I have the following ListView
import json class CountryListView(ListView): model = Country def render_to_response(self, context, **response_kwargs)
class CountryListView(ListView): model = Country def render_to_response(self, context, **response_kwargs): return HttpResponse(json.dumps(list(self.get_queryset().values_list('code', flat=True))),mimetype="application/json")
fixed the problem
also mimetype is important.
