简单地使用类表达式:

const singleton = new (class {
    hello() { return 'world'; }
})();

console.log(singleton.hello()); //=> world

Christian C. Salvadó和zzzzBov的回答都给出了精彩的答案，但只是添加我自己的解释，基于我已经从PHP/Zend框架转向了沉重的Node.js开发，其中单例模式是常见的。

以下注释记录的代码基于以下需求:

函数对象的一个且只有一个实例可以被实例化 实例不是公开可用的，只能通过公共方法访问 构造函数不是公开可用的，只有在没有可用实例的情况下才可以实例化 构造函数的声明必须允许修改其原型链。这将允许构造函数从其他原型继承，并为实例提供“公共”方法

我的代码与zzzzBov的答案非常相似，除了我在构造函数中添加了一个原型链和更多的注释，这些注释应该有助于那些来自PHP或类似语言的人将传统的OOP转换为JavaScript的原型性质。它可能不是最简单的，但我相信它是最合适的。

// Declare 'Singleton' as the returned value of a self-executing anonymous function
var Singleton = (function () {
    "use strict";
    // 'instance' and 'constructor' should not be available in a "public" scope
    // here they are "private", thus available only within
    // the scope of the self-executing anonymous function
    var _instance=null;
    var _constructor = function (name) {
        this.name = name || 'default';
    }

    // Prototypes will be "public" methods available from the instance
    _constructor.prototype.getName = function () {
        return this.name;
    }

    // Using the module pattern, return a static object
    // which essentially is a list of "public static" methods
    return {
        // Because getInstance is defined within the same scope
        // it can access the "private" 'instance' and 'constructor' vars
        getInstance:function (name) {
            if (!_instance) {
                console.log('creating'); // This should only happen once
                _instance = new _constructor(name);
            }
            console.log('returning');
            return _instance;
        }
    }

})(); // Self execute

// Ensure 'instance' and 'constructor' are unavailable
// outside the scope in which they were defined
// thus making them "private" and not "public"
console.log(typeof _instance); // undefined
console.log(typeof _constructor); // undefined

// Assign instance to two different variables
var a = Singleton.getInstance('first');
var b = Singleton.getInstance('second'); // passing a name here does nothing because the single instance was already instantiated

// Ensure 'a' and 'b' are truly equal
console.log(a === b); // true

console.log(a.getName()); // "first"
console.log(b.getName()); // Also returns "first" because it's the same instance as 'a'

请注意，从技术上讲，自执行匿名函数本身就是一个单例函数，Christian C. Salvadó提供的代码很好地演示了这一点。这里唯一的问题是，当构造函数本身是匿名的时，不可能修改构造函数的原型链。

请记住，在JavaScript中，“公共”和“私有”的概念并不像在PHP或Java中那样适用。但是，通过利用JavaScript的函数作用域可用性规则，我们也达到了同样的效果。

let MySingleton = (function () {
  var _instance
  function init() {
    if(!_instance) {
      _instance = { $knew: 1 }
    }
    return _instance
  }
  let publicAPIs = {
    getInstance: function() {
      return init()
    }
  }
  // this prevents customize the MySingleton, like MySingleton.x = 1
  Object.freeze(publicAPIs) 
  // this prevents customize the MySingleton.getInstance(), like MySingleton.getInstance().x = 1
  Object.freeze(publicAPIs.getInstance())
  return publicAPIs
})();

你可以这样做:

var singleton = new (function() {
  var bar = 123

  this.foo = function() {
    // Whatever
  }
})()

我的意见:我有一个构造函数(CF)，例如，

var A = function(arg1){
  this.arg1 = arg1
};

我只需要这个CF创建的每个对象都是相同的。

var X = function(){
  var instance = {};
  return function(){ return instance; }
}();

Test

var x1 = new X();
var x2 = new X();
console.log(x1 === x2)

我不确定我是否同意用模块模式来代替单例模式。我经常看到单例对象在完全没有必要的地方被使用和滥用，我确信模块模式填补了程序员使用单例对象的许多空白。然而，模块模式不是单例的。

模块模式:

var foo = (function () {
    "use strict";
    function aPrivateFunction() {}
    return { aPublicFunction: function () {...}, ... };
}());

在模块模式中初始化的所有内容都在声明Foo时发生。此外，模块模式可用于初始化构造函数，然后可以多次实例化构造函数。虽然模块模式是许多工作的正确工具，但它并不等同于单例模式。

单例模式:

简式

var Foo = function () {
    "use strict";
    if (Foo._instance) {
        // This allows the constructor to be called multiple times
        // and refer to the same instance. Another option is to
        // throw an error.
        return Foo._instance;
    }
    Foo._instance = this;
    // Foo initialization code
};
Foo.getInstance = function () {
    "use strict";
    return Foo._instance || new Foo();
}

长格式，使用模块模式

var Foo = (function () {
    "use strict";
    var instance; //prevent modification of "instance" variable
    function Singleton() {
        if (instance) {
            return instance;
        }
        instance = this;
        //Singleton initialization code
    }
    // Instance accessor
    Singleton.getInstance = function () {
        return instance || new Singleton();
    }
    return Singleton;
}());

在我提供的两个版本的单例模式中，构造函数本身都可以用作访问器:

var a,
    b;
a = new Foo(); // Constructor initialization happens here
b = new Foo();
console.log(a === b); //true

如果你不习惯这样使用构造函数，你可以在If (instance)语句中抛出一个错误，并坚持使用长形式:

var a,
    b;
a = Foo.getInstance(); // Constructor initialization happens here
b = Foo.getInstance();
console.log(a === b); // true

我还应该提到，单例模式很适合隐式构造函数模式:

function Foo() {
    if (Foo._instance) {
        return Foo._instance;
    }
    // If the function wasn't called as a constructor,
    // call it as a constructor and return the result
    if (!(this instanceof Foo)) {
        return new Foo();
    }
    Foo._instance = this;
}
var f = new Foo(); // Calls Foo as a constructor
-or-
var f = Foo(); // Also calls Foo as a constructor
