我正在尽最大努力理解JavaScript闭包。

通过返回一个内部函数,它可以访问直接父函数中定义的任何变量。

这对我有什么用?也许我还没完全搞清楚。我在网上看到的大多数示例都没有提供任何真实的代码,只是一些模糊的示例。

有人能告诉我一个闭包的真实用法吗?

比如这个吗?

var warnUser = function (msg) {
    var calledCount = 0;
    return function() {
       calledCount++;
       alert(msg + '\nYou have been warned ' + calledCount + ' times.');
    };
};

var warnForTamper = warnUser('You can not tamper with our HTML.');
warnForTamper();
warnForTamper();

在Mozilla开发者网络上有一个关于实用闭包的章节。

你举的例子很好。闭包是一种抽象机制,允许您非常清晰地分离关注点。您的示例是将插装(计数调用)与语义(错误报告API)分离的例子。其他用途包括:

Passing parameterised behaviour into an algorithm (classic higher-order programming): function proximity_sort(arr, midpoint) { arr.sort(function(a, b) { a -= midpoint; b -= midpoint; return a*a - b*b; }); } Simulating object oriented programming: function counter() { var a = 0; return { inc: function() { ++a; }, dec: function() { --a; }, get: function() { return a; }, reset: function() { a = 0; } } } Implementing exotic flow control, such as jQuery's Event handling and AJAX APIs.

在这里,我有一句想说好几遍的问候语。如果我创建一个闭包,我可以简单地调用该函数来记录问候语。如果我不创建闭包,我必须每次都传递我的名字。

没有闭包(https://jsfiddle.net/lukeschlangen/pw61qrow/3/):

function greeting(firstName, lastName) {
  var message = "Hello " + firstName + " " + lastName + "!";
  console.log(message);
}

greeting("Billy", "Bob");
greeting("Billy", "Bob");
greeting("Billy", "Bob");
greeting("Luke", "Schlangen");
greeting("Luke", "Schlangen");
greeting("Luke", "Schlangen");

使用闭包(https://jsfiddle.net/lukeschlangen/Lb5cfve9/3/):

function greeting(firstName, lastName) {
  var message = "Hello " + firstName + " " + lastName + "!";

  return function() {
    console.log(message);
  }
}

var greetingBilly = greeting("Billy", "Bob");
var greetingLuke = greeting("Luke", "Schlangen");

greetingBilly();
greetingBilly();
greetingBilly();
greetingLuke();
greetingLuke();
greetingLuke();

JavaScript模块模式使用闭包。它的良好模式允许你拥有类似“公共”和“私有”变量的东西。

var myNamespace = (function () {

  var myPrivateVar, myPrivateMethod;

  // A private counter variable
  myPrivateVar = 0;

  // A private function which logs any arguments
  myPrivateMethod = function(foo) {
      console.log(foo);
  };

  return {

    // A public variable
    myPublicVar: "foo",

    // A public function utilizing privates
    myPublicFunction: function(bar) {

      // Increment our private counter
      myPrivateVar++;

      // Call our private method using bar
      myPrivateMethod(bar);
    }
  };

})();

这个帖子极大地帮助我更好地理解闭包是如何工作的。

从那以后,我自己做了一些实验,并提出了这个相当简单的代码,它可能会帮助其他人了解如何以实际的方式使用闭包,以及如何在不同的级别上使用闭包来维护类似于静态和/或全局变量的变量,而不会有它们被覆盖或与全局变量混淆的风险。

这将跟踪按钮点击,无论是在本地级别上的每个按钮,还是在全局级别上的每个按钮,计算每个按钮的点击,为单个数字做出贡献。请注意,我没有使用任何全局变量来完成此操作,这是练习的要点—拥有一个可以应用于任何按钮的处理程序,该按钮也对全局具有贡献。

专家们,如果我在这里犯了什么错误,请告诉我!我自己也在学习这些东西。

我已经使用闭包做了如下的事情:

a = (function () {
    var privatefunction = function () {
        alert('hello');
    }

    return {
        publicfunction : function () {
            privatefunction();
        }
    }
})();

正如你在那里看到的,a现在是一个对象,它有一个方法publicfunction(a.publicfunction()),它调用privatefunction,它只存在于闭包中。你不能直接调用privatefunction(即a.b ratefunction()),只能调用publicfunction()。

这是一个最小的例子,但也许你可以看到它的用途?我们使用它来强制公共/私有方法。
