Filters and Operators

Filters are used to filter resources by name and tag values. Filters are specified using the following format:

--filter <key><operator><value>

Keys are the resource name or tag key. For tag keys just use the tag key as key. For resource names use the special @name key. Operators are used to specify the comparison operator. See the table below.

Operator	Description
=	Equals
!=	Not equal
~	Contains
!~	Does not contain
--	Does not exist
^	Starts with
!^	Does not start with
$	Ends with
!$	Does not end with

Note that -- operator is used to check if a tag does not exist and has no value associated with it. Please check examples below.
