Why my MySQL DB can store Arabic characters correctly with latin1 encoding? -


test select:

mysql [chuangwai]> select ar_detail items limit 1\g; *************************** 1. row *************************** ar_detail: {"طراز": "فساتين قفطان", "المواد": "الشيفون"}

and can see arabic characters displayed correctly.

then check encoding:

mysql [chuangwai]> select * information_schema.schemata\g; *************************** 2. row ***************************               catalog_name: def                schema_name: chuangwai default_character_set_name: latin1     default_collation_name: latin1_swedish_ci                   sql_path: null

in so post, balusc said:

if you're trying store non-latin characters chinese, japanese, hebrew, cyrillic, etc using latin1 encoding, end mojibake.

as see, not case. please give me explanation why can store arabic characters latin1 encoding? necessary switch encoding of our db latin1 uft8?

edit: okay, found encoding of items uft8...

mysql [chuangwai]> select table_collation     -> information_schema.tables     -> table_name = 'items'; +-----------------+ | table_collation | +-----------------+ | utf8_unicode_ci | +-----------------+

most explanation table utf8, if schema ascii. try

select table_collation information_schema.tables  table_name = 'items';

in case, utf8 table gives me: utf8_general_ci. might see utf8mb4_general_ci instead (that's better utf8_general_ci variety of reasons)

now, question "is necessary switch encodings?" answer "technically, no, idea." long include encoding in table definitions, won't need worry schema encoding. still, better switch encoding don't need worry accidentally munging data later.

Add a dynamic header in angular 2 http provider -

i have http interceptor built via tutorial https://scotch.io/@kashyapmukkamala/using-http-interceptor-with-angular2 the problem need have dynamic header changes automatically once changes 'mode' in app. service able tell interceptor change header, or have interceptor pull header (which string)from service each request. able throwing away patch method, call http.patch('new header string') set header string. call in service controls 'mode' setting. wondering if there way interceptor pull recent value service each request or if can add method http provider via interceptor? i've tried call service in interceptor each request returns undefined. because creating new instance of service or copying value before service fired , loaded/changed data. i don't want pass header string every http provider call because defeats purpose of having interceptor, id able set once changes or have provider fetch service before makes request. tl;dr : need add autom...
