我已经实现了一个JavaScript HashMap，其代码可以从http://github.com/lambder/HashMapJS/tree/master获得

代码如下:

 */
var HashMap = function() {
  this.initialize();
}

HashMap.prototype = {
  hashkey_prefix: "<#HashMapHashkeyPerfix>",
  hashcode_field: "<#HashMapHashkeyPerfix>",

  initialize: function() {
    this.backing_hash = {};
    this.code = 0;
  },
  /*
   Maps value to key returning previous association
   */
  put: function(key, value) {
    var prev;
    if (key && value) {
      var hashCode = key[this.hashcode_field];
      if (hashCode) {
        prev = this.backing_hash[hashCode];
      } else {
        this.code += 1;
        hashCode = this.hashkey_prefix + this.code;
        key[this.hashcode_field] = hashCode;
      }
      this.backing_hash[hashCode] = value;
    }
    return prev;
  },
  /*
   Returns value associated with given key
   */
  get: function(key) {
    var value;
    if (key) {
      var hashCode = key[this.hashcode_field];
      if (hashCode) {
        value = this.backing_hash[hashCode];
      }
    }
    return value;
  },
  /*
   Deletes association by given key.
   Returns true if the association existed, false otherwise
   */
  del: function(key) {
    var success = false;
    if (key) {
      var hashCode = key[this.hashcode_field];
      if (hashCode) {
        var prev = this.backing_hash[hashCode];
        this.backing_hash[hashCode] = undefined;
        if(prev !== undefined)
          success = true;
      }
    }
    return success;
  }
}

//// Usage

// Creation

var my_map = new HashMap();

// Insertion

var a_key = {};
var a_value = {struct: "structA"};
var b_key = {};
var b_value = {struct: "structB"};
var c_key = {};
var c_value = {struct: "structC"};

my_map.put(a_key, a_value);
my_map.put(b_key, b_value);
var prev_b = my_map.put(b_key, c_value);

// Retrieval

if(my_map.get(a_key) !== a_value){
  throw("fail1")
}
if(my_map.get(b_key) !== c_value){
  throw("fail2")
}
if(prev_b !== b_value){
  throw("fail3")
}

// Deletion

var a_existed = my_map.del(a_key);
var c_existed = my_map.del(c_key);
var a2_existed = my_map.del(a_key);

if(a_existed !== true){
  throw("fail4")
}
if(c_existed !== false){
  throw("fail5")
}
if(a2_existed !== false){
  throw("fail6")
}

试试我的JavaScript哈希表实现:http://www.timdown.co.uk/jshashtable

它查找关键对象的hashCode()方法，或者您可以在创建Hashtable对象时提供哈希函数。

JavaScript没有内置的map/hashmap。它应该被称为关联数组。

hash["X"]等于hash。X，但它允许“X”作为字符串变量。 换句话说，hash[x]在函数上等于eval("hash."+x. tostring())。

它更类似于object。属性而不是键值映射。 如果你在JavaScript中寻找一个更好的键/值映射，请使用Map对象。

在ECMAScript 6中，你可以使用WeakMap。

例子:

var wm1 = new WeakMap(),
    wm2 = new WeakMap(),
    wm3 = new WeakMap();
var o1 = {},
    o2 = function(){},
    o3 = window;

wm1.set(o1, 37);
wm1.set(o2, "azerty");
wm2.set(o1, o2); // A value can be anything, including an object or a function
wm2.set(o3, undefined);
wm2.set(wm1, wm2); // Keys and values can be any objects. Even WeakMaps!

wm1.get(o2); // "azerty"
wm2.get(o2); // Undefined, because there is no value for o2 on wm2
wm2.get(o3); // Undefined, because that is the set value

wm1.has(o2); // True
wm2.has(o2); // False
wm2.has(o3); // True (even if the value itself is 'undefined')

wm3.set(o1, 37);
wm3.get(o1); // 37
wm3.clear();
wm3.get(o1); // Undefined, because wm3 was cleared and there is no value for o1 anymore

wm1.has(o1);   // True
wm1.delete(o1);
wm1.has(o1);   // False

But:

因为引用是弱的，WeakMap键是不可枚举的(也就是说，没有方法给你一个键的列表)。

我的“地图”实现，源自Christoph的例子:

使用示例:

var map = new Map();  // Creates an "in-memory" map
var map = new Map("storageId");  // Creates a map that is loaded/persisted using html5 storage

function Map(storageId) {
    this.current = undefined;
    this.size = 0;
    this.storageId = storageId;
    if (this.storageId) {
        this.keys = new Array();
        this.disableLinking();
    }
}

Map.noop = function() {
    return this;
};

Map.illegal = function() {
    throw new Error("illegal operation for maps without linking");
};

// Map initialisation from an existing object
// doesn't add inherited properties if not explicitly instructed to:
// omitting foreignKeys means foreignKeys === undefined, i.e. == false
// --> inherited properties won't be added
Map.from = function(obj, foreignKeys) {
    var map = new Map;
    for(var prop in obj) {
        if(foreignKeys || obj.hasOwnProperty(prop))
            map.put(prop, obj[prop]);
    }
    return map;
};

