playframework JsValue in HTML Template

Question

I'm trying to define a json object in the template with the JsValue of play (v2.2.2). The problem is, " is converted to "

@(org: db.Tables.OrganizationRow)

@import models.format.EntityFormat._
@import play.api.libs.json.Json

<script  type="text/javascript">
    var org = @Json.toJson(org);
</script>

results in:

{"id":16,"userid":" ... more data ... };

How I'm able to get the correct json in the scala html template?

Answer 1

Define it as Html so it doesn't automatically get escaped.

var org = @Html(Json.stringify(Json.toJson(org)));
