Conventions Used

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

CodeInText: 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: "With this method, kubectl securely connects to the API server with its own credentials and creates a proxy for the applications on the local system."

A block of code is set as follows:

{
  "apiVersion":"v1",
  "kind":"Namespace",
  "metadata":{
    "name":"packt-client”
  }
}

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

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/v1/namespaces/  \
--header "Content-Type:application/json" \

Activity: These are scenario-based activities that will let you practically apply what you've learned over the course of a complete section. They are typically in the context of a real-world problem or situation.
