如何在 API 调用中显示嵌套的 object？

Question

I'm trying to display conversion rates from a foreign exchange rate API using ejs. Using scriplet tags in express is throwing me off.

The json returned is displayed below and I'm trying to display each conversion_rate key-value pair on my results.ejs page.

    result: 'success',
    documentation: 'https://www.exchangerate-api.com/docs',
    terms_of_use: 'https://www.exchangerate-api.com/terms',
    time_last_update_unix: 1606694407,
    time_last_update_utc: 'Mon, 30 Nov 2020 00:00:07 +0000',
    time_next_update_unix: 1606780927,
    time_next_update_utc: 'Tue, 01 Dec 2020 00:02:07 +0000',
    base_code: 'GBP',
    conversion_rates: {
      GBP: 1,
      AED: 4.9044,
      ARS: 108.037,
      AUD: 1.8075,

      ZAR: 20.3363
    }
  }

Here is my server.js route

app.get('/results', (req, res) => {
  const query = req.query.q;
  axios
    .get(`https://v6.exchangerate-api.com/v6/a66b8aae93f6e7abafe3aab5/latest/${query}`)
    .then(function (response) {
      const currencyPair = `Conversion Rates for ${query}`;
      console.log(response)
      res.render('results', {
        currencyPair,
        results: response.data,
      });
    })
});

And here is my current result.ejs page. It only displays [object Object] currently.

<h1><%= currencyPair %></h1>
<ul>
  <li>
    <div class="results">
      <div class="base">
        <span>Base Pair:</span>
        <span><%= results.base_code %></span>
      </div>
      <div class="conversionRate">
        <span>Conversion Rates:</span>
        <span><%= results.conversion_rates %></span>
      </div>
    </div>
  </li>
</ul>

In a ejs template you can only print strings, but you're trying to print an object. That's why you get the [object Object] .

To print an object, you just have to stringify it:

<%= JSON.stringify(results.conversion_rates) %>
