In this book, you will find a number of text styles that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles and an explanation of their meaning. Code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles are shown as follows: "The harden.yml performs hardening of MySQL server configuration" A block of code is set as follows:
- name: deletes anonymous mysql user
mysql_user:
user: ""
state: absent
login_password: "{{ mysql_root_password }}"
login_user: root
When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:
- name: deletes anonymous mysql user
mysql_user:
user: ""
state: absent
login_password: "{{ mysql_root_password }}"
login_user: root
Any command-line input or output is written as follows:
ansible-playbook -i inventory playbook.yml
New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, for example, in menus or dialog boxes, appear in the text like this: "Click on Confirm Security Exception and continue to proceed with the installation steps"
