How to update JSON data type column in MySQL 5.7.10?

问题

I have started using MySQL 5.7.10 recently and I am liking the native JSON Data type a lot.

But I ran into a problem when it comes to updating a JSON type value.

Questions:

Below is the table format, here I want to add 1 more key in JSON data column for t1 table. Right now I have to fetch the value modify it and Update the table. So it involves an extra SELECT statement.

I can insert like this

INSERT INTO t1 values ('{"key2":"value2"}', 1);

mysql> select * from t1;
+--------------------+------+
| data               | id   |
+--------------------+------+
| {"key1": "value1"} |    1 |
| {"key2": "value2"} |    2 |
| {"key2": "value2"} |    1 |
+--------------------+------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)

mysql>Show create table t1;


+-------+-------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------+
| Table | Create Table                                                                                                       |
+-------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| t1    | CREATE TABLE `t1` (
  `data` json DEFAULT NULL,
  `id` int(11) DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 |
+-------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

Is there a work around for this?

Thanks @wchiquito for pointing me right direction. I solved the problem. Here is how I did it.

mysql> select * from t1;
+----------------------------------------+------+
| data                                   | id   |
+----------------------------------------+------+
| {"key1": "value1", "key2": "VALUE2"}   |    1 |
| {"key2": "VALUE2"}                     |    2 |
| {"key2": "VALUE2"}                     |    1 |
| {"a": "x", "b": "y", "key2": "VALUE2"} |    1 |
+----------------------------------------+------+
