Create an anonymous class instance in python

问题

Sometimes i need to create an anonymous class instance in python, just like c#:

var o= new {attr1="somehing", attr2=344};

but in python i do it in this way:

class Dummy: pass
o = Dummy()
o.attr1 = 'something'
o.attr2 = 344
#EDIT 1
print o.attr1, o.attr2

how can do that in pythonic way in single statement?

回答1:

o = type('Dummy', (object,), { "attr1": "somehing", "attr2": 344 })

o.attr3 = "test"
print o.attr1, o.attr2, o.attr3

回答2:

type

while this is not precisely a single statement I think creating a wrapper around the magic of the accepted answer makes it by far more readable.

import inspect 

# wrap the type call around a function 
# use kwargs to allow named function arguments
def create_type(name, **kwargs):
    return type(name, (object,), kwargs)

# example call to make a structure
p = create_type('foobar', xxx='barfoo', seti=0)

assert p.xxx == 'barfoo'
assert p.seti == 0

print inspect.getmembers(p)

Output

[('__class__', <type 'type'>),
 ('__delattr__', <slot wrapper '__delattr__' of 'object' objects>),

 ('__weakref__', <attribute '__weakref__' of 'foobar' objects>),
 # here they are
 ('seti', 0),
 ('xxx', 'barfoo')]

namedtuple

from collections import namedtuple

d = { 'a' : 'foo', 'b' : 'bar' }
foobar = namedtuple('foobar', d.keys())(**d)
print foobar

If you are using Python 3.3 or later, you can use types.SimpleNamespace:

from types import SimpleNamespace

o = SimpleNamespace(attr1="something", attr2=344)
print(o)

# namespace(attr1='something', attr2=344)

回答4:

class attrdict(dict):
    def __getattr__(self, key):
        return self[key]

o = attrdict(attr1='something', attr2=344)

o.attr1

But it seems like you should probably just use a standard dict.

I prefer the dict answer from mwhite, but here's how I've done it in the past using the "magic" of kwargs (pun intended).

class ObjectFromDict(object):
    def __init__(**kwargs):
        for k in kwargs:
            if k not in self.__dict__:
                setattr(k,v)

myObj = ObjectFromDict(**{'foo': 'bar', 'baz': 'monkey'})
print myObj.foo #bar
