can not use on ruby 2.2 due to json version dependeny

[thisissmithj]

versions < 1.8.2 of the json gem do not compile on ruby 2.2. See ruby/json#229

arista-eapi pins json to 1.7.7: https://github.com/imbriaco/arista-eapi/blob/master/arista-eapi.gemspec#L25

Is pinning it required? If not, could the pin be adjusted/removed?

This appears to be fixed by #2. Thanks! Could we get a new rubygem with the PR included?

Any update?

I'm not sure if the maintainer will merge the fix, but Arista has created a new ruby library for interacting with eAPI that you may find useful: https://github.com/arista-eosplus/rbeapi
