public static final String CONST_NAME = "Name";

当前回答
Python没有常量。
也许最简单的替代方法是为它定义一个函数:
def MY_CONSTANT():
return 42
MY_CONSTANT()现在拥有常量的所有功能(加上一些讨厌的大括号)。
其他回答
在我的例子中,我需要不可变字节数组来实现包含许多文字数字的加密库,我想确保这些数字是常量。
这个答案是有效的,但是尝试重赋bytearray元素不会引发错误。
def const(func):
'''implement const decorator'''
def fset(self, val):
'''attempting to set a const raises `ConstError`'''
class ConstError(TypeError):
'''special exception for const reassignment'''
pass
raise ConstError
def fget(self):
'''get a const'''
return func()
return property(fget, fset)
class Consts(object):
'''contain all constants'''
@const
def C1():
'''reassignment to C1 fails silently'''
return bytearray.fromhex('deadbeef')
@const
def pi():
'''is immutable'''
return 3.141592653589793
常量是不可变的,但是常量bytearray赋值默默失败:
>>> c = Consts()
>>> c.pi = 6.283185307179586 # (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tau_(2%CF%80))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "consts.py", line 9, in fset
raise ConstError
__main__.ConstError
>>> c.C1[0] = 0
>>> c.C1[0]
222
>>> c.C1
bytearray(b'\xde\xad\xbe\xef')
一种更强大、更简单,甚至可能更“python化”的方法涉及使用memoryview对象(<= python-2.6中的缓冲区对象)。
import sys
PY_VER = sys.version.split()[0].split('.')
if int(PY_VER[0]) == 2:
if int(PY_VER[1]) < 6:
raise NotImplementedError
elif int(PY_VER[1]) == 6:
memoryview = buffer
class ConstArray(object):
'''represent a constant bytearray'''
def __init__(self, init):
'''
create a hidden bytearray and expose a memoryview of that bytearray for
read-only use
'''
if int(PY_VER[1]) == 6:
self.__array = bytearray(init.decode('hex'))
else:
self.__array = bytearray.fromhex(init)
self.array = memoryview(self.__array)
def __str__(self):
return str(self.__array)
def __getitem__(self, *args, **kwargs):
return self.array.__getitem__(*args, **kwargs)
ConstArray项赋值是一个TypeError:
>>> C1 = ConstArray('deadbeef')
>>> C1[0] = 0
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: 'ConstArray' object does not support item assignment
>>> C1[0]
222
(这一段本来是对那些提到namedtuple的答案的注释,但它太长了,不适合注释,所以,就这样吧。)
上面提到的命名元组方法绝对是创新的。不过,为了完整起见,在其官方文档的NamedTuple部分的末尾,它如下所示:
枚举常量可以用命名元组实现,但使用简单的类声明更简单高效: 类的状态: 打开,待处理,关闭= range(3)
换句话说,官方文档更倾向于使用一种实用的方式,而不是实际实现只读行为。我想这是Python的另一个禅宗的例子:
简单比复杂好。 实用胜过纯粹。
也许pconst库会帮助你(github)。
$ PIP安装pconst
from pconst import const
const.APPLE_PRICE = 100
const.APPLE_PRICE = 200
“APPLE_PRICE”的常量值不可编辑。
下面是一个“Constants”类的实现,它创建具有只读(常量)属性的实例。例如,可以使用Nums。PI来获得一个已初始化为3.14159的值,Nums。PI = 22引发异常。
# ---------- Constants.py ----------
class Constants(object):
"""
Create objects with read-only (constant) attributes.
Example:
Nums = Constants(ONE=1, PI=3.14159, DefaultWidth=100.0)
print 10 + Nums.PI
print '----- Following line is deliberate ValueError -----'
Nums.PI = 22
"""
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
self._d = dict(*args, **kwargs)
def __iter__(self):
return iter(self._d)
def __len__(self):
return len(self._d)
# NOTE: This is only called if self lacks the attribute.
# So it does not interfere with get of 'self._d', etc.
def __getattr__(self, name):
return self._d[name]
# ASSUMES '_..' attribute is OK to set. Need this to initialize 'self._d', etc.
#If use as keys, they won't be constant.
def __setattr__(self, name, value):
if (name[0] == '_'):
super(Constants, self).__setattr__(name, value)
else:
raise ValueError("setattr while locked", self)
if (__name__ == "__main__"):
# Usage example.
Nums = Constants(ONE=1, PI=3.14159, DefaultWidth=100.0)
print 10 + Nums.PI
print '----- Following line is deliberate ValueError -----'
Nums.PI = 22
感谢@MikeGraham的FrozenDict,我将其作为一个起点。更改后,使用语法不再是Nums['ONE'],而是Nums.ONE。
感谢@Raufio的回答,对于覆盖__ setattr __的想法。

您可以将一个常量包装在numpy数组中,将其标记为仅写,并始终通过下标0调用它。
import numpy as np
# declare a constant
CONSTANT = 'hello'
# put constant in numpy and make read only
CONSTANT = np.array([CONSTANT])
CONSTANT.flags.writeable = False
# alternatively: CONSTANT.setflags(write=0)
# call our constant using 0 index
print 'CONSTANT %s' % CONSTANT[0]
# attempt to modify our constant with try/except
new_value = 'goodbye'
try:
CONSTANT[0] = new_value
except:
print "cannot change CONSTANT to '%s' it's value '%s' is immutable" % (
new_value, CONSTANT[0])
# attempt to modify our constant producing ValueError
CONSTANT[0] = new_value
>>>
CONSTANT hello
cannot change CONSTANT to 'goodbye' it's value 'hello' is immutable
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "shuffle_test.py", line 15, in <module>
CONSTANT[0] = new_value
ValueError: assignment destination is read-only
当然,这只保护numpy的内容,而不是变量“CONSTANT”本身;你仍然可以:
CONSTANT = 'foo'
和CONSTANT会改变,然而,这将很快抛出TypeError第一次在脚本中调用CONSTANT[0]。
尽管……我想如果你在某个时候把它改成
CONSTANT = [1,2,3]
现在你不会再得到TypeError了。嗯……
