Stuck with urllib.quote and Unicode/UTF-8
Hi!
I am stuck with calling URLs with parameters containing non-ASCII
characters. I'm creating a url like this.
url = 'http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=' +
urllib.quote(address) + '&sensor=false&language=DE'
address can be a string like u"Köln, Nordrhein-Westfalen". This results in
http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=K%F6ln%2C%20Nordrhein-Westfalen&sensor=false&language=DE
and this doesn't seem to meet Google's Encoding expectations. I get an
"INVALID REQUEST" response. (The same things works if there are only
ASCII characters in the address.)
When I manually enter the "Köln"... string in the Firefox address bar,
Firefox makes the URL
http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?address=K%C3%B6ln,%20Nordrhein-Westfalen&sensor=false&language=DE
out of this and it works fine. %C3%B6 seems to be the url-encoded
representation of an UTF-8 representation of a "ö" character.
So the next thing I tried is to get address utf-8-encoded, like this:
url = 'http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=' +
urllib.quote(address.encode('utf-8')) + '&sensor=false&language=DE'
This gives me an error like
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xf6 in position
1: ordinal not in range(128)
Again, the input string for address is u"Köln, Nordrhein-Westfalen".
Can you see what I'm doing wrong or what I would have to to to get
from u"ö" to "%C3%B6"?
Thanks!
Marian

Printing Filenames with non-Ascii-Characters
Hi, I am very new to Python and have run into the following problem. If I do something like dir = os.listdir(somepath) for d in dir: print d The program fails for filenames that contain non-ascii characters. 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 33-34: I have noticed that this seems to be a very common problem. I have read a lot of postings regarding it but not really found a solution. Is there a simple one? What I specifically do not understand is why Python wants to interpret the string as ASCII at all. Where is this setting hidden? I am running Python 2.3.4 on Windows XP and I want to run the program on Debian sarge later.

Re: Printing Filenames with non-Ascii-Characters
Hi,
Thank you very much, you have collectively cleared up some of the confusion.
English windows command prompt uses cp437 charset.
To be exact my Windows is german but I am not outputting to the command
prompt
window. I am using eclipse with the pydev plugin as development platform and
the output is redirected to the console view in the IDE. I am not sure how
this affects the problem and have since tried a vanilla console too. The
problem stays the same, though.
I wonder what surprises are waiting for me when I first move this to my
linux-box :-). I believe it uses UTF-8 throughout.
> print d.encode('cp437')
So I would have to specify the encoding on every call to print? I am sure to
forget and I don't like the program dying, in my case garbled output would be
much more acceptable.
Is there some global way of forcing an encoding instead of the default
'ascii'? I have found references to setencoding() but this seems to have gone
away.
The issue is a terminal only understand certain character set.
I have experimented a bit now and I can make it work using encode(). The
eclipse console uses a different encoding than my windows command prompt, by
the way. I am sure this can be configured somewhere but I do not really care
at the moment.
> If you have unicode string, like d in your case, you have to encode it before
it can be printed.
I got that now.
So encode() is a method of a unicode string, right?. I come from a background
of statically typed languages so I am a bit queasy when I am not allowed to
explicitly specify type.
How can I, maybe by print()-ing something, find out what type d actually is
of? Just to make sure and get a better feeling for the system?
Should d at any time not be a unicode string but some other flavour of string,
will encode() still work? Or do I need to write a function myPrint() that
distinguishes them by type and calls encode() only for unicode strings?
So how did you get a unicoded d to start with?
I have asked myself this question before after reading the docs for
os.listdir(). But I have no way of finding out what type d really is (see
question above :-)). So I was dead-reckoning.
Can I force a string to be of a certain type? Like
nonunicode=unicode.encode("specialencoding")
How would I do it the other way round? From encoded representation to full
unicode?
If 'somepath' is unicode, os.listdir returns a list of unicode.
> So why is somepath unicode?
> One possible source is XML parser, which returns string in unicode.
I get a root-directory from XML and I walk the filesystem from there. That
explains it.
Windows NT support unicode filename. I'm not sure about Linux. The
result maybe slightly differ.
I think I will worry about that later. I can create files using german
umlauts
on the linux box. I am sure I will find a way to move those names into my
Python program.
I will not move data between the systems so there will not be much of
a problem.

