I created a small Java script that produces the user and password for Traefik in Docker Compose.  
My little program is a good replacement for htpasswd.  
I make the code available to the community so if anyone wants to improve it they can do it.  
I hope it is useful.

```auto
public class TraefikPassword {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws NoSuchAlgorithmException {
        System.out.println("Password production for Traefik in Docker Compose by Federico Galimberti");
        String userTraefik = "user";
        String passwordTraefik = "password";
        System.out.println(
                "traefik.http.middlewares.auth.basicauth.users: " +
                        userTraefik +
                        ":" +
                        Md5Crypt.md5Crypt(passwordTraefik.getBytes()).replace("$", "$$")
        );
    }
	
	// Output
	// traefik.http.middlewares.auth.basicauth.users: user:$$1$$ifRtujSw$$iFT0QyOjaz0waXQRsPgjj.
	
}

```

Good day
