在JavaScript中有使用常量的方法吗?

如果不是,指定用作常量的变量的常见做法是什么?


当前回答

我在这方面也有问题。在花了很长一段时间寻找答案,看了大家的回答之后,我想我已经想出了一个可行的解决方案。

似乎我遇到的大多数答案都是使用函数来保存常量。正如许多论坛的用户所述,客户端用户可以很容易地重写这些函数。我对Keith evets的回答很感兴趣,他说常量对象不能被外部访问,只能从内部的函数访问。

所以我想出了这个解决方案:

把所有东西都放在一个匿名函数中,这样,变量、对象等就不能被客户端更改。也可以通过让其他函数从内部调用“真正的”函数来隐藏“真正的”函数。我还考虑过使用函数来检查客户端用户是否更改了函数。如果函数已经更改,请使用内部“受保护”且不能更改的变量将它们更改回来。

安全性似乎也是一个真正的问题,没有办法从客户端“隐藏”你的编程。对我来说,一个好主意是压缩你的代码,这样任何人,包括你,程序员,都很难阅读和理解它。你可以去一个网站:http://javascriptcompressor.com/。(这不是我的网站,别担心我不是在做广告。)这是一个免费让你压缩和混淆Javascript代码的网站。

复制上面脚本中的所有代码,并将其粘贴到javascriptcompressor.com页面的顶部文本区域。 选中“Base62编码”复选框,选中“收缩变量”复选框。 按下压缩按钮。 粘贴并保存在.js文件中,并将其添加到页面头部。

其他回答

关键字“const”早前就被提出了,现在它已经被正式包含在ES6中。通过使用const关键字,可以传递一个作为不可变字符串的值/字符串。

不,不一般。Firefox实现了const,但我知道IE没有。


@John指出了const的一个常用命名实践,在其他语言中已经使用了很多年,我看不出为什么你不能使用它。当然,这并不意味着有人不会重写变量的值。:)

使用"new"对象api,你可以这样做:

var obj = {};
Object.defineProperty(obj, 'CONSTANT', {
  configurable: false
  enumerable: true,
  writable: false,
  value: "your constant value"
});

请在Mozilla MDN上查看更多细节。它不是第一级变量,因为它是附加到对象上的,但如果你有一个作用域,你可以将它附加到那个对象上。这也可以。 例如,在全局作用域中这样做会在窗口上声明一个伪常量值(这是个坏主意,你不应该粗心地声明全局变量)

Object.defineProperty(this, 'constant', {
  enumerable: true, 
  writable: false, 
  value: 7, 
  configurable: false
});

> constant
=> 7
> constant = 5
=> 7

注意:赋值会在控制台中返回赋值,但变量的值不会改变

除了上面提到的,Rhino.js还实现了const。

在JavaScript中,我的实践是尽可能避免常量,而是使用字符串。当你想要向外界公开你的常量时,常量的问题就出现了:

例如,可以实现以下Date API:

date.add(5, MyModule.Date.DAY).add(12, MyModule.Date.HOUR)

但如果简单地写成:

date.add(5, "days").add(12, "hours")

这样,“天”和“小时”就像常数一样,因为你无法从外部改变“小时”代表的秒数。但是很容易覆盖MyModule.Date.HOUR。

这种方法还有助于调试。如果Firebug告诉你action === 18,你很难理解它的意思,但是当你看到action === "save"时,你马上就明白了。
