when your node is running you already have a wallet with a default account that has no name (empty string). You can do

$ dogecoin-cli listaccounts

to see it (and its balance). You can get the address with

$ dogecoin-cli getaccountaddress ""

Sadly, everyone seems to think the info is obvious but it's not. I've been searching for a long time on how to use the cli, I found countless links to forums where someone asked the question and people answered "RTFM". Running dogecoin-cli --help shows the options but not the commands. I ended up looking for bitcon cli commands instead and so far, everything seems to work the same :

The wallet is created on first start currently and you can call new addresses from the wallet via dogecoin-cli getnewaddress

The account system will most likely be deprecated in further releases due to being deprecated from upstream.
