failed to list domains: %v

Error message

failed to list domains: %v

What it means

listDomains wraps a failure of the godo Domains.List call (pagination intentionally not implemented per the TODO). It fires when the DigitalOcean API errors while enumerating domains in the account, e.g. invalid token or network failure.
