python3 UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode characters in position 95-98: character maps to <undefined>

问题

A month ago I encountered this Github: https://github.com/taraslayshchuk/es2csv

I installed this package via pip3 in Linux ubuntu. When I wanted to use this package, I encountered the problem that this package is meant for python2. I dived into the code and soon I found the problem.

                for line in open(self.tmp_file, 'r'):
                timer += 1
                bar.update(timer)
                line_as_dict = json.loads(line)
                line_dict_utf8 = {k: v.encode('utf8') if isinstance(v, unicode) else v for k, v in line_as_dict.items()}
                csv_writer.writerow(line_dict_utf8)
            output_file.close()
            bar.finish()
        else:
            print('There is no docs with selected field(s): %s.' % ','.join(self.opts.fields))

The code did a check for unicode, this is not necessary within python3 Therefore, I changed the code to the code below. As result, The package worked properly under Ubuntu 16.

                for line in open(self.tmp_file, 'r'):
                timer += 1
                bar.update(timer)
                line_as_dict = json.loads(line)
                # line_dict_utf8 = {k: v.encode('utf8') if isinstance(v, unicode) else v for k, v in line_as_dict.items()}
                csv_writer.writerow(line_as_dict)
            output_file.close()
            bar.finish()
        else:
            print('There is no docs with selected field(s): %s.' % ','.join(self.opts.fields))

But a month later, it was necessary to get the es2csv package working on a Windows 10 operating system. After doing the exact same adjustments with es2csv under Windows 10, I received the following error message after I tried to run es2csv:

    PS C:\> es2csv -u 192.168.230.151:9200 -i scrapy -o database.csv -q '*'

UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode characters in position 95-98: character maps to <undefined>

Does anyone has an idea how to fix this error message?

回答1:

It's due to the default behaviour of open in Python 3. By default, Python 3 will open files in Text mode, which means that it also has to apply a text decoding, such as utf-8 or ASCII, for every character it reads.

Python will use your locale to determine the most suitable encoding. On OS X and Linux, this is usually UTF-8. On Windows, it'll use an 8-bit character set, such windows-1252, to match the behaviour of Notepad.

As an 8-bit character set only has a limited number of characters, it's very easy to end up trying to write a character not supported by the character set. For example, if you tried to write a Hebrew character with Windows-1252, the Western European character set.

To resolve your problem, you simply need to override the automatic encoding selection in open and hardcode it to use UTF-8:

for line in open(self.tmp_file, 'r', encoding='utf-8'):
