I want to set a JSON object in client side javascript using swig. I tried with json filter of swig but it just print JSON object not assign. <script type="text/javascript">
var bootstrap = "{{locals.bootstrap | json}}"</script> as we know in Javascript this bootstrap variable is globally accessible in whole the application. but I am not able to set JSON object. I tried this var bootstrap = "{{locals.bootstrap}}" refer link . but its for just any property not for json object, its just set "[object,object]" in bootstrap not json object. I tried with json filter of swig refered link , but not get succeed.

the mistake I was doing it to use "{{bootstrap | json | safe}}" in string format. now json is displaying fine but throw an exception unexpected token o. I cross checked my json object it is ok – Bharat Bhushan May 09 '15 at 14:50
