django-json-example.py

import json

from .models import MyModel


def get_json(request):
    # Return JSON for filtered MyModel objects

    records = MyModel.objects.filter(myproperty=myvalue)

    json_res = []
    for record in records:
        json_obj = dict(
            myproperty = record.myproperty, 
        )
        json_res.append(json_obj)

    return HttpResponse(json.dumps(response), mimetype='application/json')
