我主要是c#开发人员,但我目前正在用Python开发一个项目。

我如何在Python中表示等价的Enum ?


当前回答

为什么枚举必须是整数?不幸的是,在不改变Python语言的情况下,我想不出任何好看的构造来生成它,所以我将使用字符串:

class Enumerator(object):
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name

    def __eq__(self, other):
        if self.name == other:
            return True
        return self is other

    def __ne__(self, other):
        if self.name != other:
            return False
        return self is other

    def __repr__(self):
        return 'Enumerator({0})'.format(self.name)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.name

class Enum(object):
    def __init__(self, *enumerators):
        for e in enumerators:
            setattr(self, e, Enumerator(e))
    def __getitem__(self, key):
        return getattr(self, key)

也许现在更好的是,为了配置文件或其他远程输入,我们可以自然地对字符串进行测试。

例子:

class Cow(object):
    State = Enum(
        'standing',
        'walking',
        'eating',
        'mooing',
        'sleeping',
        'dead',
        'dying'
    )
    state = State.standing

In [1]: from enum import Enum

In [2]: c = Cow()

In [3]: c2 = Cow()

In [4]: c.state, c2.state
Out[4]: (Enumerator(standing), Enumerator(standing))

In [5]: c.state == c2.state
Out[5]: True

In [6]: c.State.mooing
Out[6]: Enumerator(mooing)

In [7]: c.State['mooing']
Out[7]: Enumerator(mooing)

In [8]: c.state = Cow.State.dead

In [9]: c.state == c2.state
Out[9]: False

In [10]: c.state == Cow.State.dead
Out[10]: True

In [11]: c.state == 'dead'
Out[11]: True

In [12]: c.state == Cow.State['dead']
Out[11]: True

另一个非常简单的Python枚举实现,使用namedtuple:

from collections import namedtuple

def enum(*keys):
    return namedtuple('Enum', keys)(*keys)

MyEnum = enum('FOO', 'BAR', 'BAZ')

,或者

# With sequential number values
def enum(*keys):
    return namedtuple('Enum', keys)(*range(len(keys)))

# From a dict / keyword args
def enum(**kwargs):
    return namedtuple('Enum', kwargs.keys())(*kwargs.values())




# Example for dictionary param:
values = {"Salad": 20, "Carrot": 99, "Tomato": "No i'm not"} 
Vegetables= enum(**values)

# >>> print(Vegetables.Tomato)        'No i'm not'


# Example for keyworded params: 
Fruits = enum(Apple="Steve Jobs", Peach=1, Banana=2)

# >>> print(Fruits.Apple)             'Steve Jobs'

就像上面子类设置的方法一样,这允许:

'FOO' in MyEnum
other = MyEnum.FOO
assert other == MyEnum.FOO

但是具有更大的灵活性,因为它可以有不同的键和值。这允许

MyEnum.FOO < MyEnum.BAR

如果使用填充连续数字值的版本,则按预期操作。

Python的标准是PEP 435,所以在Python 3.4+中可以使用Enum类:

>>> from enum import Enum
>>> class Colors(Enum):
...     red = 1
...     green = 2
...     blue = 3
>>> for color in Colors: print color
Colors.red
Colors.green
Colors.blue

最好的解决方案取决于你需要从你的假枚举中得到什么。

简单的枚举:

如果你只需要枚举作为标识不同项目的名称列表,Mark Harrison(上图)的解决方案是很棒的:

Pen, Pencil, Eraser = range(0, 3)

使用范围还允许你设置任何起始值:

Pen, Pencil, Eraser = range(9, 12)

除此之外,如果你还要求项属于某种类型的容器,那么将它们嵌入到一个类中:

class Stationery:
    Pen, Pencil, Eraser = range(0, 3)

要使用枚举项,你现在需要使用容器名和项名:

stype = Stationery.Pen

复杂的枚举:

对于枚举的长列表或更复杂的enum使用,这些解决方案是不够的。你可以参考Will Ware在Python Cookbook中发布的关于在Python中模拟枚举的食谱。这里有一个在线版本。

更多信息:

PEP 354: Python中的枚举有关于Python中的枚举建议的有趣细节,以及为什么它被拒绝。

以下是我认为有价值的方法:

允许>和<基于枚举中的顺序进行比较,而不是词法顺序 可以地址项目的名称,属性或索引:x.a, x['a']或x[0] 支持[:]或[-1]等切片操作

最重要的是防止不同类型的枚举之间的比较!

