Laravel, different output when passing variable from controller to js

Question

As you can see my code below, I have defined a $test variable in controller. The problem is, when I passing the variable to js, it became different result.

Controller

$test = "{name: 'John',color: 'olive',data: [5, 3, 4, 7, 2],stack: '2014',xAxis: 1}";

View

<script type="text/javascript">
  var test = {{$test}}; // result is {name: &#039;John&#039;,color: &#039;olive&#039;,data: [5, 3, 4, 7, 2],stack: &#039;2014&#039;,xAxis: 1};
</script>

Inspect

You should form array (or object) and pass json_encoded($formedObject) instead. — Tpojka

It's becouse of the nature of blade {{}}. It's removing some characters. Try using {!! $test !!}

In view

var test = {!! $test!!};

Double braces is escaping your characters.

The correct Laravel syntax to not escape is {!! $test !!}
