Comment:
It does compare to string but it's not a string:
{{{
>>> from django.utils.functional import SimpleLazyObject
>>> from django.utils.encoding import force_text
>>> force_text(SimpleLazyObject(lambda: 'aaa'))
<SimpleLazyObject: 'aaa'>
}}}
so:
{{{
>>> force_text(SimpleLazyObject(lambda: 'aaa')) == 'aaa'
True
>>> import json
>>> json.dumps(force_text(SimpleLazyObject(lambda: 'aaa')))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/json/__init__.py", line 230, in dumps
return _default_encoder.encode(obj)
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/json/encoder.py", line 186, in encode
return encode_basestring_ascii(o)
TypeError: first argument must be a string, not SimpleLazyObject
}}}
