Hello,

When i do:

JSON.parse("true") # => JSON::ParserError: 784: unexpected token at 'true'
true.to_json # => "true"

The "true" or even "false" are valid according to the JSON standard (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7159):

WDYT about this ?

Cheers,

Sébastien

It's just because your copy of json gem is too old.

[1] pry(main)> require 'json'
=> true
[2] pry(main)> JSON::VERSION
=> "2.1.0"
[3] pry(main)> JSON.parse("true")
=> true
[4] pry(main)>
