cert-generator's Issues

Promise not fired

Just testing the library, but it seems like the generateRootCA never get's called.

The first time I run this script, it will generate poke-server.crt and poke-server.key as expected, but it will not then call generateClientCerts or log the Root CA generated... message.

If I call the script again, it will generate the client certs...

/*jshint esversion:6, node:true*/

const Generator = require('cert-generator');

let gen = new Generator({
    dir: './poke-certs',
    name: 'poke-server'
});

gen.isRootCAExists()
    .then((exists)=>{
        if(exists){
            return generateClientCerts();
        }

        return gen.generateRootCA()
            .then(()=>{
                console.log('Root CA generated...');
                return generateClientCerts();
            })
            .catch(console.error);
    })
    .catch(console.error);



function generateClientCerts(){
    console.log('Generating client certs...');
    return gen.getCertificate('client.poke.io')
        .then((out) => {
            console.log('cert', out.cert);
            console.log('key', out.key);
        })
