hover --help

hover ls:domains
hover ls:cnames -d mydomain.com
hover ls:cname -d mydomain.com -c cname
hover add:cname -d mydomain.com -s sub.domain -t target.herokuspace.com 
hover update:cname -d mydomain.com -s sub.domain -t target2.herokuspace.com 
hover rm:cname -id dnsId  # get this from ls:cnames
hover add:txt -d <mydomain.com> -n <name> -v <value>
# removing txt records works fine with the existing rm:cname command:
hover rm:cname -id $(hover ls:cname -d mydomain.com -c FOO | jq -r '.id')


or with jq: 
hover  ls:domains | jq -r '.[].domain_name'
