Django template value in javascript

Question

I have passed a variable(list of dictionary) to template in django. I need that variable in java script. How can I get the variable as list without using json.dumps in django views.

If you have a dictionary in django say myObj, you may simply put this kind of dynamic javascript substitution to use that in javascript

<script type="text/javascript"> 
   var obj = "{{myObj}}"
</script>

Cheers!

But 'obj' is string right? I want it as array variable. Is there any option to convert?

you may later do JSON.parse(obj) to get the object equivalent to python's dictionary
