带有JavaScript中带有重音符号键的对象的奇怪行为

Question

For a project, I am running a NodeJS app using Express. I wanted to organize my code and put some objects in a module I am calling with a require.

Something like var xlsImport = require(path.join(__dirname, '../config/xlsImport.js'))(mongoose, mongooseAppUsers, mongooseNodeJS_Test);

My module looks like :

    module.exports = function (mongoose,mongooseAppUsers,mongooseNodeJS_Test) {
    var module={};
(...)
    module.convertField = {
(...)
        "Jeu":                     "game",
        "Démo":                    "demo",
(...)
    return module;
};

In the main file,

xlsImport.convertField['Jeu'] is "game"
xlsImport.convertField['Démo'] is undefined

In the module, both are OK !

I suspect a copy mechanism to be involved...

Any suggestion for solving that problem ? (and some hints about the why ?)

Answer 1

I got it !

It all comes form my editor... When I moved my code from the main file to another newly created, the file encoding was different (windows-1252 instead of UTF-8 -I don't know why-). The accented characters were not the same depending on when they were written.

No strange javascript behavior...

I hope this could help somebody else in the future...
