Question

I want to create a helper screen that can create a bunch of Django auth users on my site and have those accounts setup the same exact way as if they were done one by one through the Django auth GUI signup. What methods from Django auth would I have to use in my view to accomplish this?

Answer 1

To create users you can use the method create_user from the UserManager:

from django.contrib.auth.models import User

new_user = User.objects.create_user('username', 'email', 'password')

Then you can set is as staff new_user.is_staff = True or add permissions new_user.permissions.add(permission).
