JQ to filter JSON by value

JQ to filter JSON by value

Syntax: cat <filename> | jq -c '.[] | select( .<key> | contains("<value>"))'

Example: To get json record having _id equal 611

cat my.json | jq -c '.[] | select( ._id | contains(611))'

Remember: if JSON value has no double quotes (eg. for numeric) to do not supply in filter i.e. in contains(611)

# Aside from removing Ruby on Rails specific code this is taken verbatim from
# mislav's git-deploy (http://github.com/mislav/git-deploy) and it's awesome

# Install this hook to a remote repository with a working tree, when you push
# to it, this hook will reset the head so the files are updated