Re: Printing Filenames with non-Ascii-Characters
Hi, Don't be tempted to ever change sys.defaultencoding in site.py, this is site specific, meaning that if you ever distribute them, programs relying on this setting may fail on other people's Python installations. But wouldn't that be correct in my case? > If you're printing to the console, modern Pythons will try to guess the > console's encoding (e.g. cp850). But it seems to have quessed wrong. I don't blame it, I would not know of any way to reliably figure out this setting. My console can print the filenames in question fine, I can verify that by simple listing the directory, so it can display more than plain ascii. The error message seems to indicate that ascii is used as target. So if I were to fix this in sity.py to configure whatever encoding is actually used on my system, I could print() my filenames without explicitly calling encode()? If the program then fails on other people's installations that would mean one of two things: 1) They have not configured their encoding correctly. 2) The data to be printed cannot be encoded. This is unlikely as it comes from a local filename. So wouldn't fixing site.py be the right thing to do? To enable Python to print everything that can actually be printed and not barf at things it could print but cannot because it defaults to plain ascii?

Re: Printing Filenames with non-Ascii-Characters
Hi, Have you set the coding cookie in your file? Yes. I set it to Utf-8 as that's what I use for all my development. Try adding this as the first or second line. # -*- coding: cp850 -*- Python will then know how your file is encoded That is relevant to the encoding of source-files, right? How does it affect printing to standard out? If it would I would expect UTF-8 data on my console. That would be fine, it can encode everything and as I have written in another posting in my case garbled data is better than termination of my program. But it uses 'ascii', at least if I can believe the error message it gave.

Re: Printing Filenames with non-Ascii-Characters
Hi, > Python's drive towards uncompromising explicitness pays off big time when you're dealing with multilingual data.

pygame.mixer.music not playing
Hi,
I am trying to make pygame play music on windows. This simple program:
import pygame,time
pygame.init()
print "Mixer settings", pygame.mixer.get_init()
print "Mixer channels", pygame.mixer.get_num_channels()
pygame.mixer.music.set_volume(1.0)
pygame.mixer.music.load('file1.mp3)
print "Play"
pygame.mixer.music.play()
while pygame.mixer.music.get_busy():
print "Playing", pygame.mixer.music.get_pos()
time.sleep(1)
print "Done"
seems to work. It runs the loop and prints values that look like ms into the
file. After a reasonable time corresponding to the length of "file1.mp3" the
loop is exited and the program ends.
The same thing happens for .mp3 files, .ogg files and .wav files.
Fine. The only problem is that there is no sound :-).
What am I doing wrong? pyGame example games do play sound, but I have not
found an example that uses music.
My ultimate goal is to build a MP3 jukebox that runs on Windows and Linux. I
have chosen pyGame as I am making a graphical Frontend using OpenGL. I have
also tried to look at pymad (which I could not get to work on Windows, no
C-Compiler on this machine and I could not find binaries) and audiere (no
skipping, at least in the python binding. A feature I would like to have.)

Re: pygame.mixer.music not playing
Hi,
Search the net. You are not the first to try and build a jukebox out of pygame ;)
I did find a few, yes.
Currently this is a toy project as I am learning the language, so early
success means more to me than perfect results. And, as I said, I do not really
have an alternative.
Maybe some way to remote control another player would be in order. Leave it
to software that is specialized and all. But I would want something that runs
on Windows and Linux which narrows down my options.
You have a typo in the code you posted that may be your problem.
You are refering to the missing ' in the filename?
pygame.mixer.music.load('file1.mp3)
No, that's not the problem. I did paste working code but I then edited out the
full absolute path that I had coded into the program and introduced the error.
I also tried your sample but no difference. Must be something on my system
as it does seem to play...

Re: pygame.mixer.music not playing
Hi,
Also you can try and look for another sound package, like maybe pyFMOD
I have looked at it. While I do not like some of the boasting on the FMOD
site it does seem very suitable.
FMOD is cross-platform but pyFMOD is available only as Win32-Setup. Does
that mean it cannot be made to work on Linux or is it just not packaged
for it? It looks like your standard DLL-Import-File as known from other
languages and uses ctypes (had to install that first). How hard can it be
to make a version that loads a shared library with the same API on Linux?
To make pyFMOD work with the current version of FMOD I had to fix it in a
few obvious places. After doing so the new version of my micro-program
looks like this:
import time
from pyFMOD import *
res = FSOUND_Init(44100, 32, 0)
print "FSOUND_Init() =", res
stream = FSOUND_Stream_Open("file1.mp3",0,0,0)
print "FSOUND_Stream_Open() =", stream
res = FSOUND_Stream_Play(FSOUND_FREE,stream)
print "FSOUND_Stream_Play() =", res
while True:
print "FSOUND_Stream_GetTime() =", FSOUND_Stream_GetTime(stream)
time.sleep(1)
And plays fine. Now I need to read up on FMODs API to find out how to
eliminate the "while True;" but that should not be a problem. This would give
me a very rich API with full control.
I am having fun! Thank you all.

