An easy question, but I don't find the answer in the docs :-( I have a sqlite3 database containing accented characters (latin-1). How do I set the right encoding? For instance if I do this:
#-*- encoding: latin-1 -*- from pysqlite2 import dbapi2 as sqlite import os DBFILE="/tmp/example.db" def writedb(conn): c = conn.cursor() c.executescript(""" create table example (word char(20)); insert into example values ("così"); """) c.close() def readdb(conn): c = conn.cursor() c.execute("select * from example;") #print c.fetchall() c.close() if __name__ == "__main__": conn = sqlite.connect(DBFILE) writedb(conn) readdb(conn) conn.close() os.remove(DBFILE) I get UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xec in position 3: unexpected end of data (notice, even if the 'print' statement is commented.
