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 sayHello
resource will simply send a Hello, World!
response back to the caller."
A block of code is set as follows:
import ballerina/http; service /hello on new http:Listener(9090) { resource function get sayHello(http:Caller caller, http:Request req) returns error? { check caller->respond("Hello, World!"); } }
When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:
[dependencies] "dhanushka/invoice_util" = "0.1.0"
Any command-line input or output is written as follows:
kubectl apply –f target/kubernetes/code_to_cloud
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: "Then, you can log in to the Ballerina Central dashboard and see your package listed under the My Packages section."
