我有一个类MyClass,它包含两个成员变量foo和bar:

class MyClass:
    def __init__(self, foo, bar):
        self.foo = foo
        self.bar = bar

我有这个类的两个实例,每个实例都有相同的foo和bar值:

x = MyClass('foo', 'bar')
y = MyClass('foo', 'bar')

然而,当我比较它们是否相等时,Python返回False:

>>> x == y
False

我如何使python认为这两个对象相等?

下面通过在两个对象层次结构之间进行深度比较来工作(在我有限的测试中)。In处理各种情况,包括对象本身或其属性是字典的情况。

def deep_comp(o1:Any, o2:Any)->bool:
    # NOTE: dict don't have __dict__
    o1d = getattr(o1, '__dict__', None)
    o2d = getattr(o2, '__dict__', None)

    # if both are objects
    if o1d is not None and o2d is not None:
        # we will compare their dictionaries
        o1, o2 = o1.__dict__, o2.__dict__

    if o1 is not None and o2 is not None:
        # if both are dictionaries, we will compare each key
        if isinstance(o1, dict) and isinstance(o2, dict):
            for k in set().union(o1.keys() ,o2.keys()):
                if k in o1 and k in o2:
                    if not deep_comp(o1[k], o2[k]):
                        return False
                else:
                    return False # some key missing
            return True
    # mismatched object types or both are scalers, or one or both None
    return o1 == o2

这是一个非常棘手的代码,所以请在注释中添加任何可能不适合你的情况。

其他回答

总结如下:

It's advised to implement __eq__ rather than __cmp__, except if you run python <= 2.0 (__eq__ has been added in 2.1) Don't forget to also implement __ne__ (should be something like return not self.__eq__(other) or return not self == other except very special case) Don`t forget that the operator must be implemented in each custom class you want to compare (see example below). If you want to compare with object that can be None, you must implement it. The interpreter cannot guess it ... (see example below) class B(object): def __init__(self): self.name = "toto" def __eq__(self, other): if other is None: return False return self.name == other.name class A(object): def __init__(self): self.toto = "titi" self.b_inst = B() def __eq__(self, other): if other is None: return False return (self.toto, self.b_inst) == (other.toto, other.b_inst)

你应该实现方法__eq__:

class MyClass:
    def __init__(self, foo, bar):
        self.foo = foo
        self.bar = bar
        
    def __eq__(self, other): 
        if not isinstance(other, MyClass):
            # don't attempt to compare against unrelated types
            return NotImplemented

        return self.foo == other.foo and self.bar == other.bar

现在它输出:

>>> x == y
True

注意,实现__eq__将自动使类的实例不可哈希,这意味着它们不能存储在集和字典中。如果你不是建模一个不可变的类型(例如,如果属性foo和bar可能会在你的对象的生命周期内改变值),那么建议把你的实例保留为不可哈希的。

如果你正在建模一个不可变类型,你还应该实现数据模型钩子__hash__:

class MyClass:
    ...

    def __hash__(self):
        # necessary for instances to behave sanely in dicts and sets.
        return hash((self.foo, self.bar))

一般的解决方案,比如循环__dict__并比较值的想法,是不可取的——它永远不可能真正通用,因为__dict__可能包含不可比较或不可哈希的类型。

注意:在Python 3之前,你可能需要使用__cmp__而不是__eq__。Python 2用户可能还想实现__ne__,因为在Python 2中不会自动创建一个合理的不等式默认行为(即反转相等结果)。

在你的类中实现__eq__方法;就像这样:

def __eq__(self, other):
    return self.path == other.path and self.title == other.title

编辑:如果你想让你的对象比较相等当且仅当它们有相等的实例字典:

def __eq__(self, other):
    return self.__dict__ == other.__dict__

我写了这个,并把它放在我的项目中的test/utils模块中。对于情况下,当它不是一个类,只是计划ol' dict,这将遍历两个对象,并确保

每个属性都与其对应的属性相等 不存在悬空属性(只存在于一个对象上的attrs)

它的大…这一点都不性感……但是,哦,boi,它工作!

def assertObjectsEqual(obj_a, obj_b):

    def _assert(a, b):
        if a == b:
            return
        raise AssertionError(f'{a} !== {b} inside assertObjectsEqual')

    def _check(a, b):
        if a is None or b is None:
            _assert(a, b)
        for k,v in a.items():
            if isinstance(v, dict):
                assertObjectsEqual(v, b[k])
            else:
                _assert(v, b[k])

    # Asserting both directions is more work
    # but it ensures no dangling values on
    # on either object
    _check(obj_a, obj_b)
    _check(obj_b, obj_a)

您可以通过删除_assert并使用普通的ol' assert来稍微清理它,但当它失败时,您得到的消息是非常没有帮助的。

重写对象中的富比较运算符。

class MyClass:
 def __lt__(self, other):
      # return comparison
 def __le__(self, other):
      # return comparison
 def __eq__(self, other):
      # return comparison
 def __ne__(self, other):
      # return comparison
 def __gt__(self, other):
      # return comparison
 def __ge__(self, other):
      # return comparison

是这样的:

    def __eq__(self, other):
        return self._id == other._id
