Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

Code in text: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: “You can start by setting up an alias for kubectl using the alias k=kubectl command, and then use the k get command.”

A block of code is set as follows:

apiVersion: v1

kind: Pod

metadata:

   name: melon-serviceaccount-pod

spec:

   serviceAccountName: melon-serviceaccount

   containers:

   - name: melonapp-svcaccount-container

     image: busybox

     command: ['sh', '-c','echo stay tuned!&& sleep 3600']

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

spec:

   serviceAccountName: melon-serviceaccount

   containers:

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

kubectl delete samelon-serviceaccount

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For instance, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in bold. Here is an example: “This command will return the node that is now shown as uncordoned.”
