``convert_encoding``
====================
.. versionadded:: 1.4
The ``convert_encoding`` filter was added in Twig 1.4.
The ``convert_encoding`` filter converts a string from one encoding to
another. The first argument is the expected output charset and the second one
is the input charset:
.. code-block:: jinja
{{ data|convert_encoding('UTF-8', 'iso-2022-jp') }}
.. note::
This filter relies on the `iconv`_ or `mbstring`_ extension, so one of
them must be installed. In case both are installed, `mbstring`_ is used by
default (Twig before 1.8.1 uses `iconv`_ by default).
Arguments
---------
* ``from``: The input charset
* ``to``: The output charset
.. _`iconv`: http://php.net/iconv
.. _`mbstring`: http://php.net/mbstring
