The MySQL driver DBD::mysql does not decode JSON values as utf8 although MySQL uses utf8mb4 for all JSON strings. This change decodes JSON values as utf8 (when not already done) such that SQL statements are generated correctly.
Percona Toolkit
Percona Toolkit is a collection of advanced command-line tools used by Percona support staff to perform a variety of MySQL and system tasks that are too difficult or complex to perform manually.
These tools are ideal alternatives to private or "one-off" scripts because they are professionally developed, formally tested, and fully documented. They are also fully self-contained, so installation is quick and easy and no libraries are installed.
Percona Toolkit is developed and supported by Percona Inc. For more information and other free, open-source software developed by Percona, visit http://www.percona.com/software/.
Installing
To install all tools, run:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
You probably need to be root to make install. On most systems, the tools
are installed in /usr/local/bin. See the INSTALL file for more information.
Documentation
Run man percona-toolkit to see a list of installed tools, then man tool
to read the embedded documentation for a specific tool. You can also read
