If you‘re like me, and use Nginx instead of Apache, you could eventually face this problem: Create an htpasswd file (for htaccess "authentication").
To create your file, without installing Apache, just run:
$ printf "USER:$(openssl passwd -crypt PASSWORD)\n" >> .htpasswd
Replace USER and PASSWORD for your user and password :)
创建htpasswd文件在nginx (没有 apache)
