-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
The `json_script` template filter is useful for bootstrapping server side
data into some client-side widgets or JS driven config.
However, in it's current state only a HTML id attribute is supported which
means that if you want to leverage low-JS libraries such as Stimulus, HTMX
or Alpine.js to 'listen' for the element you have to add an extra layer
for finding elements by an id.
Additionally, it makes it difficult to modify other HTML attributes such
as `nonce`.
While the type being JSON has an intentionally smaller use case than
external scripts it would still be very useful to be able to add other
attributes.
Example usage
{{ value|json_script:"hello-data"@"data-controller='my-controller'" }}
Would output
<script id="hello-data" type="application/json" data-controller='my-
controller'>{"hello": "world"}</script>
I'm not sure on the best separator for the attributes or if a string or
some other value would be better. It would also need to support non-id
usage.
