In my index.ejs I have this code:

var current_user = <%= user %>

In my node I have

app.get(/, function(req, res){

    res.locals.user = req.user

    res.render(index)

})

However, on the page I obtain

var current_user = [object Object]

and if I write

var current_user = <%= JSON.stringify(user) %>

I obtain:

var current_user = {"__v":0,"_id":"50bc01938f164ee80b000001","agents":...

Is there a way to pass a JSON that will be JS readable?
