Hello
I'm french and there are lot of spécial caractères in my Dancer App,

é à ç etc...

I use this config.yml

charset: "UTF-8"

template: "template_toolkit"

engines:
   template_toolkit:
     encoding: 'utf8'
     start_tag: '[%'
     end_tag:   '%]'

....

plugins:
    Database:
        connections:
                   db:
                          driver:   'mysql'
                          database: 'asav'
                          host:     'localhost'
                          port:     3306
                          username: 'username'
                          password: 'password'
                          connection_check_threshold: 10
                          dbi_params:
                                      RaiseError: 1
                                      AutoCommit: 1
                                      mysql_enable_utf8 : 1
                                      charset: utf8
                          log_queries: 1

all is completely transparency - I use this locale config in my centos 6.5

locale
LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

mysql> show create database db;
+----------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
| Database | Create Database                                               |
+----------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
| db     | CREATE DATABASE `db` /*!40100 DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 */ |
+----------+---------------------------------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

I use debug cmd to show data for debuging in console - all works well

I use redis or YAML , please do not use session JSON, there are a bug with accents when you get data with accents stored in session.

#session: 'YAML'
session: 'Redis'
#session: "JSON"

I start with

use utf8; on each lib.pm

bye

I think Dancer::Logger::Console should do that when config.yml contains charset: "UTF-8".

I agree.

My test case boiled things down too far. My real issue was different. It was yet another case of me thinking Perl somehow tags strings with their source encoding, so that data coming from a UTF-8 source and going out to a UTF-8 sink wouldn't need translation. I needed to add an explicit encode('utf-8', $s) wrapper to that code path.

I have had lot problems with UTF-8. I think, main point which made things simpler for me:

Perl uses internally _unicode_ strings. So everything coming in or going out needs decoding or encoding. Without explicitly doing so, all strings are treated as being ASCII/Latin1 encoded.

For me main problem is: in core is nothing to turn every input/output automatically convert from/to utf-8. Every user has to write pretty boring boilerplate to cover all possibilities. I use utf8::all for this, but some are criticizing it.
