这篇文章涵盖了相当广泛的主题: http://www.phptherightway.com/pages/Design-Patterns.html#singleton

Note the following: The constructor __construct() is declared as protected to prevent creating a new instance outside of the class via the new operator. The magic method __clone() is declared as private to prevent cloning of an instance of the class via the clone operator. The magic method __wakeup() is declared as private to prevent unserializing of an instance of the class via the global function unserialize(). A new instance is created via late static binding in the static creation method getInstance() with the keyword static. This allows the subclassing of the class Singleton in the example.

我同意第一个答案，但我也会将类声明为final，这样它就不能被扩展，因为扩展单例违背了单例模式。此外，实例变量应该是私有的，这样就不能直接访问它。还要将__clone方法设为私有，这样就不能克隆单例对象。

下面是一些示例代码。

/**
 * Singleton class
 *
 */
final class UserFactory
{
    private static $_instance = null;

    /**
     * Private constructor
     *
     */
    private function __construct() {}

    /**
     * Private clone method
     *
     */
     private function __clone() {}

    /**
     * Call this method to get singleton
     *
     * @return UserFactory
     */
    public static function getInstance()
    {
        if (self::$_instance === null) {
            self::$_instance = new UserFactory();
        }
        return self::$_instance;
    }
}

示例使用

$user_factory = UserFactory::getInstance();

这阻止你做什么(这将违反单例模式..

你不能这么做!

$user_factory = UserFactory::$_instance;

class SecondUserFactory extends UserFactory { }

<?php
/**
 * Singleton patter in php
 **/
trait SingletonTrait {
   protected static $inst = null;

  /**
   * call this method to get instance
   **/
   public static function getInstance(){
      if (static::$inst === null){
         static::$inst = new static();
      }
      return static::$inst;
  }

  /**
   * protected to prevent clonning 
   **/
  protected function __clone(){
  }

  /**
   * protected so no one else can instance it 
   **/
  protected function __construct(){
  }
}

使用方法:

/**
 *  example of class definitions using SingletonTrait
 */
class DBFactory {
  /**
   * we are adding the trait here 
   **/
   use SingletonTrait;

  /**
   * This class will have a single db connection as an example
   **/
  protected $db;


 /**
  * as an example we will create a PDO connection
  **/
  protected function __construct(){
    $this->db = 
        new PDO('mysql:dbname=foodb;port=3305;host=127.0.0.1','foouser','foopass');
  }
}
class DBFactoryChild extends DBFactory {
  /**
   * we repeating the inst so that it will differentiate it
   * from UserFactory singleton
   **/
   protected static $inst = null;
}


/**
 * example of instanciating the classes
 */
$uf0 = DBFactoryChild::getInstance();
var_dump($uf0);
$uf1 = DBFactory::getInstance();
var_dump($uf1);
echo $uf0 === $uf1;

respose:

object(DBFactoryChild)#1 (0) {
}
object(DBFactory)#2 (0) {
}

如果你使用的是PHP 5.4: trait，它是一个选项，所以你不必为了拥有单例模式而浪费继承层次结构

还要注意你是使用trait还是扩展Singleton类 如果你不添加以下代码行，就会创建子类的单例:

   protected static $inst = null;

在儿童班

意想不到的结果将是:

object(DBFactoryChild)#1 (0) {
}
object(DBFactoryChild)#1 (0) {
}

我很久以前就写过，想在这里分享

class SingletonDesignPattern {

    //just for demo there will be only one instance
    private static $instanceCount =0;

    //create the private instance variable
    private static $myInstance=null;

    //make constructor private so no one create object using new Keyword
    private function  __construct(){}

    //no one clone the object
    private function  __clone(){}

    //avoid serialazation
    public function __wakeup(){}

    //ony one way to create  object
    public static  function  getInstance(){

        if(self::$myInstance==null){
            self::$myInstance=new SingletonDesignPattern();
            self::$instanceCount++;
        }
        return self::$myInstance;
    }

    public static function getInstanceCount(){
        return self::$instanceCount;
    }

}

//now lets play with singleton design pattern

$instance = SingletonDesignPattern::getInstance();
$instance = SingletonDesignPattern::getInstance();
$instance = SingletonDesignPattern::getInstance();
$instance = SingletonDesignPattern::getInstance();

echo "number of instances: ".SingletonDesignPattern::getInstanceCount();

/**
 * Singleton class
 *
 */
final class UserFactory
{
    private static $inst = null;

    // Prevent cloning and de-serializing
    private function __clone(){}
    private function __wakeup(){}


    /**
     * Call this method to get singleton
     *
     * @return UserFactory
     */
    public static function Instance()
    {
        if ($inst === null) {
            $inst = new UserFactory();
        }
        return $inst;
    }
    
    /**
     * Private ctor so nobody else can instantiate it
     *
     */
    private function __construct()
    {
        
    }
}

使用方法:

$fact = UserFactory::Instance();
$fact2 = UserFactory::Instance();

$fact == $fact2;

But:

$fact = new UserFactory()

抛出错误。

参见http://php.net/manual/en/language.variables.scope.php#language.variables.scope.static了解静态变量的作用域以及为什么设置static $inst = null;的工作原理。

所有这些复杂性(“后期静态绑定”……对我来说，harumph)只是PHP对象/类模型破碎的标志。如果类对象是一级对象(参见Python)，那么"$_instance"将是一个类实例变量——类对象的成员，而不是其实例的成员/属性，也与它的后代共享相反。在Smalltalk世界中，这就是“类变量”和“类实例变量”之间的区别。

在PHP中，在我看来，我们似乎需要牢记模式是编写代码的指南——我们可能会考虑Singleton模板，但试图编写从实际的“Singleton”类继承的代码对PHP来说是错误的(尽管我认为一些有进取心的人可以创建一个合适的SVN关键字)。

我将继续使用共享模板分别编写每个单例。

请注意，我绝对不会参与单身是邪恶的讨论，生命太短暂了。
