Yeah, that's fine, but I'm cc'ing the C::A list so that others can benefit from this discussion.
Also, sorry for taking so long to get back to you on this.
I recently added your
CGI::Application::Plugin::JSON module to my project, and was very
pleased until I noticed my french language stuff with utf8 characters,
accents and so on, was mangled in the output.
I have temporarily abandonned the plugin and replaced the code as follows:
# send the JSON in the document body (removed)
#$self-json_body( $data );
# Signal to JSON::Any to use utf8
$ENV{JSON_ANY_CONFIG} = utf8=1;
my $j = JSON::Any-new;
my $json = $j-encode($data);
return $json;
Since CAP::JSON uses JSON::Any and it calls encode() then you should just be able to set
$ENV{JSON_ANY_CONFIG} = utf8=1 in your application somewhere (probably in the prerun or init stages).
Just wondered if you had come across this and had any thoughts or suggestions.
But since the JSON_ANY_CONFIG thing isn't documented anywhere, it's probably best to use something
else. How about $self-json_args()? It would just keep the args around and pass them to JSON::Any's
new() method. So in your init/prerun you'd do something like this:
$self-json_args(utf8 = 1);
And now that I think about it, all these json_* methods are kind of annoying. I probably should have
gone with $self-json-* instead. Oh well...