pyFMOD writing a callback function in Python
Hi, I am using the FMOD audio-library with the pyFMOD python bindings. pyFMOD uses ctypes. It is possible to register callback functions with FMOD that are called at certain points in the processing pipeline or when certain events happen. I am expecially interested in the one that fires when a currently playing stream ends. This is what the declaration in pyFMOD looks like: _FSOUND_Stream_SetEndCallback = getattr(fmod,"[EMAIL PROTECTED]") _FSOUND_Stream_SetEndCallback.restype = c_byte def FSOUND_Stream_SetEndCallback(stream, callback, userdata): result = _FSOUND_Stream_SetEndCallback(c_int(stream), c_int(callback), c_int(userdata)) if not result: raise fmod_exception() I cannot make it work, however. I tried: def _sound_end_callback(stream,buf,len,userdata): print "_sound_end_callback(): Stream has reached the end." as simplest possible callback function. I am registering it like this: pyFMOD.FSOUND_Stream_SetEndCallback(_currenttrack,_sound_end_callback,0) And this is how my program dies: File "d:\projekte\eclipse\workspace\gettone\gettonesound.py", line 175, in sound_tick pyFMOD.FSOUND_Stream_SetEndCallback(_currenttrack,_sound_end_callback,0) File "c:\programme\Python23\lib\site-packages\pyFMOD.py", line 690, in FSOUND_Stream_SetEndCallback result = _FSOUND_Stream_SetEndCallback(c_int(stream), c_int(callback), c_int(userdata)) TypeError: int expected instead of function instance I am very new to Python and have zero idea what the problem is nor how to solve it. In some of my other languages I would have to explicitly make a function pointer and possibly have to cast that to an int to pass it to SetEndCallback, but that seems very inappropriate in Python...

Re: pyFMOD writing a callback function in Python
Hi, I was only able to find fmodapi374.zip (for windows), and that version doesn't > seem to work with the pyFMOD release I found. I found that too. But I could easily fix pyFMOD to use the FMOD 374. A few of the exports have been renamed and parameters have been added to others. As the total size of all parameters are encoded in the exported names all of these errors are caught when importing so you can fix them one by one by looking it up in the FMOD-Docs. All in all, it should look similar (I can't test it!) to this code: I will try that when I get around to playing with the stuff again. You should also be aware that you have to keep the callback_function object alive *as long as the FMOD library is using it*! While very obvious I am prone to forget that sometime :-).

Launch an application and continue the script's execution
Hello,
I am new in Python programming and I have the following problem:
I have a script in which I need to open an application (called from a batch
file - "trace.bat"). For this purpuse, I'm executing the following piece of
code:
Â
import os, win32process
from win32api import Sleep
from ctypes import windll, c_double
amt = windll.LoadLibrary("D:\\Marian\\Proiecte\\AMT\\Libs\\AMT_Temp_DLL.dll")
amt.InitUIForDLL()
amt.SetKL30()
Sleep(1000)
amt.SetKL15()
Sleep(1000)
os.chdir("D:\\Marian\\Proiecte\\AMT\\Trace")
os.startfile("launch_trace.bat")
#subprocess.call("D:\\Marian\\Proiecte\\AMT\\Trace\\trace.bat")
#pr = win32process.CreateProcess(None,
"D:\\Marian\\Proiecte\\AMT\\Trace\\trace.bat", None, None, 0,
win32process.NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS, None, None, win32process.STARTUPINFO())
print "OK!!!"
But, when I call the "os.startfile("launch_trace.bat")" command, the program
prompter appears, but the program called in the batch file is opened ONLY after
the whole script has finished the execution.
Unfortunatley, after this line there are some very important things that has to
be executed in the right order. I mean, the execution of the batch file is
important for the rest of the code.
What is strange is that if I execute this code step-by-step, using the
debugger, or if I put a breakpoint on the "launch_trace" line and then I step
on it, everything is working fine - the Trace application is launced correctly.
Could anyone help in this direction? I need to launch the application and after
this I want to continue the execution of the script.
Thank you in advance!
P.S. I've also tried with processes (see the commented lines) and I get the
same problems; for MSWord application, the behavior is the same - it is
launched after the script ends. Also, I have to mention that I don't have a DLL
of this application and it is not a COM application in order to control it from
Python.
