python转utf8文件_如何在Python中将文件转换为utf-8？

I need to convert a bunch of files to utf-8 in Python, and I have trouble with the "converting the file" part.

I'd like to do the equivalent of:

iconv -t utf-8 $file > converted/$file # this is shell code

Thanks!

You can use the codecs module, like this:

import codecs

BLOCKSIZE = 1048576 # or some other, desired size in bytes

with codecs.open(sourceFileName, "r", "your-source-encoding") as sourceFile:

with codecs.open(targetFileName, "w", "utf-8") as targetFile:

while True:

contents = sourceFile.read(BLOCKSIZE)

if not contents:

break

targetFile.write(contents)

EDIT: added BLOCKSIZE parameter to control file chunk size.
