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('a')

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

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。

假设字典的键和值本身是不可变的(例如字符串)，那么:

>>> d
{'forever': 'atones', 'minks': 'cards', 'overhands': 'warranted', 
 'hardhearted': 'tartly', 'gradations': 'snorkeled'}
>>> t = tuple((k, d[k]) for k in sorted(d.keys()))
>>> hash(t)
1524953596

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}}

Python没有内置的frozendict类型。事实证明，这并不经常有用(尽管它仍然可能比frozenset更有用)。

需要这种类型的最常见原因是在记忆函数调用带有未知参数的函数时。存储dict(其中值是可哈希的)的可哈希等价对象的最常见解决方案是类似tuple(sorted(kwargs.items()))的东西。

这取决于排序是不是有点疯狂。Python不能肯定地保证排序会产生合理的结果。(但它不能承诺太多其他东西，所以不要太担心。)

你可以很容易地做一些类似字典的包装。它可能看起来像

import collections

class FrozenDict(collections.Mapping):
    """Don't forget the docstrings!!"""
    
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        self._d = dict(*args, **kwargs)
        self._hash = None

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

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

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

    def __hash__(self):
        # It would have been simpler and maybe more obvious to 
        # use hash(tuple(sorted(self._d.iteritems()))) from this discussion
        # so far, but this solution is O(n). I don't know what kind of 
        # n we are going to run into, but sometimes it's hard to resist the 
        # urge to optimize when it will gain improved algorithmic performance.
        if self._hash is None:
            hash_ = 0
            for pair in self.items():
                hash_ ^= hash(pair)
            self._hash = hash_
        return self._hash

它应该工作得很好:

>>> x = FrozenDict(a=1, b=2)
>>> y = FrozenDict(a=1, b=2)
>>> x is y
False
>>> x == y
True
>>> x == {'a': 1, 'b': 2}
True
>>> d = {x: 'foo'}
>>> d[y]
'foo'

安装frozendict

pip install frozendict

使用它!

    pass
