Typo3 Fluid: use TS-settings in configuration-tag

Question

I've got the paginationwidget

   <f:widget.paginate objects="{jobs}" as="paginatedJobs" configuration="{itemsPerPage: 4, insertAbove: 1, insertBelow: 1, addQueryStringMethod :{querystring : querystring}}">

And i want to insert the value of itemsPerPage via TypoScript, so i tried

{itemsPerPage: {settings.itemsPerPage}, insert....}

The Result is an Error: The argument "configuration" was registered with type "array", but is of type "string" in view helper...

The same when i try to us it in the alias-Tag

<f:alias map="{number: {settings.itemsPerPage}}">

Is there a possibility to get it working? I need this value in my Controller so it should be the same in the template...

Here the answer made from my comment, because it seems to work :)

At least for the <f:alias> it should work with <f:alias map="{number: settings.itemsPerPage}">.

The widget config might work this way as well. Sskip the {...} around settings.itemsPerPage.
