Hi

nette sets the charset to utf8mb4 using a query – SET NAMES 'utf8mb4. Is it possible to set the charset in the config file so I can get rid of this automatic query?

I tried this, but it didn't work
dsn: ‘mysql:host=127.0.0.1;dbname=test;charset=utf8mb4’

try add charset under options section

database:
	dsn: ....
	options:
		charset: utf8mb4

Hi,

adding the charset to options doesn't remove the SET NAMES query (on Ubuntu and XAMPP)

(sorry for my late reply, I was ill)
