How to install DNX Secret Manager in Mac OSX - macos

Question

I'm developing with ASP.NET5 on Mac OS X. I want to implement OAuth and use Secret Manager to store my secret configuration, so I'm following this DNXSecret Configuration page.
https://github.com/aspnet/Home/wiki/DNX-Secret-Configuration
But, after following the instructions, I couldn't successfully install user-secret command to my Mac, and I'm pretty much stuck.
As the first step, I installed DNVM and confirmed dnvm list command returns Mono as the runtime engine.
$ dnvm list
Active Version Runtime Arch Location Alias
------ ------- ------- ---- -------- -----
* 1.0.0-beta4 mono ~/.dnx/runtimes default
I also installed Yeoman, Grunt, Bower etc, and dnu restore command worked fine. I successfully showed a Yeoman scaffolded ASP.NET5 page both locally and on Azure.
Then I started to install Secret Manager, following the above page. In the beginning, the following command failed:
dnu commands install SecretManager
with the error below:
Errors in /Users/<username>/.dnx/bin/packages/SecretManager/1.0.0-beta4/app/project.json
Unable to locate SecretManager >= 1.0.0-beta4-10173
So, I modified the above 'project.json' file in its "dependencies" block as:
{
"version": "1.0.0-*",
"description": "ASP.NET 5 tool to manage user secrets.",
"dependencies": {
"SecretManager": "1.0.0-beta4" // <<- modified here
//"SecretManager": "1.0.0-beta4-10173"
},
"commands": {
"user-secret": "SecretManager"
},
"userSecretsId": "testuserSecretsId",
"frameworks": {
"dnx451": {},
"dnxcore50": {
"dependencies": {
"System.Console": "4.0.0-beta-*"
}
}
},
"entryPoint": "SecretManager",
"loadable": false
}
(before) "SecretManager": "1.0.0-beta4-10173"
(after) "SecretManager": "1.0.0-beta4"
Then the command finished successfully and SecretManager seems to be installed with the result below:
konishis-air:AspNetSocialLoginTest Ryuji$ dnu commands install SecretManager

The following commands were installed: .project.json, user-secret
However, when I run user-secret command, I get 'command not found'.

Sorry, that is a known issue and we've fixed in beta5.
You have two options:
Pass the fallback source: dnu commands install secretmanager 1.0.0-beta4 -f https://www.myget.org/F/aspnetrelease/api/v2
Update to the latest beta5 bits
