Flask: show flash messages in alertbox

You can create JS variable containing messages
{% with messages = get_flashed_messages() %}
{% if messages %}
<script>
var messages = {{ messages | safe }};
for (var i=0; i<messages.length; i++) {
alert(messages[i]);
}
</script>
{% endif %}
{% endwith %}

I've been working on flask and I came across flash. It displays a message on page if flash was called on the server side. However, I'd like to display the contents get_flashed_messages() in an alertbox. I tried to make JS function and pass {{message}} but the loop prints the call i.e. takes the call as a string.
{% with messages = get_flashed_messages() %} {% if messages %} <ul class=flashes> {% for message in messages %} <li>{{ message }}</li> {% endfor %} </ul> {% endif %} {% endwith %}
IS there any way to go about it?
