Convert a hash of objects to json in Ruby

Question

I have a hash H which should contain various users as json. "users" list contains all users and every user object contains various user's details like name, age etc. I don't want to iterate over every user in the list and do user.as_json and then merge into the hash.

Is there a single line query which does this?

is this an action response?, with something maybe like a `@users` variable ? — Mohammad AbuShady, Apr 03 '15 at 09:35

You can do this, in your action convert it to JSON by using to_json

@users = users.to_json

In the Javascript code, parse it using jQuery's $.parseJSON()

$.parseJSON(@users)
