I am trying to get data put on a leaflet map that I have set up. I am following this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDfkjx-VhLI
I have all of the html, css and js scripts up and running, and I have entered my geojson .js file the same way as in the video. It is not showing up, and I think it is because my geojson looks like this:
var data = {"features": [{"geometry": {"coordinates": [51.05632117022859, -114.0952643473764], "type": "Point"}, "properties": {"address": "429 14 ST, CALGARY, AB", "complaint": "Back alley.

At about the 1:20 mark in the video, I see that the tutorial maker's data has "type": "FeatureCollection" at the front of the data, and in mine, it is at the very end. I need a way to automatically translate some real-time data into geojson, and so I am using a script like this:
feature_collection = FeatureCollection(feature_list)
#print(feature_collection)
print(geojson.dumps(feature_collection))
f = open("F:\calgary311\data.js", "w")
f.write("var data = ")
f.write(geojson.dumps(feature_collection, sort_keys=True))
f.write(";")
f.close()
Is there a way to specify the geojson.dumps() method to put the "type": "FeatureCollection" at the beginning instead of at the end? Would this even matter?
