How can I extract tuple array use Json4s?

Question

I use Josn4s to parse json in scala, when I parse tes, will throw some exception, the code is below:

implicit val formats = DefaultFormats
val pos = Array[(Int, Int)]((1,3),(2,4))
val tes = compact(render("pos" -> Extraction.decompose(pos)))
val dec = (parse(tes) \ "pos").extract[(Int, Int)]

and the exception is below:

Exception in thread "main" org.json4s.package$MappingException: No usable value for _1
Did not find value which can be converted into int

You may try this:

import org.json4s._
import org.json4s.jackson.Serialization.write
import org.json4s.jackson.JsonMethods._
implicit val formats = DefaultFormats
val json = write(pos.toMap.map { case (k,v) => (k.toString -> v) })
val arrayTuple2 = parse(json).values.asInstanceOf[Map[Int,Int]].toArray
