You can use Apache Commons Lang 3.x StringEscapeUtils#escapeEcmaScript() method for this in EL.
First create a /WEB-INF/functions.taglib.xml which look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<facelet-taglib
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-facelettaglibrary_2_0.xsd"
version="2.0">
<namespace>http://example.com/functions</namespace>
<function>
<name>escapeJS</name>
<function-class>org.apache.commons.lang3.StringEscapeUtils</function-class>
<function-signature>java.lang.String escapeEcmaScript(java.lang.String)</function-signature>
</function>
</taglib>
Then register it in /WEB-INF/web.xml as follows:
<context-param>
<param-name>javax.faces.FACELETS_LIBRARIES</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/functions.taglib.xml</param-value>
</context-param>
Then you can use it as follows:
<html ... xmlns:func="http://example.com/functions">
...
<script>var foo = '#{func:escapeJS(bean.foo)}';</script>
...
<h:xxx ... onclick="foo('#{func:escapeJS(bean.foo)}')" />
Alternatively, if you happen to already use the JSF utility library OmniFaces, then you can also just use its builtin of:escapeJS() function:
<html ... xmlns:of="http://omnifaces.org/functions">
...
<script>var foo = '#{of:escapeJS(bean.foo)}';</script>
...
<h:xxx ... onclick="foo('#{of:escapeJS(bean.foo)}')" />
与恶龙缠斗过久,自身亦成为恶龙；凝视深渊过久,深渊将回以凝视…
