datasette --root running in Docker doesn't reliably show the magic URL

I followed these steps:

docker run datasetteproject/datasette pip install datasette-upload-csvs

docker commit $(docker ps -lq) datasette-with-plugins

docker run -p 8001:8001 -v $(pwd):/mnt datasette-with-plugins datasette --root -p 8001 -h 0.0.0.0

Visited: http://127.0.0.1:8001/-/plugins

Visited: http://localhost:8001/-/upload-csvs

I may have missed a step?

Thank you.

When you run --root you need to follow the special link that gets output to the console:

% datasette --root
http://127.0.0.1:8001/-/auth-token?token=036d8055cc8000e9667f21c1dd08722a9358c066463873ad9566d23d88765c52
INFO:     Started server process [53934]
INFO:     Waiting for application startup.
INFO:     Application startup complete.

That /-/auth-token?... link is the one that sets the cookie and lets you in.

Awesome. Thank you @simonw.
