First make sure your DB encoding is UTF-8 not the latin1
> The error I keep having is something like this:
> ERREUR: Séquence d'octets invalide pour le codage «UTF8» : 0xe02063
then try this:
def smart_str(s, encoding='utf-8', errors='strict'):
"""
Returns a bytestring version of 's', encoded as specified in
'encoding'.
"""
if not isinstance(s, basestring):
try:
return str(s)
except UnicodeEncodeError:
return unicode(s).encode(encoding, errors)
elif isinstance(s, unicode):
return s.encode(encoding, errors)
elif s and encoding != 'utf-8':
return s.decode('utf-8', errors).encode(encoding, errors)
else:
return s