基于http://code.activestate.com/recipes/413486-first-class-enums-in-python。

这里包含了许多文档测试,以说明这种方法的不同之处。

def enum(*names):
    """
SYNOPSIS
    Well-behaved enumerated type, easier than creating custom classes

DESCRIPTION
    Create a custom type that implements an enumeration.  Similar in concept
    to a C enum but with some additional capabilities and protections.  See
    http://code.activestate.com/recipes/413486-first-class-enums-in-python/.

PARAMETERS
    names       Ordered list of names.  The order in which names are given
                will be the sort order in the enum type.  Duplicate names
                are not allowed.  Unicode names are mapped to ASCII.

RETURNS
    Object of type enum, with the input names and the enumerated values.

EXAMPLES
    >>> letters = enum('a','e','i','o','u','b','c','y','z')
    >>> letters.a < letters.e
    True

    ## index by property
    >>> letters.a
    a

    ## index by position
    >>> letters[0]
    a

    ## index by name, helpful for bridging string inputs to enum
    >>> letters['a']
    a

    ## sorting by order in the enum() create, not character value
    >>> letters.u < letters.b
    True

    ## normal slicing operations available
    >>> letters[-1]
    z

    ## error since there are not 100 items in enum
    >>> letters[99]
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    IndexError: tuple index out of range

    ## error since name does not exist in enum
    >>> letters['ggg']
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    ValueError: tuple.index(x): x not in tuple

    ## enums must be named using valid Python identifiers
    >>> numbers = enum(1,2,3,4)
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    AssertionError: Enum values must be string or unicode

    >>> a = enum('-a','-b')
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    TypeError: Error when calling the metaclass bases
        __slots__ must be identifiers

    ## create another enum
    >>> tags = enum('a','b','c')
    >>> tags.a
    a
    >>> letters.a
    a

    ## can't compare values from different enums
    >>> letters.a == tags.a
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    AssertionError: Only values from the same enum are comparable

    >>> letters.a < tags.a
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    AssertionError: Only values from the same enum are comparable

    ## can't update enum after create
    >>> letters.a = 'x'
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    AttributeError: 'EnumClass' object attribute 'a' is read-only

    ## can't update enum after create
    >>> del letters.u
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    AttributeError: 'EnumClass' object attribute 'u' is read-only

    ## can't have non-unique enum values
    >>> x = enum('a','b','c','a')
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    AssertionError: Enums must not repeat values

    ## can't have zero enum values
    >>> x = enum()
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    AssertionError: Empty enums are not supported

    ## can't have enum values that look like special function names
    ## since these could collide and lead to non-obvious errors
    >>> x = enum('a','b','c','__cmp__')
    Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
    AssertionError: Enum values beginning with __ are not supported

LIMITATIONS
    Enum values of unicode type are not preserved, mapped to ASCII instead.

    """

        setattr(EnumClass, each, val)
        constants[i] = val

    return enumtype

我喜欢在Python中这样定义枚举:

class Animal:
  class Dog: pass
  class Cat: pass

x = Animal.Dog

这比使用整数更有漏洞,因为你不必担心确保整数是唯一的(例如,如果你说Dog = 1和Cat = 1,你就完蛋了)。

它比使用字符串更防bug,因为你不必担心拼写错误(例如。 x == "猫"无声失败,但x ==动物。Catt是一个运行时异常)。


附录: 你甚至可以通过让Dog和Cat继承一个具有正确元类的符号类来增强这个解决方案:

class SymbolClass(type):
    def __repr__(self): return self.__qualname__
    def __str__(self): return self.__name__

class Symbol(metaclass=SymbolClass): pass


class Animal:
    class Dog(Symbol): pass
    class Cat(Symbol): pass

然后,如果你使用这些值来索引一个字典,请求它的表示将使它们看起来很漂亮:

>>> mydict = {Animal.Dog: 'Wan Wan', Animal.Cat: 'Nyaa'}
>>> mydict
{Animal.Dog: 'Wan Wan', Animal.Cat: 'Nyaa'}
