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。
．．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")
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()
这种方式不停止对象。__setattr__从工作，但我仍然发现它有用:
class A(object):
def __new__(cls, children, *args, **kwargs):
self = super(A, cls).__new__(cls)
self._frozen = False # allow mutation from here to end of __init__
# other stuff you need to do in __new__ goes here
return self
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(A, self).__init__()
self._frozen = True # prevent future mutation
def __setattr__(self, name, value):
# need to special case setting _frozen.
if name != '_frozen' and self._frozen:
raise TypeError('Instances are immutable.')
else:
super(A, self).__setattr__(name, value)
def __delattr__(self, name):
if self._frozen:
raise TypeError('Instances are immutable.')
else:
super(A, self).__delattr__(name)
你可能需要根据用例重写更多的东西(比如__setitem__)。
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

return immutable({

def 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
最简单的方法是使用__slots__:
class A(object):
__slots__ = []
A的实例现在是不可变的，因为您不能在它们上设置任何属性。
如果你想让类实例包含数据，你可以将this和derived from tuple结合起来:
from operator import itemgetter
class Point(tuple):
__slots__ = []
def __new__(cls, x, y):
return tuple.__new__(cls, (x, y))
x = property(itemgetter(0))
y = property(itemgetter(1))
p = Point(2, 3)
p.x
# 2
p.y
# 3
编辑:如果你想摆脱索引，你可以重写__getitem__():
class Point(tuple):
__slots__ = []
def __new__(cls, x, y):
return tuple.__new__(cls, (x, y))
@property
def x(self):
return tuple.__getitem__(self, 0)
@property
def y(self):
return tuple.__getitem__(self, 1)
def __getitem__(self, item):
raise TypeError
注意，不能使用operator。在这种情况下，属性的itemgetter，因为这将依赖于Point.__getitem__()而不是tuple.__getitem__()。此外，这不会阻止使用元组。__getitem__(p, 0)，但我很难想象这应该如何构成一个问题。
我不认为创建不可变对象的“正确”方法是编写C扩展。Python通常依赖于库实现者和库用户是成年人，而不是真正强制执行接口，接口应该在文档中清楚地说明。这就是为什么我不认为通过调用object.__setattr__()来规避被重写的__setattr__()是一个问题的可能性。如果有人这么做，风险自负。
