Recently we have updated our application from Rails 4.1 to Rails 4.2. This created an incompatibility with our json tables on MySQL 5.7. We had to switch from mysql2 to mysql2_json adapter to fix that while we don't update to Rails 5. Basically this gem adds json features on Rails 4.2.
Adds support to mysql2_json adapter (https://github.com/saveriomiroddi/json_on_rails).
