Let's say I have a JsValue.

val dbo = MongoDBObject("id" -> "0001", "name" -> "Kevin", "age" -> "100") 
val json: JsValue = Json.parse(dbo.toString)

I tried to insert json via:

val obj = MongoDBObject("key" -> json)
collection.insert(obj)

However, there are many brackets [ and ] added to the json part when I do a db.collection.findOne() from the Mongo shell.

How can I properly add a JsValue into Mongo in Casbah?

Is it just the string representation of the jsValue thats being saved? – Ross Sep 18 '13 at 21:41
Yes. But I was able to save it by setting (in my example above) `json` equal to `com.mongodb.util.JSON.parse(Json.stringify(json)))` – Kevin Meredith Sep 19 '13 at 00:28
