designate command line tool - examples

Using the client against your dev environment

Typically the designate client talks to Keystone (or a Keystone like service) via the OS_AUTH_URL setting & retrives the designate endpoint from the returned service catalog. Using --os-endpoint or OS_ENDPOINT you can specify the end point directly, this is useful if you want to point the client at a test environment that's running without a full Keystone service.

$ designate --os-endpoint http://127.0.0.1:9001/v1 server-create --name ns.foo.com.
