从Twig获取JSON数组数据

I need to pass an array passed in Twig as a parameter for a javascript object.

        $app->render("site/home.twig.html", array(
        "page" => "home",
        "trans" => $translationfile
    ));

$translationfile is a value generated from json_decode'ing a JSON file containing translation values.

When I attempt to access the part of the file I want to access;

var translations = "{{ trans.production }}";

I get "Array" as an answer.

I assume there's a way to obtain the array? Do I need to encode it?
