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: "Go to your favorite browser and search using your yourdomain.com."

A block of code is set as follows:

/usr/local/bin/php -f install.php -- \
--license_agreement_accepted "yes" \
--locale "en_US" \
--timezone "America/Los_Angeles" \
--default_currency "USD" \
--db_host "mysql.example.com" \

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

docker run --rm --name magento2 -it -p 80:80 --link mysql:mysql -e MYSQL_USER=root -e MYSQL_PASSWORD=admin -e PUBLIC_HOST=yourdomain.com raybogman/mage2cookbook-docker $*

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

service apache2 status
netstat –anp | grep apache2

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: "Check on the second like for the Server API; this should be FPM/FastCGI."

Note

Warnings or important notes appear in a box like this.
