In order to point a custom domain at an app running on Dokku, you should use the built-in domains command. After creating a DNS record pointing the domain to the IP address running Dokku as you normally would, you can add that domain to the application by running:
dokku domains:add app-name www.example.com
Behind the scenes, this is simply configure Nginx to route the requests which will work with multiple domains as well.
