如果您对具有行为的对象感兴趣，那么namedtuple几乎是您的解决方案。

正如namedtuple文档底部所描述的，您可以从namedtuple派生自己的类;然后，你可以添加你想要的行为。

例如(代码直接取自文档):

class Point(namedtuple('Point', 'x y')):
    __slots__ = ()
    @property
    def hypot(self):
        return (self.x ** 2 + self.y ** 2) ** 0.5
    def __str__(self):
        return 'Point: x=%6.3f  y=%6.3f  hypot=%6.3f' % (self.x, self.y, self.hypot)

for p in Point(3, 4), Point(14, 5/7):
    print(p)

这将导致:

Point: x= 3.000  y= 4.000  hypot= 5.000
Point: x=14.000  y= 0.714  hypot=14.018

这种方法适用于Python 3和Python 2.7(在IronPython上也进行了测试)。 唯一的缺点是继承树有点奇怪;但这不是你经常玩的东西。

从Python 3.7开始，你可以在你的类中使用@dataclass装饰器，它将像结构体一样是不可变的!不过，它可能会也可能不会将__hash__()方法添加到类中。引用:

hash() is used by built-in hash(), and when objects are added to hashed collections such as dictionaries and sets. Having a hash() implies that instances of the class are immutable. Mutability is a complicated property that depends on the programmer’s intent, the existence and behavior of eq(), and the values of the eq and frozen flags in the dataclass() decorator. By default, dataclass() will not implicitly add a hash() method unless it is safe to do so. Neither will it add or change an existing explicitly defined hash() method. Setting the class attribute hash = None has a specific meaning to Python, as described in the hash() documentation. If hash() is not explicit defined, or if it is set to None, then dataclass() may add an implicit hash() method. Although not recommended, you can force dataclass() to create a hash() method with unsafe_hash=True. This might be the case if your class is logically immutable but can nonetheless be mutated. This is a specialized use case and should be considered carefully.

下面是上面链接的文档中的例子:

@dataclass
class InventoryItem:
    '''Class for keeping track of an item in inventory.'''
    name: str
    unit_price: float
    quantity_on_hand: int = 0

    def total_cost(self) -> float:
        return self.unit_price * self.quantity_on_hand

另一种方法是创建一个使实例不可变的包装器。

class Immutable(object):

    def __init__(self, wrapped):
        super(Immutable, self).__init__()
        object.__setattr__(self, '_wrapped', wrapped)

    def __getattribute__(self, item):
        return object.__getattribute__(self, '_wrapped').__getattribute__(item)

    def __setattr__(self, key, value):
        raise ImmutableError('Object {0} is immutable.'.format(self._wrapped))

    __delattr__ = __setattr__

    def __iter__(self):
        return object.__getattribute__(self, '_wrapped').__iter__()

    def next(self):
        return object.__getattribute__(self, '_wrapped').next()

    def __getitem__(self, item):
        return object.__getattribute__(self, '_wrapped').__getitem__(item)

immutable_instance = Immutable(my_instance)

这在只有一些实例必须是不可变的情况下很有用(比如函数调用的默认参数)。

也可以用于不可变工厂，如:

@classmethod
def immutable_factory(cls, *args, **kwargs):
    return Immutable(cls.__init__(*args, **kwargs))

也保护对象。__setattr__，但由于Python的动态特性，可能会被其他技巧所绊倒。

第三方attr模块提供了此功能。

编辑:python 3.7已经通过@dataclass在stdlib中采用了这个想法。

$ pip install attrs
$ python
>>> @attr.s(frozen=True)
... class C(object):
...     x = attr.ib()
>>> i = C(1)
>>> i.x = 2
Traceback (most recent call last):
   ...
attr.exceptions.FrozenInstanceError: can't set attribute

Attr通过覆盖__setattr__来实现冻结类，根据文档，Attr在每次实例化时都有轻微的性能影响。

如果您习惯使用类作为数据类型，attr可能特别有用，因为它为您处理样板文件(但没有任何魔力)。特别地，它为你编写了9个dunder (__X__)方法(除非你关闭其中任何一个)，包括repr, init, hash和所有比较函数。

Attr还为__slots__提供了一个帮助器。

我找到了一种方法，不用子类化tuple, namedtuple等。你所需要做的就是在初始化后禁用setattr和delattr(如果你想让一个集合成为不可变的，也要禁用setitem和delitem):

def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
    # something here

    self.lock()

其中lock可以是这样的:

@classmethod
def lock(cls):
    def raiser(*a):
        raise TypeError('this instance is immutable')

    cls.__setattr__ = raiser
    cls.__delattr__ = raiser
    if hasattr(cls, '__setitem__'):
        cls.__setitem__ = raiser
        cls.__delitem__ = raiser

你可以用这个方法创建类Immutable，并像我展示的那样使用它。

如果你不想在每个init中都写self.lock()，你可以用元类自动实现:

class ImmutableType(type):
    @classmethod
    def change_init(mcs, original_init_method):
        def __new_init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
            if callable(original_init_method):
                original_init_method(self, *args, **kwargs)

            cls = self.__class__

            def raiser(*a):
                raise TypeError('this instance is immutable')

            cls.__setattr__ = raiser
            cls.__delattr__ = raiser
            if hasattr(cls, '__setitem__'):
                cls.__setitem__ = raiser
                cls.__delitem__ = raiser

        return __new_init__

    def __new__(mcs, name, parents, kwargs):
        kwargs['__init__'] = mcs.change_init(kwargs.get('__init__'))
        return type.__new__(mcs, name, parents, kwargs)


class Immutable(metaclass=ImmutableType):
    pass

Test

class SomeImmutableClass(Immutable):
    def __init__(self, some_value: int):
        self.important_attr = some_value

    def some_method(self):
        return 2 * self.important_attr


ins = SomeImmutableClass(3)
print(ins.some_method())  # 6
ins.important_attr += 1  # TypeError
ins.another_attr = 2  # TypeError

这种方式不停止对象。__setattr__从工作，但我仍然发现它有用:

class A(object):

    def __new__(cls, children, *args, **kwargs):
        self = super(A, cls).__new__(cls)
        self._frozen = False  # allow mutation from here to end of  __init__
        # other stuff you need to do in __new__ goes here
        return self

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(A, self).__init__()
        self._frozen = True  # prevent future mutation

    def __setattr__(self, name, value):
        # need to special case setting _frozen.
        if name != '_frozen' and self._frozen:
            raise TypeError('Instances are immutable.')
        else:
            super(A, self).__setattr__(name, value)

    def __delattr__(self, name):
        if self._frozen:
            raise TypeError('Instances are immutable.')
        else:
            super(A, self).__delattr__(name)

你可能需要根据用例重写更多的东西(比如__setitem__)。
