What is a more succinct way of converting python boolean to javascript boolean literals?

Question

I want to convert a python boolean into JS's boolean literal. This is what I am working with:

store = dict(vat=True)

if store['vat']:
    store.update({'vat': 'true'})
else:
    store.update({'vat': 'false'})

Is there a more less verbose way to replace this code snippet ?

Answer 1

>>> store['vat'] = json.dumps(store['vat'])
>>> store
{'vat': 'true'}

Answer 2

In JS a positive integer value is effectively true, and 0 (zero) is false.

You may try passing 0 as a JS false, and 1 as a JS true (do not use negative values)

>1 == true
true
>0 == true
false
>0 == false
true
>1 == false
false
