Pass Craft field object to JavaScript function

Question

I need to pass an entire Craft object into a JavaScript function. I followed the instructions in this post, however this only covers passing in a string.

{% includeJsFile "/js/homepage.js" %}
{% set myJs %}
   playlistData('{{myObject}}');
{% endset %}   
{% includeJs myJs %}

Any ideas?

You have to break it up into individual values before you can pass it through to JS...

{% includeJsFile "/js/homepage.js" %}
{% set myJs %}
   playlistData({
      field1: '{{ myObject.field1 }}',
      field2: '{{ myObject.field2 }}',
      field3: '{{ myObject.field3 }}'
   });
{% endset %}   
{% includeJs myJs %}
