Can not support django Internationalized domain name in URLValidation

[Ramin Farajpour Cami]

Hi,

i see here ​validator.py, there isn't docs aboud ​IDN supported django IDN or no,

there is arabic domains on internet like ​عربي.امارات

from django.core.validators import URLValidator
validate = URLValidator()

validate('http://عربی.امارات')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\django\core\validators.py", line 114, in __call__
    value = force_text(value)
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\django\utils\encoding.py", line 88, in force_text
    raise DjangoUnicodeDecodeError(s, *e.args)
django.utils.encoding.DjangoUnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0x9f in position 12: invalid start byte. You passed in 'http://\xe3\xa9\xa0?.\x9f\xea\x9f\xa9\x9f\xa2' (<type 'str'>)

You can use idn2 tool.

root@ramin ~ > idn2 'عربي.امارات'
xn--ngbrx4e.xn--mgbaam7a8h
root@ramin > nslookup $(idn2 'عربي.امارات')

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:   xn--ngbrx4e.xn--mgbaam7a8h
Address: 79.98.120.105

root@ramin > nmap $(idn2 'عربي.امارات') -p80
