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: "Once we have the credentials, we should put them in vars/secrets.yml."

A block of code is set as follows:

- name: Create Custom Network
  gce_net:
    name: my-network
    mode: custom
    subnet_name: "public-subnet"
    subnet_region: us-west1
    ipv4_range: '10.0.0.0/24'
    state: "present"
    service_account_email: "{{ service_account_email }}"
    project_id: "{{ project_id }}"
    credentials_file: "{{ credentials_file }}"
  tags:
   - recipe1

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

$ pip install boto

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "After that, from the left sidebar, select IAM & Admin and then go to the Service Accounts section."
