
      return setattr_fn(self, name, value)
    else:
      raise AttributeError(
          f'Cannot assign {name!r} in `@epy.frozen` class {type(self)}'
      )

  return new_setattr

我找到了一种方法，不用子类化tuple, namedtuple等。你所需要做的就是在初始化后禁用setattr和delattr(如果你想让一个集合成为不可变的，也要禁用setitem和delitem):

def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
    # something here

    self.lock()

其中lock可以是这样的:

@classmethod
def lock(cls):
    def raiser(*a):
        raise TypeError('this instance is immutable')

    cls.__setattr__ = raiser
    cls.__delattr__ = raiser
    if hasattr(cls, '__setitem__'):
        cls.__setitem__ = raiser
        cls.__delitem__ = raiser

你可以用这个方法创建类Immutable，并像我展示的那样使用它。

如果你不想在每个init中都写self.lock()，你可以用元类自动实现:

class ImmutableType(type):
    @classmethod
    def change_init(mcs, original_init_method):
        def __new_init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
            if callable(original_init_method):
                original_init_method(self, *args, **kwargs)

            cls = self.__class__

            def raiser(*a):
                raise TypeError('this instance is immutable')

            cls.__setattr__ = raiser
            cls.__delattr__ = raiser
            if hasattr(cls, '__setitem__'):
                cls.__setitem__ = raiser
                cls.__delitem__ = raiser

        return __new_init__

    def __new__(mcs, name, parents, kwargs):
        kwargs['__init__'] = mcs.change_init(kwargs.get('__init__'))
        return type.__new__(mcs, name, parents, kwargs)


class Immutable(metaclass=ImmutableType):
    pass

Test

class SomeImmutableClass(Immutable):
    def __init__(self, some_value: int):
        self.important_attr = some_value

    def some_method(self):
        return 2 * self.important_attr


ins = SomeImmutableClass(3)
print(ins.some_method())  # 6
ins.important_attr += 1  # TypeError
ins.another_attr = 2  # TypeError

另一个想法是完全不允许__setattr__而使用object。构造函数中的__setattr__:

class Point(object):
    def __init__(self, x, y):
        object.__setattr__(self, "x", x)
        object.__setattr__(self, "y", y)
    def __setattr__(self, *args):
        raise TypeError
    def __delattr__(self, *args):
        raise TypeError

当然你可以用object。__setattr__(p， "x"， 3)来修改一个Point实例p，但您的原始实现遭受同样的问题(尝试tuple。__setattr__(i， "x"， 42)在一个不可变实例)。

您可以在原始实现中应用相同的技巧:去掉__getitem__()，并在属性函数中使用tuple.__getitem__()。

继承自以下Immutable类的类，在它们的__init__方法执行完成后，它们的实例也是不可变的。正如其他人指出的那样，因为它是纯python，所以没有什么可以阻止某人使用来自基对象和类型的特殊方法的突变，但这足以阻止任何人意外地突变类/实例。

它通过用元类劫持类创建过程来工作。

immutabilityTest(T.class_mutation, '__setattr__')
immutabilityTest(T(6).instance_mutation, '__setattr__')
immutabilityTest(T(6).not_so_special_mutation, '__iadd__')

另一种方法是创建一个使实例不可变的包装器。

class Immutable(object):

    def __init__(self, wrapped):
        super(Immutable, self).__init__()
        object.__setattr__(self, '_wrapped', wrapped)

    def __getattribute__(self, item):
        return object.__getattribute__(self, '_wrapped').__getattribute__(item)

    def __setattr__(self, key, value):
        raise ImmutableError('Object {0} is immutable.'.format(self._wrapped))

    __delattr__ = __setattr__

    def __iter__(self):
        return object.__getattribute__(self, '_wrapped').__iter__()

    def next(self):
        return object.__getattribute__(self, '_wrapped').next()

    def __getitem__(self, item):
        return object.__getattribute__(self, '_wrapped').__getitem__(item)

immutable_instance = Immutable(my_instance)

这在只有一些实例必须是不可变的情况下很有用(比如函数调用的默认参数)。

也可以用于不可变工厂，如:

@classmethod
def immutable_factory(cls, *args, **kwargs):
    return Immutable(cls.__init__(*args, **kwargs))

也保护对象。__setattr__，但由于Python的动态特性，可能会被其他技巧所绊倒。

使用冻结的数据类

对于Python 3.7+，你可以使用带frozen=True选项的数据类，这是一种非常Python化和可维护的方式来做你想做的事情。

它看起来是这样的:

from dataclasses import dataclass

@dataclass(frozen=True)
class Immutable:
    a: Any
    b: Any

由于数据类的字段需要类型提示，所以我使用了typing模块中的Any。

不使用命名元组的原因

在Python 3.7之前，经常可以看到命名元组被用作不可变对象。它在很多方面都很棘手，其中之一是命名元组之间的__eq__方法不考虑对象的类。例如:

from collections import namedtuple

ImmutableTuple = namedtuple("ImmutableTuple", ["a", "b"])
ImmutableTuple2 = namedtuple("ImmutableTuple2", ["a", "c"])

obj1 = ImmutableTuple(a=1, b=2)
obj2 = ImmutableTuple2(a=1, c=2)

obj1 == obj2  # will be True

如你所见，即使obj1和obj2的类型不同，即使它们的字段名称不同，obj1 == obj2仍然给出True。这是因为使用的__eq__方法是元组的方法，它只比较给定位置的字段的值。这可能是一个巨大的错误来源，特别是如果您是子类化这些类。
