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)

# Use sed on the instance up to replace the INSTANCE_ID and DNS_RESOLVER with the following commands
#
####################################################################################################
# Fetch the private IP for resolving DNS dynamically in nginx
# We also need to escape the `.` from it for usage in later sed
#
# DNS_RESOLVER=`grep nameserver /etc/resolv.conf | cut -d " " -f2 | sed 's/\./\\./g'`
