Conventions used

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

Code in text: Indicates code words in the text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "Now, we need to create a kubeconfig file for our local Kubectl CLI."

A block of code is set as follows:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: nginx-Pod

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

apiVersion: v1
kind: ReplicationController
metadata:
  name: nginx-replicationcontroller-example 

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

$ kubectl get nodes

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see on screen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "On this screen, you should see an Enable Billing button."
