This repository is used for managing Hack Club's DNS configuration through OctoDNS. Please see its documentation for more information.
Adding a subdomain
- Create a fork of this repository.
- In your fork open the hackclub.com.yaml file and add the following alphabetically based off the subdomain name:
SUBDOMAIN_NAME:
- ttl: 600
type: CNAME
value: SOURCE_DOMAIN_OR_IP.
- Replace
SUBDOMAIN_NAME
with the name of the sub-domain. So if the name washello
then the subdomain would behello.hackclub.com
. - Replace
SOURCE_DOMAIN_OR_IP
with the domain or IP address of the website you want the subdomain to go. If you are using an IP address changetype: CNAME
totype: A
. Remember to leave that.
at the end! - Commit your changes and create the PR!
That's it! Someone with contributor access to the repo will then review your PR.
If you're asked to make any changes to your pull request, please amend it by commiting to your fork, instead of closing it and creating another.
Google Workspace / Vercel Combination
If you're looking to use both Google Workspace and Vercel, deploying your changes may break. To fix this, follow these steps (each in a seperate step, irvine.hackclub.com
is an example of this process):
- Delete all records associated to your subdomain.
- Add the records needed for Google Workspace to your subdomain.
- Add the remaining records you'd like for your subdomain. Instead of a
CNAME
, useALIAS
.
Limitations
Subdomains, under domains following the format hackclub.xxx
(or other domains reffering to hackclub), are only available for clubs and projects related to Hack Club, this does not include HCB projects. Everyone is welcome to use dino.icu
!
When adding a site hosted on ▲ Vercel, you will need to verifiy the domain by adding a TXT record.
