Using jq to talk with elasticsearch

I've recently found a new tool, quite useful, if you often talk to json services. It's named jq, please do not confuse it with jQuery. Eg. let's take Elasticsearch. I want to know which JVM it runs within. So I need to ask like this:
curl -XGET es1.grey:9200/_cluster/stats
so here's the output:
{"timestamp":1418913590962,"cluster_name":"gc-pb-grey","status":"green","indices":{"count":31,"shards":{"total":252,"primaries":126,"replication":1.0,"index":{"shards":{"min":4,"max":10,"avg":8.129032258064516},"primaries":{"min":2,"max":5,"avg":4.064516129032258},"replication":{"min":1.0,"max":1.0,"avg":1.0}}},"docs":{"count":162713289,"deleted":188051},"store":{"size":"44.2gb","size_in_bytes":47543046975,"throttle_time":"1.9d","throttle_time_in_millis":172301216},"fielddata":{"memory_size":"2.6gb","memory_size_in_bytes":2858909795,"evictions":0},"filter_cache":{"memory_size":"4.8gb","memory_size_in_bytes":5161692177,"evictions":504563},"id_cache":{"memory_size":"0b","memory_size_in_bytes":0},"completion":{"size":"0b","size_in_bytes":0},"segments":{"count":2000,"memory":"2.9gb","memory_in_bytes":3169080575}},"nodes":{"count":{"total":8,"master_only":0,"data_only":0,"master_data":8,"client":0},"versions":["0.90.12"],"os":{"available_processors":32,"mem":{"total":"188.7gb","total_in_bytes":202616012800},"cpu":[{"vendor":"AMD","model":"Opteron","mhz":2599,"total_cores":4,"total_sockets":4,"cores_per_socket":1,"cache_size":"512b","cache_size_in_bytes":512,"count":8}]},"process":{"cpu":{"percent":115},"open_file_descriptors":{"min":1356,"max":1537,"avg":1429}},"jvm":{"max_uptime":"8d","max_uptime_in_millis":693602733,"versions":[{"version":"1.6.0_30","vm_name":"OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM","vm_version":"23.25-b01","vm_vendor":"Sun Microsystems Inc.","count":8}],"mem":{"heap_used":"59.5gb","heap_used_in_bytes":63949850024,"heap_max":"127.7gb","heap_max_in_bytes":137160032256},"threads":621},"fs":{"total":"94.4gb","total_in_bytes":101461655552,"free":"48.9gb","free_in_bytes":52530081792,"available":"44.1gb","available_in_bytes":47376134144,"disk_reads":570224,"disk_writes":164405664,"disk_io_op":164975888,"disk_read_size":"16.1gb","disk_read_size_in_bytes":17347735552,"disk_write_size":"612.6gb","disk_write_size_in_bytes":657792794624,"disk_io_size":"628.7gb","disk_io_size_in_bytes":675140530176,"disk_queue":"0","disk_service_time":"0.9"},"plugins":[{"name":"bigdesk","description":"No description found for bigdesk.","url":"/_plugin/bigdesk/","jvm":false,"site":true},{"name":"hq","description":"No description found for hq.","url":"/_plugin/hq/","jvm":false,"site":true},{"name":"head","description":"No description found for head.","url":"/_plugin/head/","jvm":false,"site":true}]}}
Quite human unreadable. Let's try now with jq:
curl -XGET es1.grey:9200/_cluster/stats | jq "."
Seems more elegant now:

Ok, this does not changes much however, it's easy to get json formatted. But try this: curl -XGET es1.grey:9200/_cluster/stats | jq ".nodes.jvm" and we get:
{
  "threads": 619,
  "mem": {
    "heap_max_in_bytes": 137160032256,
    "heap_max": "127.7gb",
    "heap_used_in_bytes": 54125025648,
    "heap_used": "50.4gb"
  },
  "versions": [
    {
      "count": 8,
      "vm_vendor": "Sun Microsystems Inc.",
      "vm_version": "23.25-b01",
      "vm_name": "OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM",
      "version": "1.6.0_30"
    }
  ],
  "max_uptime_in_millis": 694408309,
  "max_uptime": "8d"
}
I took the outer object by first dot, 'nodes' property, and from inside it 'jvm' property. It is now trivial to get actual jvm version: curl -XGET es1.grey:9200/_cluster/stats | jq ".nodes.jvm.versions[0].version" Tadam:
"1.6.0_30"
