Print valid, non-escaped JSON in a view with Rails

Question

I\'ve tried everything. Every combination of the helpers raw, html_safe to_json including some attempts with ::JSON.encode

Answer 1

Did you try escape_javascript?

Here is an example from the *.haml file, which I just added to test my answer.

:javascript
  var foo=$.parseJSON("#{j @albums.to_json}")

Where j is an short alias for escape_javascript.
