Registering a domain
This the the domain type by default.
To register a domain, simply use the domain
register-domain command:iovnscli tx starname register-domain --domain alpha --from benkeys --fees 200000uiov
Flag | Value |
--domain | the name of the domain you want to register |
--from | the star address of the owner of the domain |
--fees |
Optional Flag | Value |
--fee-payer | the star address of the payer of the transaction fee. By default, it is the --from address |
--type | open or closed. By default, closed |
You can check that your starname has been properly registered to you by resolving it
iovnscli query starname resolve --starname *alpha
You may also query your domain with
domain-infoiovnscli query starname domain-info --domain alpha
you will see something like
{
"domain": {
"name": "alpha",
"admin": "star10lalxx8ml63hs86j64nk76kucf72dsucluexz8",
"valid_until": 1592500822,
"type": "closed",
"broker": ""
}
}
Field | Description |
name | the domain name of the starname |
admin | the star address of the owner of the domain |
valid_until | the expiry date of the domain, in seconds from 1jan1970 |
type | open or closed |
broker | the reference of the broker of the registration of the starname |
The valid format for domain name can be checked with the
configuration get-config commandiovnscli query configuration get-config
{
"configuration": {
"valid_domain_name": "^[-a-z0-9]{4,32}$"
}
}
The
register-domain transaction cost depends on the length of the domain you want to register. You can see all the transaction cost parameters in iovnscli query configuration get-fees | jq
where you will the the domain registration parameters:
"fees": {
"fee_coin_denom": "uiov",
"fee_coin_price": "0.000000100000000000",
"register_domain_1": "1000.000000000000000000",
"register_domain_2": "500.000000000000000000",
"register_domain_3": "200.000000000000000000",
"register_domain_4": "100.000000000000000000",
"register_domain_5": "50.000000000000000000",
"register_domain_default": "7.000000000000000000",
"register_open_domain_multiplier": "3.000000000000000000",
}
This means that to register a closed domain of length
<n>, you look at the field register_domain_<n>. The price in token is then calculated by the formulaprice = register_domain_<n> * 1000000 / fee_coin_priceFor exemple, a domain registration price of a domain of size 3 when the fee_coin_price is 0.0000001 (Eur per uIOV) is 200 * 1000000 / 0.0000001 = 2000 IOV token.
If the domain size is 6 or more, then the parameter to use is
register_domain_default.This is dynamically updated as the
fee_coin_price will be updated to reflect the market value of the IOV token. The intent is to keep the price of the domain registration stable vs a stable currency.The registration price of an open domain is the registration price of a closed domain multiplied by
register_open_domain_multiplier.In addition of the registration price, the usual transaction gas fees need to be applied.
