domains

your own domain name for your page or app

in the terminal: help domains

Got a domain of your own? Point it here and it shows your page, or your app, with https:

runv domain add example.com          shows ~/public_html
runv domain add example.com app      shows your app (help apps)

Then, at the place where you manage that domain's DNS, add two records:

example.com         A    173.212.219.80
_runv.example.com   TXT  you

The first sends visitors here, the second says the name is yours (put your runv username there). Leave out any AAAA record: runv.club takes these on IPv4 only. If the name already has other A records, remove them, it has to point only here.

DNS takes a few minutes to an hour to spread. Then:

runv domain check

Once the records are right, the certificate comes within a few minutes, and the server looks again every hour. runv domain shows how each name is doing and, while one is waiting, what's still missing.

Each name is added on its own: example.com and www.example.com are two. Up to 3 per member. For a subdomain like blog.example.com, a CNAME to runv.club works too, in place of the A record. Keep the TXT record.

Pages written for runv.club/~you/ work as they are: links to /~you/... keep working on your domain, and links to other members go to runv.club. Visits count in your analytics like any other page.

If the records stop pointing here, the domain stays up for 3 days, then goes back to waiting. When you remove it, or leave runv.club, it stops working here right away. Remember to clean up the records on your side.

runv domain rm example.com
