RE: Wildcarding json keys in json query

I guess you could try something like this

SELECT * FROM ( SELECT * from json_each(( '{
"ports" : {
"port_abc":{"min": 5, "max": 7, "mean": 6},
"port_def":{"min": 5, "max": 9, "mean": 7},
"port_ghi":{"min": 6, "max": 10, "mean": 8}
}
}'::json->'ports'
))
) T
WHERE (value::json->>'mean')::float >= 7;

PG 11.5 on linux

Let's say I store a jsonb in a column called test_results that looks like this...

{
ports : {
port_abc:{min: 5, max: 7, mean: 6},
port_def:{min: 5, max: 9, mean: 7},
port_ghi:{min: 6, max: 10, mean: 8}
}
}

And I want to to get all the port names where the mean is >= 7.

This works...

select 1 from mytbl where cast(test_results#>'{ports,port_abc,mean}' as float) >= 7 ;

But I want all the ports that have mean >= 7.
Something akin to...

select 1 from mytbl where cast(test_results#>'{ports,*,mean}' as float) >= 7 ;

But the "*" doesn't work :-(

Any ideas ?
Thanks!
