在Python中似乎有很多方法来定义单例对象。对Stack Overflow是否有一致的意见?

正如公认的答案所说,最常用的方法是只使用一个模块。

考虑到这一点,下面是一个概念的证明:

def singleton(cls):
    obj = cls()
    # Always return the same object
    cls.__new__ = staticmethod(lambda cls: obj)
    # Disable __init__
    try:
        del cls.__init__
    except AttributeError:
        pass
    return cls

有关__new__的更多详细信息,请参阅Python数据模型。

例子:

@singleton
class Duck(object):
    pass

if Duck() is Duck():
    print "It works!"
else:
    print "It doesn't work!"

注:

为此,您必须使用new-style类(派生自object)。 单例在定义时初始化,而不是在第一次使用时初始化。 这只是一个简单的例子。我从未在产品代码中实际使用过它,也不打算这样做。

这是我自己对单例对象的实现。你所要做的就是布置课堂;为了获得单例,你必须使用Instance方法。这里有一个例子:

@Singleton
class Foo:
   def __init__(self):
       print 'Foo created'

f = Foo() # Error, this isn't how you get the instance of a singleton

f = Foo.instance() # Good. Being explicit is in line with the Python Zen
g = Foo.instance() # Returns already created instance

print f is g # True

下面是代码:

class Singleton:
    """
    A non-thread-safe helper class to ease implementing singletons.
    This should be used as a decorator -- not a metaclass -- to the
    class that should be a singleton.

    The decorated class can define one `__init__` function that
    takes only the `self` argument. Also, the decorated class cannot be
    inherited from. Other than that, there are no restrictions that apply
    to the decorated class.

    To get the singleton instance, use the `instance` method. Trying
    to use `__call__` will result in a `TypeError` being raised.

    """

    def __init__(self, decorated):
        self._decorated = decorated

    def instance(self):
        """
        Returns the singleton instance. Upon its first call, it creates a
        new instance of the decorated class and calls its `__init__` method.
        On all subsequent calls, the already created instance is returned.

        """
        try:
            return self._instance
        except AttributeError:
            self._instance = self._decorated()
            return self._instance

    def __call__(self):
        raise TypeError('Singletons must be accessed through `instance()`.')

    def __instancecheck__(self, inst):
        return isinstance(inst, self._decorated)

你可以像这样重写__new__方法:

class Singleton(object):
    _instance = None
    def __new__(cls, *args, **kwargs):
        if not cls._instance:
            cls._instance = super(Singleton, cls).__new__(
                                cls, *args, **kwargs)
        return cls._instance


if __name__ == '__main__':
    s1 = Singleton()
    s2 = Singleton()
    if (id(s1) == id(s2)):
        print "Same"
    else:
        print "Different"

作为Python的新手,我不确定最常见的习语是什么,但我能想到的最简单的事情就是使用模块而不是类。类中的实例方法变成了模块中的函数,任何数据都变成了模块中的变量,而不是类的成员。我怀疑这是解决人们使用单例对象的问题的python方法。

如果你真的想要一个单例类,有一个合理的实现描述在谷歌的第一个点击“Python singleton”,具体地说:

class Singleton:
    __single = None
    def __init__( self ):
        if Singleton.__single:
            raise Singleton.__single
        Singleton.__single = self

这似乎奏效了。

我对此非常不确定,但我的项目使用'惯例单例'(不是强制单例),也就是说,如果我有一个名为DataController的类,我在同一个模块中定义这个:

_data_controller = None
def GetDataController():
    global _data_controller
    if _data_controller is None:
        _data_controller = DataController()
    return _data_controller

它并不优雅,因为它足足有六行。但是我所有的单例都使用这个模式,而且它至少是非常显式的(这是python的)。

如果你想继续装饰(注释)类,创建一个单例装饰器(又名注释)是一种优雅的方式。然后将@singleton放在类定义之前。

def singleton(cls):
    instances = {}
    def getinstance():
        if cls not in instances:
            instances[cls] = cls()
        return instances[cls]
    return getinstance

@singleton
class MyClass:
    ...
