您可以在每次新的执行中返回相同的实例-

function Singleton() {
    // lazy 
    if (Singleton.prototype.myInstance == undefined) {
        Singleton.prototype.myInstance = { description: "I am the instance"};
    }
    return Singleton.prototype.myInstance;
}

a = new Singleton();
b = new Singleton();
console.log(a); // { description: "I am the instance"};
console.log(b); // { description: "I am the instance"};
console.log(a==b); // true

简短的回答:

由于JavaScript的非阻塞特性，JavaScript中的单例在使用时非常难看。全局变量将在整个应用程序中为您提供一个实例，而不需要所有这些回调，模块模式将内部隐藏在接口后面。参见Christian C. Salvadó的回答。

但是，既然你想要一个单胞胎……

var singleton = function(initializer) {

  var state = 'initial';
  var instance;
  var queue = [];

  var instanceReady = function(createdInstance) {
    state = 'ready';
    instance = createdInstance;
    while (callback = queue.shift()) {
      callback(instance);
    }
  };

  return function(callback) {
    if (state === 'initial') {
      state = 'waiting';
      queue.push(callback);
      initializer(instanceReady);
    } else if (state === 'waiting') {
      queue.push(callback);
    } else {
      callback(instance);
    }
  };

};

用法:

var singletonInitializer = function(instanceReady) {
  var preparedObject = {property: 'value'};
  // Calling instanceReady notifies the singleton that the instance is ready to use
  instanceReady(preparedObject);
}
var s = singleton(singletonInitializer);

// Get the instance and use it
s(function(instance) {
  instance.doSomething();
});

解释:

单例在整个应用程序中提供了不止一个实例:它们的初始化延迟到第一次使用。当您处理初始化开销很大的对象时，这确实是一个大问题。昂贵通常意味着I/O，在JavaScript中I/O总是意味着回调。

不要相信那些给出instance = singleton.getInstance()这样接口的答案，它们都没有抓住重点。

如果它们没有在实例就绪时运行回调，那么当初始化器执行I/O时，它们将不起作用。

是的，回调看起来总是比函数调用更丑，函数调用会立即返回一个对象实例。但是同样:当你执行I/O时，回调是必须的。如果你不想做任何I/O，那么在程序启动时实例化就足够便宜了。

例1，简单的初始化器:

var simpleInitializer = function(instanceReady) {
  console.log("Initializer started");
  instanceReady({property: "initial value"});
}

var simple = singleton(simpleInitializer);

console.log("Tests started. Singleton instance should not be initalized yet.");

simple(function(inst) {
  console.log("Access 1");
  console.log("Current property value: " + inst.property);
  console.log("Let's reassign this property");
  inst.property = "new value";
});
simple(function(inst) {
  console.log("Access 2");
  console.log("Current property value: " + inst.property);
});

例2，初始化I/O:

在这个例子中，setTimeout模拟了一些昂贵的I/O操作。这说明了为什么JavaScript中的单例真的需要回调。

var heavyInitializer = function(instanceReady) {
  console.log("Initializer started");
  var onTimeout = function() {
    console.log("Initializer did his heavy work");
    instanceReady({property: "initial value"});
  };
  setTimeout(onTimeout, 500);
};

var heavy = singleton(heavyInitializer);

console.log("In this example we will be trying");
console.log("to access singleton twice before it finishes initialization.");

heavy(function(inst) {
  console.log("Access 1");
  console.log("Current property value: " + inst.property);
  console.log("Let's reassign this property");
  inst.property = "new value";
});

heavy(function(inst) {
  console.log("Access 2. You can see callbacks order is preserved.");
  console.log("Current property value: " + inst.property);
});

console.log("We made it to the end of the file. Instance is not ready yet.");

我发现下面是最简单的单例模式，因为使用new操作符可以立即在函数中使用它，消除了返回对象字面量的需要:

Var singleton = new(函数(){ var private = "一个私有值"; 这一点。printSomething = function() { console.log(私人); ｝ }) (); singleton.printSomething ();

这个知识是基于我正在学习Java，虽然Java和Javascript是不同的，但单例的概念和Java如何做到这一点是一样的。在我看来，JS的类样式本身是干净的，而不是var初始化。

class Singleton {
    // use hashtag which entails that the variable can only be accessed from self scope
    static #instance = null;
    static getInstance() {
        if (this.#instance === null) this.#instance = new Singleton();
        return this.#instance;
    }

    // some class property
    hello = 'world';

    // or initialize the variable in the constructor, depend on your preference
    constructor() {
        // this.hello = 'world';
    }

    /* you can also add parameters on the constructor & getInstance
     * e.g. 
     * static getInstance(param1, param2) {...new Singleton(param1, param2)}
     * constructor(param1, param2) {...}
     */

}




// this is the same code for java and normal way for singleton for class
// just use static so you can get instance


// testing the singleton
var s1,s2;
s1 = Singleton.getInstance();
s2 = Singleton.getInstance();

// you cannot access the property, immediately
if (Singleton.hello === undefined) console.log('getInstance so you can access this');

console.log(s1.hello);
// result: "world"

console.log(s2.hello);
// result: "world"


// set the value of Singleton object
s2.hello = "hi";
    console.log(s1.hello);
    // result: "hi"

    console.log(s2.hello);
    // result: "hi"
// this is just an evidence which means that they are the same even in property level

if (s1 === s2) console.log("S1 & S2 is the same object");
// result: "S1 & S2 is the same object"

// don't use something like `var s1 = new Singleton();`
// this will defeat your purpose of just (1 object), one instance of class

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。)

关键是要理解闭包背后的重要性。因此，在闭包的帮助下，即使在内部函数内部的属性也将是私有的。

var Singleton = function () {
    var instance;

    function init() {

       function privateMethod() {
           console.log("private via closure");
       }

       var privateVariable = "Private Property";

       var privateRandomNumber = Math.random(); // This is also private

       return {
           getRandomNumber: function () {  // Access via getter in init call
               return privateRandomNumber;
           }
       };
    };

    return {
        getInstance: function () {

            if (!instance) {
                instance = init();
            }
            return instance;
        }
    };
};
