[Feature Request]: add `--reverse-dns string` to `compute instance create`

Open huerlisi opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

What feature would you like to have in the cli?

The compute instance create command is missing an argument to set the reverse DNS domain. Such an argument is already available in compute instance update:

> exo compute instance update --help
This command updates an Instance .
[...]
Flags:
[...]
      --reverse-dns string     Reverse DNS Domain

Hey @huerlisi thanks for the request, we're considering it.

It sounds like a nice feature, but not very critical from my point of view. Is there a strong reason or a problem behind this idea or is it just for convenience(which is an OK reason :) )?

We discussed it internally. To us, this is a low priority feature, we may work on it when there is spare time. Hence there is no ETA.

If someone would like to see this implemented earlier, we will happily accept a pull request.

@sauterp

That's perfectly fine, thanks for the quick response.

I'm automating some VM setup and it's working as is, just two calls instead of one. And I believe it would be possible using terraform, so there's ready to use solutions available already:-)
