使用Django的JS的JSON：SyntaxError：missing：属性id之后

Question

I'm attempting to get a JSON file into a script. I can't seem to be able to get it there by serving it from the filesystem so I made a view that returns the JSON data to the page like so:

def graph(request, d):                  #d.data is the file in the database
    data = json.load(d.data)
    return render(request, 'temp/template.html', {'json': data})

In my JS:

var j = {{ json|safe }};

When I look at the source for the JS it shows the data in this format:

{u'people': [{u'name': u'steve'}, {u'name': u'dave'}]}

Which I read shouldn't be a problem. I don't have any variables called 'id' and yet I get the error in the title pointing to the provided line of JS.

Why could this be? Also how do I then use the objects from the JSON in my script?

Solved by using simplejson:

import simplejson as json

And everything else as above. This is because the built in json.dumps returns an array of unicode like:

{u'people': [{u'name': u'steve'}, {u'name': u'dave'}]}

When using simplejson that shouldn't be a problem.
