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: "Mount the downloaded WebStorm-10*.dmg disk image file as another disk in your system."

A block of code is set as follows:

@Provider
public class ColorParamConverterProvider   implements ParamConverterProvider {
  @Override
  public <T> ParamConverter<T> getConverter(Class<T> rawType,    Type genericType, Annotation[] annotations) {
    if (rawType.equals(Color.class)) {
        return (ParamConverter<T>) new ColorParamConverter();
    }
    return null;
  }
}

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

  global:
    auth: basic
    healthCheck: true
    ingress: false
    istio: false
    istioNamespace: mesh
    route: true
    traceSpec: "com.ibm.hybrid.cloud.sample.stocktrader.broker.      BrokerService=fine:*=info"
    jsonLogging: true
    disableLogFiles: false
    monitoring: true
    specifyCerts: false

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

kubectl create configmap app-port --from-literal port=9081

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see on screen. For instance, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in bold. Here is an example: "We've learned that there are some useful tools such as GraphiQL that can simplify testing."
