Cyrillic Encoding in Urllib Python with lower cases-CodePudding

My goal is to encode this dict with cyrilic text:

target_dict = {"Animal": "Cat", "city": "Москва"}

To this (cyrilic lettesrs with lower case encoded):

Animal=Cat&city=Москва

By default with python it encodes with UPPER CASE, this is my code:

import urllib.parse

target_dict = {"Animal": "Cat", "city": "Москва"}
encoded = urllib.parse.urlencode(target_dict)
print(encoded)

It returns city with UPPER CASE, i need only city in lower case:

Animal=Cat&city=Москва

I need to get city (cyriclic text) with lower case, these two results are actually the same, but service that I am trying to connect wants exactly lowercase.

CodePudding user response：

This code uses same library, but different method:

from urllib import parse


def url_encoded_cyrillic(target_dict):
    url_quote = set()
    result = parse.urlencode(target_dict)
    for value in target_dict.values():
       for char in value:
           encoded_char = parse.quote(char, safe='')
           if encoded_char != char:
               url_quote.add(encoded_char)
    for encoded_item in url_quote:
       result = result.replace(encoded_item, encoded_item.lower())
    return result


target_dict = {"Animal": "Cat", "city": "Москва :/- Москва", "car": "", "tOwn": "New York"}
print(url_encoded_cyrillic(target_dict))

it will return:

Animal=Cat&city=Москва :/- Москва&car=&tOwn=New York
