Description

pgi = ProcessGenInput.objects(id=pk).first()
pgi.to_json()
when I do like that I got extended json, it is no use, since I want to transfer json data to web page and use javascript to get data from it.
Could you help me to fix it? thank you

Research direction

Start at the ProcessGenInput.objects(...).first() and pgi.to_json() entry points mentioned in the report, then inspect how MongoEngine serializes MongoDB values into Extended JSON. Confirm the expected standard JSON format and verify that the resulting output can be consumed by JavaScript without Extended JSON wrappers.
