Bug 196802 – [ews-build] Handle bug titles with unicode characters

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Tools / Tests

[Aakash Jain]

We should handle bug titles with unicode characters. Currently build fails with an exception for bugs with unicode characters in title.

e.g.: https://ews-build.webkit.org/#/builders/19/builds/460

exceptions.UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 22-24: ordinal not in range(128)
/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/twisted/internet/defer.py:1185 in _inlineCallbacks
1184            else:
1185                result = g.send(result)
1186        except StopIteration as e:
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/buildbot/process/buildstep.py:705 in run
704 
705            results = yield self.start()
706            if results is not None:
steps.py:351 in start
350 
351        bug_closed = self._is_bug_closed(bug_id)
352        if bug_closed == 1:
steps.py:331 in _is_bug_closed
330        bug_title = bug_json.get('summary')
331        self.addURL('Bug {} {}'.format(bug_id, bug_title), '{}show_bug.cgi?id={}'.format(BUG_SERVER_URL, bug_id))
332        if bug_json.get('status') in self.bug_closed_statuses:
exceptions.UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 22-24: ordinal not in range(128)

Would encoding as utf-8 make it work?

If using utf-8, it fails later on inside addURL().
