## Creating a User from the Command Line
A user's type can be:
- Read only (can access all data but not make new entries)
- Standard (default, can access and make/edit any type of entry)
- Staff (bypasses permissions, can access Database Admin area)
There are 2 ways you can create a user from the command line:
1. Passing user's password as an argument:
```shell
python manage.py createuser --username --password
```
This will create a user with the standard privileges.
2. Interactively setting user's password:
```shell
python manage.py createuser --username
```
You will then be prompted to enter and confirm a password.
- If you want to create a user with read only privileges, pass in the `read_only` value to the `group` arg:
```shell
python manage.py createuser --username --password --group read_only
```
- If you want to create a user with the highest level of permission, you can append the `--is-staff` argument:
```shell
python manage.py createuser --username --is-staff
```
- Another argument you can use with this command is `--email`
```shell
python manage.py createuser --username --email
```
- To get a list of supported commands:
```shell
python manage.py createuser --help
```
