Kevin Liew updated PHOENIX-2324:
--------------------------------
Description:
JSON specifies a 'number' data type which does not differentiate between
integer and floating-point values. Libraries such as RapidJSON can treat all
non-integer values as 'double' while still being compliant with JSON
specifications. As a result, decimal values sent by Phoenix will lose
precision on the client side.
Decimal data should be sent as a string to adhere with JSON specifications. If
it is sent as a number, it cannot be expected that any JSON-spec compliant
library will handle it properly.
This also affects float type data
