What about other unicode characters? Such as special characters in
other languages? I'm developing a search engine which searches for
files inside Linux packages. Whenever somebody enters a Turkish
character as a search term, urls.py can't handle that. Somebody [1]
has found a workaround by accepting everything except for "/" in the
url. But I'm wondering if it could be dangerous for me as I'm doing a
database search.
My url patterns used to be like:
(r'^(?P<version>[-0-9A-Za-z]+)/(?P<term>[-_.0-9A-Za-z]+)/$',
'search_in_all_packages'),
Then I tried appending special characters, and some encoding stuff:
(r'^(?P<version>[-0-9A-Za-z]+)/(?P<term>[-_.0-9A-Za-zıİğĞüÜşŞöÖçÇ ]
+)/$', 'search_in_all_packages')
then
(u'^(?P<version>[-0-9A-Za-z]+)/(?P<term>[-_.0-9A-Za-zıİğĞüÜşŞöÖçÇ ]
+)/$', 'search_in_all_packages').encode("utf-8")
but none of them worked.
