如何在Python中声明常量?

在Java中,我们做:

public static final String CONST_NAME = "Name";

当前回答

在Python中,常量是不存在的,但是你可以通过在变量名的开头添加CONST_并在注释中声明它是一个常量来表明变量是一个常量并且不能被改变:

myVariable = 0
CONST_daysInWeek = 7    # This is a constant - do not change its value.   
CONSTANT_daysInMonth = 30 # This is also a constant - do not change this value.

或者,你可以创建一个像常量一样的函数:

def CONST_daysInWeek():
    return 7;

其他回答

这并不完全是常数,但从python 3.7开始,你可以使用如下所示的数据类模块:

from dataclasses import dataclass
from typing import Final

@dataclass(frozen=True)
class A():
    a1:Final = 3

a = A()

a.a1 = 4

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
FrozenInstanceError                       Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-14-5f7f4efc5bf0> in <module>
----> 1 a.a1 = 4

<string> in __setattr__(self, name, value)

FrozenInstanceError: cannot assign to field 'a1'

嗯. .尽管这是过时的,让我在这里补充我的2分:-)

class ConstDict(dict):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(ConstDict, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)

    def __setitem__(self, key, value):
        if key in self:
            raise ValueError("Value %s already exists" % (key))
        super(ConstDict, self).__setitem__(key, value)

您可以防止在那里发生任何更新,而不是破坏ValueError。这样做的一个好处是,您可以在程序中动态地添加常数,但一旦设置了常数就不能更改。你也可以在设置常量之前添加任何规则(比如key必须是字符串或小写字符串或大写字符串等)

然而,我不认为在Python中设置常量有任何重要性。没有优化可以像在C中那样发生,因此它是不需要的,我猜。

我为python const写了一个util lib: Kkconst - pypi 支持str, int, float, datetime

const字段实例将保持其基类型行为。

例如:

from __future__ import print_function
from kkconst import (
    BaseConst,
    ConstFloatField,
)

class MathConst(BaseConst):
    PI = ConstFloatField(3.1415926, verbose_name=u"Pi")
    E = ConstFloatField(2.7182818284, verbose_name=u"mathematical constant")  # Euler's number"
    GOLDEN_RATIO = ConstFloatField(0.6180339887, verbose_name=u"Golden Ratio")

magic_num = MathConst.GOLDEN_RATIO
assert isinstance(magic_num, ConstFloatField)
assert isinstance(magic_num, float)

print(magic_num)  # 0.6180339887
print(magic_num.verbose_name)  # Golden Ratio

更多详细用法,你可以阅读pypi url: Pypi或github

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。

我将创建一个重写基对象类的__setattr__方法的类,并用它包装我的常量,注意我使用的是python 2.7:

class const(object):
    def __init__(self, val):
        super(const, self).__setattr__("value", val)
    def __setattr__(self, name, val):
        raise ValueError("Trying to change a constant value", self)

换行字符串:

>>> constObj = const("Try to change me")
>>> constObj.value
'Try to change me'
>>> constObj.value = "Changed"
Traceback (most recent call last):
   ...
ValueError: Trying to change a constant value
>>> constObj2 = const(" or not")
>>> mutableObj = constObj.value + constObj2.value
>>> mutableObj #just a string
'Try to change me or not'

这很简单,但如果你想像使用非常量对象一样使用常量(不使用constObj.value),它会更密集一些。这可能会导致问题,所以最好保留.value来显示和知道您正在使用常量进行操作(尽管可能不是最“python”的方式)。
