View Template Encoding Issue

[Steven Garcia]

This problem is driving me nuts. I am so lost..

My app:

require "roda"
require 'slim'
Slim::Engine.options[:encoding]= 'utf-8'

class App < Roda
  include Helpers
  require './models/bnb.rb'
  plugin :i18n, :locale => ['gl','es','en']
  plugin :render, engine: 'slim', views: 'views', layout: 'layout'

The error:

#<Encoding::InvalidByteSequenceError: /www/myapp/releases/18/views/home.slim is not valid US-ASCII>

I've checked both home.slim, and layout.slim along with any included partials as follows:


$ file -I views/home.slim
$ file -I views/layout.slim
$ file -I views/_menu.slim

which all return: "text/plain; charset=utf-8"

The app runs just fine in development mode on my mac. But I cant deploy it because it keeps throwing this ascii error at me, even though clearly the files are encoded as utf8

Could it be an issue with the render plugin? Slim? I have no idea

Would be happy to send you a zipped archive of the app (its very small) if necessary

As the backtrace indicates, the exception is raised by Tilt.  You probably need to set the default encoding in Tilt:

plugin :render, engine: 'slim', views: 'views', layout: 'layout', template_opts: {default_encoding: 'UTF-8'}

 

If you don't set the :default_encoding option, it defaults to Encoding.default_external, which varies depending on the environment (it's probably UTF-8 on your mac and US-ASCII where you are deploying).

Thanks,
