Anyone has a link or best practices for handling Unicode characters across python applications? or we need to convert the strings all over the place?
[EDIT]
Currently we are converting everything we post in urlencode to utf-8 but im wondering if there is a better way to handle that instead of calling encode(‘UTF-8’)
See Python documentation on unicode.
In short: internally only work with
unicodeobjects. If you need to talk to outside world,.decode()as early as you can on input and.encode()as late as you can on output.
