用JavaScript实现单例模式的最简单/最干净的方法是什么?


当前回答

你可以这样做:

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

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

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.");

如果你想使用类:

class Singleton {
  constructor(name, age) {
    this.name = name;
    this.age = age;
    if(this.constructor.instance)
      return this.constructor.instance;
    this.constructor.instance = this;
  }
}
let x = new Singleton('s', 1);
let y = new Singleton('k', 2);

以上的输出将是:

console.log(x.name, x.age, y.name, y.age) // s 1 s 1

另一种使用函数编写Singleton的方法

function AnotherSingleton (name,age) {
  this.name = name;
  this.age = age;
  if(this.constructor.instance)
    return this.constructor.instance;
  this.constructor.instance = this;
}

let a = new AnotherSingleton('s', 1);
let b = new AnotherSingleton('k', 2);

以上的输出将是:

console.log(a.name, a.age, b.name, b.age) // s 1 s 1

简单地使用类表达式:

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

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

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。

下面是我实现单例模式的演练片段。这是我在面试过程中想到的,我觉得我应该在某个地方捕捉到这一点。

/*************************************************
 *     SINGLETON PATTERN IMPLEMENTATION          *
 *************************************************/

// Since there aren't any classes in JavaScript, every object
// is technically a singleton if you don't inherit from it
// or copy from it.
var single = {};


// Singleton Implementations
//
// Declaring as a global object...you are being judged!

var Logger = function() {
  // global_log is/will be defined in the GLOBAL scope here
  if(typeof global_log === 'undefined'){
    global_log = this;
  }
  return global_log;
};


// The below 'fix' solves the GLOABL variable problem, but
// the log_instance is publicly available and thus can be
// tampered with.
function Logger() {
  if(typeof Logger.log_instance === 'undefined') {
    Logger.log_instance = this;
  }

  return Logger.log_instance;
};


// The correct way to do it to give it a closure!

function logFactory() {
  var log_instance; // Private instance
  var _initLog = function() { // Private init method
    log_instance = 'initialized';
    console.log("logger initialized!")
  }
  return {
    getLog : function(){ // The 'privileged' method
      if(typeof log_instance === 'undefined') {
        _initLog();
      }
      return log_instance;
    }
  };
}


/***** TEST CODE ************************************************

// Using the Logger singleton
var logger = logFactory(); // Did I just give LogFactory a closure?

// Create an instance of the logger
var a = logger.getLog();

// Do some work

// Check if the two logger instances are same
console.log(a === b); // true
