How to correctly produce and consume UTF-8 json in Python3? (with flask and requests)
You can fix the way you make the request by encoding the data
object :
my_request = requests.post('http://localhost:5000/reply', headers=HEADERS, data=DATA.encode('utf-8'))#>>> ít wórked with óíá!
If you add a try/except statement in the app, it returns :
try: params = request.jsonexcept Exception as e: params = None print(e)
400 Bad Request: Failed to decode JSON object: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xf3 in position 14: invalid continuation byte
You could use this pattern to assign a default value for param
I have not tried the code but may be setting
app.config['JSON_AS_ASCII'] = False
may help.
