function Once() {
    return this.constructor.instance || (this.constructor.instance = this);
}

function Application(name) {
    let app = Once.call(this);

    app.name = name;

    return app;
}

如果你在上课:

class Once {
    constructor() {
        return this.constructor.instance || (this.constructor.instance = this);
    }
}

class Application extends Once {
    constructor(name) {
        super();

        this.name = name;
    }
}

测试:

console.log(new Once() === new Once());

let app1 = new Application('Foobar');
let app2 = new Application('Barfoo');

console.log(app1 === app2);
console.log(app1.name); // Barfoo

通常，模块模式(参见Christian C. Salvadó的答案)不是单例模式就足够好了。然而，单例的一个特点是它的初始化会延迟到需要对象时。模块模式缺乏这个特性。

我的命题(CoffeeScript):

window.singleton = (initializer) ->
  instance = undefined
  () ->
    return instance unless instance is undefined
    instance = initializer()

在JavaScript中编译为:

window.singleton = function(initializer) {
    var instance;
    instance = void 0;
    return function() {
        if (instance !== void 0) {
            return instance;
        }
        return instance = initializer();
    };
};

然后我可以做以下事情:

window.iAmSingleton = singleton(function() {
    /* This function should create and initialize singleton. */
    alert("creating");
    return {property1: 'value1', property2: 'value2'};
});


alert(window.iAmSingleton().property2); // "creating" will pop up; then "value2" will pop up
alert(window.iAmSingleton().property2); // "value2" will pop up but "creating" will not
window.iAmSingleton().property2 = 'new value';
alert(window.iAmSingleton().property2); // "new value" will pop up

function Unicode()
{
  var i = 0, unicode = {}, zero_padding = "0000", max = 9999;

  // Loop through code points
  while (i < max) {
    // Convert decimal to hex value, find the character,
    // and then pad zeroes to the code point
    unicode[String.fromCharCode(parseInt(i, 16))] = ("u" + zero_padding + i).substr(-4);
    i = i + 1;
  }

  // Replace this function with the resulting lookup table
  Unicode = unicode;
}

// Usage
Unicode();

// Lookup
Unicode["%"]; // Returns 0025

如果你正在使用node.JS，那么你可以利用node.JS的缓存机制，你的单例将像这样简单:

class Singleton {
    constructor() {
        this.message = 'I am an instance';
    }
}
module.exports = new Singleton();

请注意，我们导出的不是类Singleton，而是实例Singleton()。

Node.JS将在每次需要时缓存和重用相同的对象。

更多细节请查看:Node.JS和单例模式

这也是一个单例:

function Singleton() {
    var i = 0;
    var self = this;

    this.doStuff = function () {
        i = i + 1;
        console.log('do stuff', i);
    };

    Singleton = function () { return self };
    return this;
}

s = Singleton();
s.doStuff();

对我来说，最干净的方法是:

const singleton = new class {
    name = "foo"
    constructor() {
        console.log(`Singleton ${this.name} constructed`)
    }
}

使用这种语法，您可以确定您的单例是并且将保持惟一的。您还可以享受类语法的甜蜜，并按预期使用它。

(注意，类字段需要节点v12+或现代浏览器。)
