💅 exo(1) — the exo manual page, but make it make sense

okay so bestie, you're reading the manual page for exo, and the specific vibe here is the exo-dns-add-POOL command. it lives in section 1 of the manual, and honestly? it's giving "niche but iconic." let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

exo-dns-add-POOL — literally just: Add POOL record type to a domain. that's the whole job. she's focused, she's employed 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

exo dns add POOL DOMAIN-NAME|ID [flags]

so you run exo dns add POOL, you give her a domain name or an ID (either one works, the | is the "pick your fighter" bar), and then whatever flags you need. that's it, that's the whole invocation 🦋

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so what does this actually do. it adds a "POOL" record — and that's a record that aliases a subdomain to another host as part of a pool of available CNAME records. no cap, that's the whole thing.

the tea here is that "POOL" is a DNSimple custom record type — it's not some standard vanilla DNS thing, it's a special little guy 💖

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -a, --alias="" — the alias! this is the actual "Alias for:" value you're pointing at. example given in the manual is 'some-other-site.com' 🫶
• -h, --help[=false] — help for POOL. classic. shows you the help and dips ✨
• -n, --name="" — the name. and yes, you may use the * wildcard here — go wild (literally) ⭐
• -t, --ttl=3600 — the time in seconds to live (aka the refresh rate) of the record. default is 3600 seconds, so she's chilling for an hour by default 🔥

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

• -C, --config="" — specify an alternate config file. also reads [env EXOSCALE_CONFIG] 💜
• -O, --output-format="" — output format, and your choices are table|json|text. for more info, go see "exo output --help" 🧚
• --output-template="" — the template to use if your output format is "text" 🎀
• -Q, --quiet[=false] — quiet mode. disables non-essential command output, for when you want her to stop yapping 🤫
