如何转移python对象以在JavaScript变量中使用？

Question

I'm using Bottle and Python 2.7.

I would like to pass a list variable from my Bottle's controller to the view page, where it will be used in a JavaScript variable.

@app.route('/foo'):
def foo():
    l = [{'name':'Matthew'}]
    return template('foo', l=l)

I've also done:

l = json.dumps([{'name':'Matthew'}]

In my view

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready({
        var l = {{l}}
        l.forEach(function(entry) {
            console.log(entry);
        });
    });
</script>

However my console says I have a syntax error. When I open the HTML, it is rendered like:

var l = [{"name": "Matthew"]

How can I transfer a python object for use in a JavaScript variable?

Answer 1

The substitutions between {{ and }} are HTML Entity encoded to prevent XSS amongst other things.

Try this:

var l = {{!l}};

Answer 2

Bottle (via, the SimpleTemplate engine) is escaping the output to prevent XSS vulnerability. This is good, generally. You can disable the escaping temporarily using ! like:

var l = {{!l}};

The docs for it are here
