Data Schema with characters incompatible with ascii

[Civity-NL]

Overview

The Data Schema JSON will throw an error if it includes characters not compatible with ascii.
This happens due to the use of Swedish characters like "Ö" and "Ä".

This is the line of code where it happens. I made a quick workaround by replacing it with:

descriptor = json.loads(value.encode('utf-8'))

Just wanted to get some feedback on how to approach this, if there should be somewhere an option to declare the encoding of the file? Or you want a PR with this work around?

I am also facing a similar issue that ckanext-validation is stripping french accents from the header names. We previously implemented a fix in xloader here: loader.py, but it seems that ckanext-validation does not go through the load_csv() function of xloader where the unidecode option can be checked.

Can you please advise where in ckanext-validation such a check can be made to preserve accents in the headers? Thanks!
