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")
我通过重写__setattr__创建了不可变类，并且如果调用者是__init__，则允许该集合:
import inspect
class Immutable(object):
def __setattr__(self, name, value):
if inspect.stack()[2][3] != "__init__":
raise Exception("Can't mutate an Immutable: self.%s = %r" % (name, value))
object.__setattr__(self, name, value)
这还不够，因为它允许任何人的___init__来改变对象，但你懂的。
您可以覆盖setattr，仍然使用init来设置变量。你可以使用超类setattr。这是代码。
class Immutable:
__slots__ = ('a','b')
def __init__(self, a , b):
super().__setattr__('a',a)
super().__setattr__('b',b)
def __str__(self):
return "".format(self.a, self.b)
def __setattr__(self, *ignored):
raise NotImplementedError
def __delattr__(self, *ignored):
raise NotImplementedError
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。
