Conventions

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 AbstractProductPlugin1 class does not have to be extended from another class for the plugin to work."

A block of code is set as follows:

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework: ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
    <type name="Magento\Catalog\Block\Product\AbstractProduct">
        <plugin name="foggyPlugin1" type="Foggyline\Plugged\Block\Catalog\Product\ AbstractProductPlugin1" disabled="false" sortOrder="100"/>
        <plugin name="foggyPlugin2" type="Foggyline\Plugged\Block\Catalog\Product\ AbstractProductPlugin2" disabled="false" sortOrder="200"/>
        <plugin name="foggyPlugin3" type="Foggyline\Plugged\Block\Catalog\Product\ AbstractProductPlugin3" disabled="false" sortOrder="300"/>
    </type>
</config>

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

php bin/magento setup:upgrade
