Freeze实现了可哈希的、类型提示的冻结集合(dict、list和set)，并将递归地冻结你给他们的数据(如果可能的话)。

pip install frz

用法:

from freeze import FDict

a_mutable_dict = {
    "list": [1, 2],
    "set": {3, 4},
}

a_frozen_dict = FDict(a_mutable_dict)

print(repr(a_frozen_dict)) 
# FDict: {'list': FList: (1, 2), 'set': FSet: {3, 4}}

是的，这是我的第二个答案，但这是一个完全不同的方法。第一个实现是用纯python实现的。这是Cython的。如果您知道如何使用和编译Cython模块，这与使用常规字典一样快。大约0.04到0.06微秒来检索一个值。

这是frozen_dict。pyx文件

import cython
from collections import Mapping

cdef class dict_wrapper:
    cdef object d
    cdef int h

    def __init__(self, *args, **kw):
        self.d = dict(*args, **kw)
        self.h = -1

    def __len__(self):
        return len(self.d)

    def __iter__(self):
        return iter(self.d)

    def __getitem__(self, key):
        return self.d[key]

    def __hash__(self):
        if self.h == -1:
            self.h = hash(frozenset(self.d.iteritems()))
        return self.h

class FrozenDict(dict_wrapper, Mapping):
    def __repr__(self):
        c = type(self).__name__
        r = ', '.join('%r: %r' % (k,self[k]) for k in self)
        return '%s({%s})' % (c, r)

__all__ = ['FrozenDict']

这是setup。py文件

from distutils.core import setup
from Cython.Build import cythonize

setup(
    ext_modules = cythonize('frozen_dict.pyx')
)

如果安装了Cython，请将上述两个文件保存到同一目录中。在命令行中移动到该目录。

python setup.py build_ext --inplace
python setup.py install

你应该做完了。

安装frozendict

pip install frozendict

使用它!

from frozendict import frozendict

def smth(param = frozendict({})):
    pass

这是我一直在用的代码。我子类化了frozenset。这样做的优点如下。

这是一个真正的不可变对象。不依赖未来用户和开发人员的良好行为。 在常规字典和固定字典之间来回转换很容易。frozdict (orig_dict)—>冻结字典。字典(frozen_dict)—>常规字典。

2015年1月21日更新:我在2014年发布的原始代码使用for循环来查找匹配的键。这实在是太慢了。现在我已经组合了一个实现，它利用了frozenset的散列特性。键-值对存储在特殊的容器中，其中__hash__和__eq__函数仅基于键。这段代码也经过了正式的单元测试，这与我2014年8月在这里发布的代码不同。

class Item(tuple):
    ''' Designed for storing key-value pairs inside
        a FrozenDict, which itself is a subclass of frozenset.
        The __hash__ is overloaded to return the hash of only the key.
        __eq__ is overloaded so that normally it only checks whether the Item's
        key is equal to the other object, HOWEVER, if the other object itself
        is an instance of Item, it checks BOTH the key and value for equality.

        WARNING: Do not use this class for any purpose other than to contain
        key value pairs inside FrozenDict!!!!

        The __eq__ operator is overloaded in such a way that it violates a
        fundamental property of mathematics. That property, which says that
        a == b and b == c implies a == c, does not hold for this object.
        Here's a demonstration:
            [in]  >>> x = Item(('a',4))
            [in]  >>> y = Item(('a',5))

            [in]  >>> hash(y)
            [out] >>> 194817700
            [in]  >>> 'a' == x
            [out] >>> True
            [in]  >>> 'a' == y

每次写这样的函数时，我都会想到frozendict:

def do_something(blah, optional_dict_parm=None):
    if optional_dict_parm is None:
        optional_dict_parm = {}

子类化dict类型

我在野外(github)看到了这种模式，想提一下:

class FrozenDict(dict):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        self._hash = None
        super(FrozenDict, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)

    def __hash__(self):
        if self._hash is None:
            self._hash = hash(tuple(sorted(self.items())))  # iteritems() on py2
        return self._hash

    def _immutable(self, *args, **kws):
        raise TypeError('cannot change object - object is immutable')

    # makes (deep)copy alot more efficient
    def __copy__(self):
        return self

    def __deepcopy__(self, memo=None):
        if memo is not None:
            memo[id(self)] = self
        return self

    __setitem__ = _immutable
    __delitem__ = _immutable
    pop = _immutable
    popitem = _immutable
    clear = _immutable
    update = _immutable
    setdefault = _immutable

使用示例:

d1 = FrozenDict({'a': 1, 'b': 2})
d2 = FrozenDict({'a': 1, 'b': 2})
d1.keys() 
assert isinstance(d1, dict)
assert len(set([d1, d2])) == 1  # hashable

Pros

支持get()、keys()、items() (py2上的iteritems())以及dict中的所有功能，而无需显式地实现它们 使用内部dict，这意味着性能(dict在CPython中是用c编写的) 优雅简单，没有黑魔法 isinstance(my_frozen_dict, dict)返回True -尽管python鼓励使用isinstance()对许多包进行duck-typing，但这可以节省许多调整和自定义

Cons

任何子类都可以覆盖它或在内部访问它(你不能真正100%保护python中的某些东西，你应该相信你的用户并提供良好的文档)。 如果你关心速度，你可能想让__hash__更快一点。
