在Python中使用protobuf2.6.1 string format utf-8 and unicode error

版本信息:

protobuf: v2.6.1

python: 2.7

 

关于在Python中使用protobuf时 string格式字段的编码问题

在python中编码格式多采用utf-8格式。而protobuf

官网中这样说到：

如果不做处理，在message 中定义了一个string类型的字段后，出现错误如下:

ERROR：

ValueError: '\xe5\x94\x90\xe6\x9e\x9c' has type bytes, but isn't in 7-bit ASCII encoding. Non-ASCII strings must be converted to unicode objects before being added.

 

解决办法有两种。如下：

1) 一劳永逸的方法-修改源码

　　a. 文件../google/protobuf/internal/decoder.py

def StringDecoder(field_number, is_repeated, is_packed, key, new_default):
  """Returns a decoder for a string field."""

  local_DecodeVarint = _DecodeVarint
  local_unicode = unicode

  def _ConvertToUnicode(byte_str):
    try:
      #return local_unicode(byte_str, 'utf-8') # 注释掉 不转码
      return byte_str
    except UnicodeDecodeError, e:
      # add more information to the error message and re-raise it.
      e.reason = '%s in field: %s' % (e, key.full_name)
      raise

    b. 文件../google/protobuf/internal/type_checkers.py

class UnicodeValueChecker(object):

  """Checker used for string fields.

  Always returns a unicode value, even if the input is of type str.
  """

  def CheckValue(self, proposed_value):
    if not isinstance(proposed_value, (bytes, unicode)):
      message = ('%.1024r has type %s, but expected one of: %s' %
                 (proposed_value, type(proposed_value), (bytes, unicode)))
      raise TypeError(message)

    # If the value is of type 'bytes' make sure that it is in 7-bit ASCII
    # encoding.
#    if isinstance(proposed_value, bytes):
#      try:
#        proposed_value = proposed_value.decode('ascii')
#      except UnicodeDecodeError:
#        raise ValueError('%.1024r has type bytes, but isn\'t in 7-bit ASCII '
#                         'encoding. Non-ASCII strings must be converted to '
#                         'unicode objects before being added.' %
#                         (proposed_value))
    return proposed_value

2) 很烦的方法-手动转码

　　在message中赋值时 都带上 decode("utf-8")
