Eliminate garbled Japanese characters in JSON data acquired by API.

Problems that occurred

When I was practicing to acquire data with the youtube Data API, Japanese characters were garbled when I output the acquired data.

search.py

if __name__ == "__main__":
    try:
        response = youtube_search(
            q='official', part='snippet', type='video', max_count=1, order='date')

        CURRENT_DIR = os.getcwd()
        with codecs.open(CURRENT_DIR + '/' + 'data.json', 'w', encoding='utf-8') as f:
            f.write(json.dumps(response, indent=2))

        print(json.dumps(response, indent=2))

    except HttpError as e:
        print("An HTTP error %d occurred: \n%s" % (e.resp.status, e.content))

result.

How to solve

The option "ensure_ascii" of json.dumps () is True by default, that is, the setting to execute the process of automatically escaping when it contains ASCII characters is the default. Set this to False to prevent it from being escaped.

search.py

if __name__ == "__main__":
    try:
        response = youtube_search(
            q='official', part='snippet', type='video', max_count=1, order='date')

        CURRENT_DIR = os.getcwd()
        with codecs.open(CURRENT_DIR + '/' + 'data.json', 'w', encoding='utf-8') as f:
            f.write(json.dumps(response, indent=2, ensure_ascii=False))

        print(json.dumps(response, indent=2, ensure_ascii=False))

    except HttpError as e:
        print("An HTTP error %d occurred: \n%s" % (e.resp.status, e.content))

result.
