Hi,
i have a problem with the character set.
I am using the REST API modular input.
However, characters are broken in the xml data received in response through the REST API.
like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<tag1>
<![CDATA[ì ì미ì ë§ìì ì¸ì ë ì²ì¶]]>
</tag1>
I tried this thing:
modify props.conf
[sourcetype]
CHARSET = UTF-8
modify responsehandler.py
coding: utf-8
import sys
reload(sys)
sys.setdefaultencoding('utf-8')
import json
import datetime
class MyResponseHandler:
def __init__(self,**args):
pass
def __call__(self, response_object,raw_response_output,response_type,req_args,endpoint):
cookies = response_object.cookies
if cookies:
req_args["cookies"] = cookies
raw_response_output.encode('utf-8')
print_xml_stream(raw_response_output)
....(skip)
what should I do?
It seems like your broken text is encoded with iso-8859-1(Latin1). Is the first line of your responsehandler.py "coding: utf-8" just a typo? It should be something like "#-- coding: utf-8 --".
that is a typo.
splunk answer comment form automatically change that String.
i write like this :
"# -- coding : utf-8 --"
but, that is broken yet.
