Hi, Guys,
Thanks for points. Here some summary.
event.description is <class
'google.appengine.api.datastore_types.Text'> instance contains text.
This class defines as follow:
class Text(unicode):
"""A long string type.
Strings of any length can be stored in the datastore using this
type. It behaves identically to the Python unicode type, except for
the constructor, which only accepts str and unicode arguments.
"""
So, instance is actually an unicode.
I did look into web/utils.py #safeunicode method and update code as
follow:
diff --git a/web/utils.py b/web/utils.py
index 29a22d1..2d4846d 100755
--- a/web/utils.py
+++ b/web/utils.py
@@ -320,7 +320,7 @@ def safeunicode(obj, encoding='utf-8'):
u'\u1234'
"""
t = type(obj)
- if t is unicode:
+ if isinstance(obj,unicode):
return obj
elif t is str:
return obj.decode(encoding)
isinstance(object, classinfo)
Return true if the object argument is an instance of the classinfo
argument, or of a (direct or indirect) subclass thereof...[1]
Maybe should apply #isinstance to next elif statement, i.e. "elif t is
str:"
I dunno side-effect :) but looks like a good solution. I am new to
python and 'd like to know your point on it?
Thanks!
