[Koha-devel] Embedding JSON data in HTML

[dcook at prosentient.com.au]

Hi all,

 

I was just reflecting on bugs like
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=26942 and
reviewing https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/script
when I saw the following method for embedding JSON in HTML:

 

<!-- Generated by the server -->

<script id="data" type="application/json">{"userId":1234,"userName":"John
Doe","memberSince":"2000-01-01T00:00:00.000Z"}</script>

 

<!-- Static -->

<script>

  const userInfo = JSON.parse(document.getElementById("data").text);

  console.log("User information: %o", userInfo);

</script>

 

I thought that was neat.
