scala - No Json serializer as JsObject found for type play.api.libs.json.JsObject

Question

I have the following code that works in a console app when referencing "org.reactivemongo" %% "play2-reactivemongo" % "0.10.5.0.akka23"

when I update the reference to "org.reactivemongo" % "play2-reactivemongo_2.11" % "0.11.0.play23-M3" I get:

No Json serializer as JsObject found for type play.api.libs.json.JsObject. Try to implement an implicit OWrites or OFormat for this type.

import org.joda.time.DateTime
import reactivemongo.bson.BSONObjectID
import play.modules.reactivemongo.json.BSONFormats._

case class GoogleToken
(
  id: Option[BSONObjectID],
  name: String,
  emailAddress: String,
  refreshToken: String,
  expires: DateTime
  )

object GoogleToken {

  import play.api.libs.json.Json

  // Generates Writes and Reads
  implicit val googleTokenFormat = Json.format[GoogleToken]
}

and then

val collection = db.collectionJSONCollection

val query = Json.obj()
val cursor = collection.find(query).
  cursor[GoogleToken](ReadPreference.nearest).
  collect[List]()

What am I doing wrong?

The final release of ReactiveMongo 0.11 has been published ("org.reactivemongo" %% "play2-reactivemongo" % "0.11.0.play23").

As indicated on the updated documentation, for the default BSON/JSON conversions, it's recommended to have: import play.modules.reactivemongo.json._, ImplicitBSONHandlers._.
