Radu Cotescu commented on SLING-11538:
--------------------------------------
[~kwin], what's the use case? The [test you
added|https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-scripting-sightly-testing-content/pull/7/files#diff-05f462b0429b9368cac540b6f079b6e8fb3e3f85b828a8be2e95dde9b8cc8e2c]
doesn't help me understand it. Why can't you output JSON using a specialised
JSON library?

> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: HTL
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus

> It would be useful to add an output context to HTL to be used inside JSON. As
> JSON is very complex, the most essential one which currently cannot be
> achieved with any other existing contexts is escaping for a JSON String value
> (compare with https://github.com/adobe/htl-spec/issues/5).
> I propose to introduce a new context {{jsonString}} next to {{scriptString}}
> in
> https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-scripting-sightly/blob/192d953514e6e579428cda157a7e83fc2a05cc01/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/scripting/sightly/impl/engine/extension/XSSRuntimeExtension.java#L93.
> As it is not part of the official HTL spec at
> https://github.com/adobe/htl-spec/blob/master/SPECIFICATION.md#121-display-context
> it needs to be listed as Sling-specific addition in
> https://sling.apache.org/documentation/bundles/scripting/scripting-htl.html#extensions-of-the-htl-specification.
