以上答案在我看来都不可靠。原因是使用了items()。据我所知，这是一个依赖于机器的顺序。

这个怎么样?

import hashlib

def dict_hash(the_dict, *ignore):
    if ignore:  # Sometimes you don't care about some items
        interesting = the_dict.copy()
        for item in ignore:
            if item in interesting:
                interesting.pop(item)
        the_dict = interesting
    result = hashlib.sha1(
        '%s' % sorted(the_dict.items())
    ).hexdigest()
    return result

您可以使用第三方frozendict模块来冻结dict并使其可哈希。

from frozendict import frozendict
my_dict = frozendict(my_dict)

为了处理嵌套对象，你可以使用:

import collections.abc

def make_hashable(x):
    if isinstance(x, collections.abc.Hashable):
        return x
    elif isinstance(x, collections.abc.Sequence):
        return tuple(make_hashable(xi) for xi in x)
    elif isinstance(x, collections.abc.Set):
        return frozenset(make_hashable(xi) for xi in x)
    elif isinstance(x, collections.abc.Mapping):
        return frozendict({k: make_hashable(v) for k, v in x.items()})
    else:
        raise TypeError("Don't know how to make {} objects hashable".format(type(x).__name__))

如果你想支持更多类型，请使用functools。singledispatch (Python 3.7):

@functools.singledispatch
def make_hashable(x):
    raise TypeError("Don't know how to make {} objects hashable".format(type(x).__name__))

@make_hashable.register
def _(x: collections.abc.Hashable):
    return x

@make_hashable.register
def _(x: collections.abc.Sequence):
    return tuple(make_hashable(xi) for xi in x)

@make_hashable.register
def _(x: collections.abc.Set):
    return frozenset(make_hashable(xi) for xi in x)

@make_hashable.register
def _(x: collections.abc.Mapping):
    return frozendict({k: make_hashable(v) for k, v in x.items()})

# add your own types here

这里有一个更清晰的解决方案。

def freeze(o):
  if isinstance(o,dict):
    return frozenset({ k:freeze(v) for k,v in o.items()}.items())

  if isinstance(o,list):
    return tuple([freeze(v) for v in o])

  return o


def make_hash(o):
    """
    makes a hash out of anything that contains only list,dict and hashable types including string and numeric types
    """
    return hash(freeze(o))  

下面的代码避免使用Python hash()函数，因为它不会在重新启动Python时提供一致的散列(参见Python 3.3中的散列函数在会话之间返回不同的结果)。make_hashable()将对象转换为嵌套的元组，make_hash_sha256()也将repr()转换为base64编码的SHA256散列。

import hashlib
import base64

def make_hash_sha256(o):
    hasher = hashlib.sha256()
    hasher.update(repr(make_hashable(o)).encode())
    return base64.b64encode(hasher.digest()).decode()

def make_hashable(o):
    if isinstance(o, (tuple, list)):
        return tuple((make_hashable(e) for e in o))

    if isinstance(o, dict):
        return tuple(sorted((k,make_hashable(v)) for k,v in o.items()))

    if isinstance(o, (set, frozenset)):
        return tuple(sorted(make_hashable(e) for e in o))

    return o

o = dict(x=1,b=2,c=[3,4,5],d={6,7})
print(make_hashable(o))
# (('b', 2), ('c', (3, 4, 5)), ('d', (6, 7)), ('x', 1))

print(make_hash_sha256(o))

    result = hashlib.sha1(

    ).hexdigest()
    return result

我是这样做的:

hash(str(my_dict))
