您可以轻松地为脚本配备一种用于常量的机制，这些常量可以设置但不能更改。试图更改它们将产生错误。

从ES2015开始，JavaScript有了const的概念:

const MY_CONSTANT = "some-value";

这将工作在几乎所有的浏览器除了ie8, 9和10。有些可能还需要启用严格模式。

如果你需要支持旧的浏览器或使用遗留代码，你可以使用var和像ALL_CAPS这样的约定来表明某些值不应该被修改:

var MY_CONSTANT = "some-value";

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

在Javascript中已经存在常量。你可以这样定义一个常数:

const name1 = value;

这不能通过重新分配来改变。

除了上面提到的，Rhino.js还实现了const。