Map.prototype.disableLinking = function() {
    this.link = Map.noop;
    this.unlink = Map.noop;
    this.disableLinking = Map.noop;

    this.next = Map.illegal;
    this.key = Map.illegal;
    this.value = Map.illegal;
//    this.removeAll = Map.illegal;


    return this;
};

// Overwrite in Map instance if necessary
Map.prototype.hash = function(value) {
    return (typeof value) + ' ' + (value instanceof Object ?
        (value.__hash || (value.__hash = ++arguments.callee.current)) :
        value.toString());
};

Map.prototype.hash.current = 0;

// --- Mapping functions

Map.prototype.get = function(key) {
    var item = this[this.hash(key)];
    if (item === undefined) {
        if (this.storageId) {
            try {
                var itemStr = localStorage.getItem(this.storageId + key);
                if (itemStr && itemStr !== 'undefined') {
                    item = JSON.parse(itemStr);
                    this[this.hash(key)] = item;
                    this.keys.push(key);
                    ++this.size;
                }
            } catch (e) {
                console.log(e);
            }
        }
    }
    return item === undefined ? undefined : item.value;
};

Map.prototype.put = function(key, value) {
    var hash = this.hash(key);

    if(this[hash] === undefined) {
        var item = { key : key, value : value };
        this[hash] = item;

        this.link(item);
        ++this.size;
    }
    else this[hash].value = value;
    if (this.storageId) {
        this.keys.push(key);
        try {
            localStorage.setItem(this.storageId + key, JSON.stringify(this[hash]));
        } catch (e) {
            console.log(e);
        }
    }
    return this;
};

Map.prototype.remove = function(key) {
    var hash = this.hash(key);
    var item = this[hash];
    if(item !== undefined) {
        --this.size;
        this.unlink(item);

        delete this[hash];
    }
    if (this.storageId) {
        try {
            localStorage.setItem(this.storageId + key, undefined);
        } catch (e) {
            console.log(e);
        }
    }
    return this;
};

// Only works if linked
Map.prototype.removeAll = function() {
    if (this.storageId) {
        for (var i=0; i<this.keys.length; i++) {
            this.remove(this.keys[i]);
        }
        this.keys.length = 0;
    } else {
        while(this.size)
            this.remove(this.key());
    }
    return this;
};

// --- Linked list helper functions

Map.prototype.link = function(item) {
    if (this.storageId) {
        return;
    }
    if(this.size == 0) {
        item.prev = item;
        item.next = item;
        this.current = item;
    }
    else {
        item.prev = this.current.prev;
        item.prev.next = item;
        item.next = this.current;
        this.current.prev = item;
    }
};

Map.prototype.unlink = function(item) {
    if (this.storageId) {
        return;
    }
    if(this.size == 0)
        this.current = undefined;
    else {
        item.prev.next = item.next;
        item.next.prev = item.prev;
        if(item === this.current)
            this.current = item.next;
    }
};

// --- Iterator functions - only work if map is linked

Map.prototype.next = function() {
    this.current = this.current.next;
};

Map.prototype.key = function() {
    if (this.storageId) {
        return undefined;
    } else {
        return this.current.key;
    }
};

Map.prototype.value = function() {
    if (this.storageId) {
        return undefined;
    }
    return this.current.value;
};

不幸的是，之前的答案都不适合我的情况:不同的键对象可能具有相同的散列代码。因此，我写了一个简单的类似java的HashMap版本:

function HashMap() {
    this.buckets = {};
}

HashMap.prototype.put = function(key, value) {
    var hashCode = key.hashCode();
    var bucket = this.buckets[hashCode];
    if (!bucket) {
        bucket = new Array();
        this.buckets[hashCode] = bucket;
    }
    for (var i = 0; i < bucket.length; ++i) {
        if (bucket[i].key.equals(key)) {
            bucket[i].value = value;
            return;
        }
    }
    bucket.push({ key: key, value: value });
}

HashMap.prototype.get = function(key) {
    var hashCode = key.hashCode();
    var bucket = this.buckets[hashCode];
    if (!bucket) {
        return null;
    }
    for (var i = 0; i < bucket.length; ++i) {
        if (bucket[i].key.equals(key)) {
            return bucket[i].value;
        }
    }
}

HashMap.prototype.keys = function() {
    var keys = new Array();
    for (var hashKey in this.buckets) {
        var bucket = this.buckets[hashKey];
        for (var i = 0; i < bucket.length; ++i) {
            keys.push(bucket[i].key);
        }
    }
    return keys;
}

HashMap.prototype.values = function() {
    var values = new Array();
    for (var hashKey in this.buckets) {
        var bucket = this.buckets[hashKey];
        for (var i = 0; i < bucket.length; ++i) {
            values.push(bucket[i].value);
        }
    }
    return values;
}

注意:键对象必须“实现”hashCode()和equals()方法。
