我认为最干净的方法是:

var SingletonFactory = (function(){
    function SingletonClass() {
        //do stuff
    }
    var instance;
    return {
        getInstance: function(){
            if (instance == null) {
                instance = new SingletonClass();
                // Hide the constructor so the returned object can't be new'd...
                instance.constructor = null;
            }
            return instance;
        }
   };
})();

之后，可以调用函数as

var test = SingletonFactory.getInstance();

您可以在每次新的执行中返回相同的实例-

function Singleton() {
    // lazy 
    if (Singleton.prototype.myInstance == undefined) {
        Singleton.prototype.myInstance = { description: "I am the instance"};
    }
    return Singleton.prototype.myInstance;
}

a = new Singleton();
b = new Singleton();
console.log(a); // { description: "I am the instance"};
console.log(b); // { description: "I am the instance"};
console.log(a==b); // true

JavaScript中的单例是使用模块模式和闭包实现的。

下面的代码是不言自明的

// Singleton example.
var singleton = (function() {
  var instance;

  function init() {
    var privateVar1 = "this is a private variable";
    var privateVar2 = "another var";

    function pubMethod() {
      // Accessing private variables from inside.
      console.log(this.privateVar1);
      console.log(this.privateVar2);
      console.log("inside of a public method");
    };
  }

  function getInstance() {
    if (!instance) {
      instance = init();
    }
    return instance;
  };

  return {
    getInstance: getInstance
  }
})();

var obj1 = singleton.getInstance();
var obj2 = singleton.getInstance();

console.log(obj1 === obj2); // Check for type and value.

我从JavaScript模式中得到了这个例子 用编码和设计模式构建更好的应用程序一书(Stoyan Stefanov著)。如果你需要一些简单的实现类，比如单例对象，你可以使用一个直接函数，如下所示:

var ClassName;

(function() {
    var instance;
    ClassName = function ClassName() {
        // If the private instance variable is already initialized, return a reference
        if(instance) {
            return instance;
        }
        // If the instance is not created, save a pointer of the original reference
        // to the private instance variable.
        instance = this;

        // All constructor initialization will be here
        // i.e.:
        this.someProperty = 0;
        this.someMethod = function() {
            // Some action here
        };
    };
}());

你可以通过下面的测试用例来检查这个例子:

// Extending defined class like singleton object using the new prototype property
ClassName.prototype.nothing = true;
var obj_1 = new ClassName();

// Extending the defined class like a singleton object using the new prototype property
ClassName.prototype.everything = true;
var obj_2 = new ClassName();

// Testing makes these two objects point to the same instance
console.log(obj_1 === obj_2); // Result is true, and it points to the same instance object

// All prototype properties work
// no matter when they were defined
console.log(obj_1.nothing && obj_1.everything
            && obj_2.nothing && obj_2.everything); // Result true

// Values of properties which are defined inside of the constructor
console.log(obj_1.someProperty); // Outputs 0
console.log(obj_2.someProperty); // Outputs 0

// Changing property value
obj_1.someProperty = 1;

console.log(obj_1.someProperty); // Output 1
console.log(obj_2.someProperty); // Output 1

console.log(obj_1.constructor === ClassName); // Output true

这种方法通过了所有测试用例，而当使用原型扩展时，私有静态实现将失败(它可以被修复，但并不简单)，而公共静态实现则不太可取，因为实例是公开给公众的。

使用ES6类和私有静态字段。调用Singleton类的新实例将返回相同的实例。实例变量也是私有的，不能在类外部访问。

class Singleton {
  // # is a new Javascript feature that denotes private
  static #instance;

  constructor() {
    if (!Singleton.#instance) {
      Singleton.#instance = this
    } 
    return Singleton.#instance
  }

  get() {
    return Singleton.#instance;
  }
}

const a = new Singleton();
const b = new Singleton();
console.log(a.get() === b.get()) // true
console.log(Singleton.instance === undefined) // true

你可以这样做:

var singleton = new (function() {
  var bar = 123

  this.foo = function() {
    // Whatever
  }
})()
