I am using requests within python and getting a string output in the form:
{"a":1,"b":2,"c":3,"d":4,"e":5}
.
I am then using flask to return the output and trying to turn it into a table within my html template.
some_output = response.text
return render_template('the-template.html', some_output=some_output)
printing some_output gives : {"a":1,"b":2,"c":3,"d":4,"e":5}
within the template i am trying:
<html>
<body>
<table>
{% for key, value in some_output.items() %}
<tr>
<th> {{ key }} </th>
<td> {{ value }} </td>
</tr>
{% endfor %}
</table>
</body>
</html>
When i submit the page to get the output i get the following error message:
jinja2.exceptions.UndefinedError: 'str object' has no attribute 'items'
How can i convert this string object into a dictionary so i can turn the dictionary into an html table within the template??
