Redis Redis returns number in Scientific notation after cjson.decode lua processing

I store json in Redis, and process it with help lua scripts. I detect, that redis returns big numbers in Scientific notation, if I process json with cjson.decode. Let's consider the following 1.lua script:

local b =  cjson.decode('{"v": 15947634569000323}');
return cjson.encode(b);

Try to execute it:

root@4e112ee51633:/data# redis-cli --eval 1.lua
"{\"v\":1.5947634569e+16}"

So, we receive 1.5947634569e+16 instead of 15947634569000323. I bet. not every programming language can seamlessly process both number representation. It is important, for small numbers, Redis returns number in Decimal notation:

1.lua:

local b =  cjson.decode('{"v": 1594763}');
return cjson.encode(b);

root@4e112ee51633:/data# redis-cli --eval 1.lua
"{\"v\":1594763}"

It would be nice to get number always in Decimal notation.
