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

Alexandru对枚举使用类常量的建议效果很好。

我还喜欢为每组常量添加字典，以查找人类可读的字符串表示。

这有两个目的:a)它提供了一种简单的方法来漂亮地打印你的枚举;b)字典在逻辑上对常量进行分组，以便您可以测试成员关系。

class Animal:    
  TYPE_DOG = 1
  TYPE_CAT = 2

  type2str = {
    TYPE_DOG: "dog",
    TYPE_CAT: "cat"
  }

  def __init__(self, type_):
    assert type_ in self.type2str.keys()
    self._type = type_

  def __repr__(self):
    return "<%s type=%s>" % (
        self.__class__.__name__, self.type2str[self._type].upper())

这里是一个实现:

class Enum(set):
    def __getattr__(self, name):
        if name in self:
            return name
        raise AttributeError

下面是它的用法:

Animals = Enum(["DOG", "CAT", "HORSE"])

print(Animals.DOG)

在答案列表中没有看到这个，这是我想出的一个。它允许使用'in'关键字和len()方法:

class EnumTypeError(TypeError):
    pass

class Enum(object):
    """
    Minics enum type from different languages
    Usage:
    Letters = Enum(list('abc'))
    a = Letters.a
    print(a in Letters) # True
    print(54 in Letters) # False
    """
    def __init__(self, enums):
        if isinstance(enums, dict):
            self.__dict__.update(enums)
        elif isinstance(enums, list) or isinstance(enums, tuple):
            self.__dict__.update(**dict((v,k) for k,v in enumerate(enums)))
        else:
            raise EnumTypeError

    def __contains__(self, key):
        return key in self.__dict__.values()

    def __len__(self):
        return len(self.__dict__.values())


if __name__ == '__main__':
    print('Using a dictionary to create Enum:')
    Letters = Enum(dict((v,k) for k,v in enumerate(list('abcde'))))
    a = Letters.a
    print('\tIs a in e?', a in Letters)
    print('\tIs 54 in e?', 54 in Letters)
    print('\tLength of Letters enum:', len(Letters))

    print('\nUsing a list to create Enum:')
    Letters = Enum(list('abcde'))
    a = Letters.a
    print('\tIs a in e?', a in Letters)
    print('\tIs 54 in e?', 54 in Letters)
    print('\tLength of Letters enum:', len(Letters))

    try:
        # make sure we raise an exception if we pass an invalid arg
        Failure = Enum('This is a Failure')
        print('Failure')
    except EnumTypeError:
        print('Success!')

输出:

Using a dictionary to create Enum:
        Is a in e? True
        Is 54 in e? False
        Length of Letters enum: 5

Using a list to create Enum:
        Is a in e? True
        Is 54 in e? False
        Length of Letters enum: 5
Success!

在2013-05-10,Guido同意将PEP 435纳入Python 3.4标准库。这意味着Python终于内置了对枚举的支持!

Python 3.3、3.2、3.1、2.7、2.6、2.5和2.4有一个可用的后端端口。它在Pypi上枚举34。

声明:

>>> from enum import Enum
>>> class Color(Enum):
...     red = 1
...     green = 2
...     blue = 3

表示:

>>> print(Color.red)
Color.red
>>> print(repr(Color.red))
<Color.red: 1>

迭代:

>>> for color in Color:
...   print(color)
...
Color.red
Color.green
Color.blue

编程访问:

>>> Color(1)
Color.red
>>> Color['blue']
Color.blue
