I have an javaScript function in my Thymeleaf page which has an array of countries 

  var countries = ["Australia","Italy","France","Spain","India","China"];

But I want to pass that list of Countries from the controller method. So I passed an List of strings to the view via the model and accessed it in javaScript as follows,

Controller:

 List<String> list=new ArrayList<String>();
    list.add("Australia");
    list.add("Italy");
    list.add("France");
    list.add("Spain");
    list.add("India");
    list.add("China");

    model.addAttribute("list",list);

javaScript:

 var countries=[[${list}]];

But It doesn't work as expected.So please suggest a way to do this successfully

  • Shouldn't that be just normal array? var countries = list; incase if you are getting that from an API call it should be var countries = response.data – Yatin Gaikwad Mar 19 '20 at 07:16
