Docker 'token-generate root m' : command not found

What happened?

Hello to all My name is Thierry and I started today the implementation of reposilite to manage a team maven repository. So I’m new with reposilite. I installed the 3.0.0-alpha.16 version with docker and I started it as a daemon without any problem. Now, I’m trying to generate the authorization tokens : I connect in my container with the usual way (docker exec -it -u root reposilite /bin/bash) and then I run the command token-generate root m as indicated in the documentation but the command token-generate is not found.

Has anyone encountered this bug before? Is it related to the fact that this is an alpha version?

Thanks for your help Thierry

Reposilite version

To be complete for those who would encounter this kind of problem:

• start the docker container in interactive mode (example: docker run -it --name reposilite -v reposilite-data:/app/data -p 8080:80 docker.io/dzikoysk/reposilite:3.0.0-alpha.16)
• launch the creation of the token for the root user token-generate root m and copy the token
• stop the container with CTRL+C
• start the container as a daemon: docker start reposilite
• access the web console and login with the token as root
• you’re done! 😃

And if you have other tokens to create, you don’t need to redo the whole process above, you can create them in the CONSOLE tab of the web interface

Thanks again @dzikoysk

No, permanent token can be only generated using token-generate command. Flag can only bootstrap temporary management token to provide a way to create first user in environments that do not provide interactive console, but in general, the rest of setup should be provided in the dashboard console where you cam e.g. assign given routes to your tokens.
