unfortunately that's what's required. The best practice in Python
is that any data entering your application should be decoded to Python
unicode objects immediately - that way you never need to be concerned
about encodings within the application. If/when you migrate to
Python 3.0, its actually not possible to have a string object without
decoding at some step.
the error message is raised by Pysqlite, and the reason its only on
one system may be that the error message is a recent addition to
pysqlite as of very recent versions.
A SQLAlchemy technique to convert the data as it becomes a bind
parameter would be:
class UTF8String(TypeDecorator):
impl = Unicode
def process_bind_param(self, value, dialect):
return value.decode('utf-8')
