I use ruby 2.2.3p173, and Sublime 3. All my string already on encode('utf-8'). In Linux I have, what I expect. Try make output:
a = [ "Привет" ]
puts "puts=#{a}"
p "p=#{a}"
print "print=#{a}\n"
puts a[ 0 ]
p a[ 0 ]
print a[ 0 ] + "\n"
p a[ 0 ].encoding
p __ENCODING__
Output is:
puts=["\u041F\u0440\u0438\u0432\u0435\u0442"]
"p=[\"\\u041F\\u0440\\u0438\\u0432\\u0435\\u0442\"]"
print=["\u041F\u0440\u0438\u0432\u0435\u0442"]
Привет
"\u041F\u0440\u0438\u0432\u0435\u0442"
Привет
#<Encoding:UTF-8>
#<Encoding:UTF-8>
I expect:
puts=["Привет"]
"p=[\"Привет\"]"
print=["Привет"]
Привет
"Привет"
Привет
How I can print Array with several "utf-8" string in one line?
This is particularly observed on Windows. On other *nix systems, it may work alright - For instance, on https://repl.it/ you see right output, as it is most likely hosted on a *nix system.
As per documentation, Array#to_s
is
Alias for: inspect
Array#inspect
invokes inspect
on each of the array member, in this case, array members are all strings, thus String#inspect
will be invoked.
String#inspect
uses Encoding#default_external
as specified in documentation for inspection results.
The default external encoding is used by default for strings created from the following locations:
- CSV
- File data read from disk
- SDBM
- StringIO
- Zlib::GzipReader
- Zlib::GzipWriter
- String#inspect
- Regexp#inspect
On Windows, default external encoding is not UTF-8, and hence, we see the escaped sequences in output of String#inspect
.
p Encoding::default_external
#=> #<Encoding:IBM437>
We change the default external encoding to UTF-8, output will be proper:
Encoding::default_external = Encoding::UTF_8
a = [ "Привет" ]
puts "puts=#{a}"
#=> puts=["Привет"]
p "p=#{a}"
#=> "p=[\"Привет\"]"
