I am having trouble pickling, and then saving to the DB, django models with Unicode text in them. The site is for Spanish speakers, so we need our ñs, és and ös.
I implemented an unlimited undo feature for a Django site, using this PickleField snippet: http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/513/. I created a model that holds each object's state at a certain datetime, like so: from fields import PickledObjectField class UndoRecord(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey(User) pickle = PickledObjectField() date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) and then in my views, whenever a user changes something, I save an UndoRecord like so: undo = UndoRecord(user=request.user, pickle=obj) undo.save() This works fine, except when the object that I am saving has non-ASCII characters in it, which case I get a lovely: DjangoUnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 372-373: invalid data. You passed in "crbml_core.models\nMusico\np1\n (tRp2\n(dp3\nS'foto'\np4\nccopy_reg\n_reconstructor\np5\n (cdjango.db.models.fields.files\nImageFieldFile\np6\nc__builtin__ \nobject\np7\nNtRp8\n (dp9\nS'_committed'\np10\nI01\nsS'_file'\np11\nNsS'name'\np12\nVuploads/ musicos/235470296_54ae5af3e9_o.jpg \np13\nsS'closed'\np14\nI00\nsbsS'user_id'\np15\nNsS'visible'\np16\nI1\nsS'influencias'\np17\nVFaith No More\np18\nsS'nombre'\np19\nV\xd1\xed\xfa\xf6\np20\nsS'id'\np21\nL2L \nsb." (<class 'rbml_core.fields.PickledObject'>) I have been trying to fix this using the approach show here: http://www.mail-archive.com/django-users@googlegroups.com/msg67883.html, but no such luck. Unicode errors are my particular achilles' heel, so any help is much appreciated. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
