How to print non-ASCII characters in Python

Question

I had a problem when I print (or write to a file) non-ASCII characters in Python. I solved this by overriding the method strin my own objects and making "x.encode (" utf-8 ") inside it, where x is the property inside the object.

But if I get a third-party object, and I do "str (object)", and this object has a non-ASCII character inside, it will fail.

So the question is: is there a way to tell the method strthat the object is UTF-8 encoded, in general? I am working with Python 2.5.4.

Answer 1

, Unix-, var, :

export LC_CTYPE = "es: ES.UTF-8"

, utf-8, ,

Answer 2

str() Unicode Python < 3.0.

repr(obj) str(obj). repr() ASCII, , ASCII.

, -, unicode. , :

fileObj = codecs.open( "someFile", "w", "utf-8" )

Unicode fileObj, . print, sys.stdout:

import sys, codecs, locale
print str(sys.stdout.encoding)
sys.stdout = codecs.getwriter(locale.getpreferredencoding())(sys.stdout)
line = u"\u0411\n"
print type(line), len(line)
sys.stdout.write(line)
print line

Answer 3

How about using unicode(object)and defining a method __unicode__on your classes?

Then you know its Unicode, and you can encode it to a file anyway.

Answer 4

just insert these two lines at the top of your code

• #! / Usr / local / bin / python
• # coding: latin-1
