Question

Now I use elixir with my mysql database and the redispy with redis and i select UTF-8 at all the place.
I wanna to get some data writing in chinese like {'Info':‘8折’，'Name'：'家乐福'} but what i got is like this:

{'Info': u'8\u6298', 'Name': u'\u5bb6\u4e50\u798f'}

and after i store this dict to redis and get it out by redispy it becomes:

{"Info": "8\u6298", "Name": "\u5bb6\u4e50\u798f"}

I know if i add u' before 8\u6298 and print it it will shou me "8折" but is there a function or another solution to this problem?

Answer 1

The latter looks like json, try decoding it first:

import json

resp = '{"Info": "8\u6298", "Name": "\u5bb6\u4e50\u798f"}'
print json.loads(resp)

## {u'Info': u'8\u6298', u'Name': u'\u5bb6\u4e50\u798f'}
