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: “The first is called ansible-core, and this contains the Ansible runtime code (such as the ansible-playbook command, which we'll see in use later), as well as some built-in functionality that is core to all playbooks and roles.”
A block of code is set as follows:
tasks: - name: Install/Update to the latest of Apache Web Server ansible.builtin.apt: name: apache2 state: latest
When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:
handlers: - name: Restart the Apache Web Server ansible.builtin.service: name: apache2 state: restarted
Any command-line input or output is written as follows:
$ python3 --version Python 3.10.6
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: “Select System info from the Administration panel.”
