Installation about cncjs-kt-ext

[leoheck]

I am also looking at the help and I have some issues.

The -s, --secret parameter does not show a <value> field next to it like in -p, --port <port> parameter, for example. Is it right?

Also, some parameters like -c, --config <filename> show that the default is ~/.cncrc but also show (default: "") at the end of the string. Is it right?

➜  cncjs-kt-ext git:(master) node . --help

Also, the -s, --secret does not work

I figured out that I can use the CNCJS_SECRET environment variable. So now, I am receiving the following output:

Connection error. Unauthorized user: user.id=, user.name=cncjs-autolevel

How do I set these user.id and user.name?

[leoheck]

Alright, I was able to run it by adding my credentials directly on the id and name fields on generateAccessToken function.

Thank's guy !
Little precision : ID could be found in the ~/.cncrc file

@matthgyver Yeap that is right. I am fixing these things on my fork. I was not able to test it yet. I just know that it is running. If I can fix these command-line issues I will make a pull request here.
