I need to be able to pass data between a controller and a js file to be used within the js. What I've done as a hack is to have the controller pass the data to the view, where the view outputs the value to an empty span tag with the data as an attribute, where the js can then target that span tag and retrieve the data.....but there has to be a better way?

Hello John Wiltshire,

You can give a class for your span tag and add data id using qweb in xml
xml code:


then in js give any click event for that class
js code:
events: {
"click .your_class": "your_function",
},
your_function: function () {
console.log('Clicked Class');
//Here you give a data id for span tag
}
