I am trying to convert the model instances into a JSON object and then according to the value selected in the dropdown menu, I want to assign its amount to the `line_one_unit_price` text field in the form.

Javascript code:

    {{ data|json_script:"hello-data" }}
    <script type="text/javascript">
        const data = JSON.parse(document.getElementById('hello-data').textContent);

        document.getElementById('id_line_one').onchange = function(event){
        let elementInData = data.find(() => item.pk == event.target.value);
        document.getElementById('id_line_one_unit_price').value = elementInData && elementInData.amount ? elementInData.amount : 0;
    };

    </script>

I guess, I am getting the error at `data.find` because `.find` is used on an array whereas the constant `data` is not an array? How do I convert that JSON object into an array? how do I assign the amount of the `title` selected in the forms to the `line_one_unit_price`?

When I click some title from the dropdown, I want the amount to be displayed in the `Unit Price`.

`views.py`:

    def add_invoice(request):
      form = InvoiceForm(request.POST or None)
      data = serializers.serialize("json", Inventory.objects.all())
      total_invoices = Invoice.objects.count()
      queryset = Invoice.objects.order_by('-invoice_date')[:6]

      if form.is_valid():
        form.save()
        messages.success(request, 'Successfully Saved')
        return redirect('/invoice/list_invoice')
      context = {
        "form": form,
        "title": "New Invoice",
        "total_invoices": total_invoices,
        "queryset": queryset,
        "data": data,
      }
      return render(request, "entry.html", context)

`models.py`:

    class Inventory(models.Model):
      product_number = models.IntegerField(primary_key=True)
      product = models.TextField(max_length=3000, default='', blank=True, null=True)
      title = models.CharField('Title', max_length=120, default='', blank=True, unique=True)
      amount = models.IntegerField('Unit Price', default=0, blank=True, null=True)

      def __str__(self):
        return self.title

Thanks.
