@TomaszJakubRup I'm talking about superuser, not usual user. – Expressive

@Rube I'm looking for solution, which uses fixtures, not manual input – Expressive

@Expressive A superuser is a normal user with the is_superuser flag set. – Unbowed

solution 1

On empty database:

python manage.py createsuperuser
python manage.py dumpdata auth.User --indent 4 > users.json

and in users.json You have needed fixtures.

solution 2

./manage.py shell

>>> from django.contrib.auth.hashers import make_password
>>> make_password('test')
'pbkdf2_sha256$10000$vkRy7QauoLLj$ry+3xm3YX+YrSXbri8s3EcXDIrx5ceM+xQjtpLdw2oE='

and create fixtures file:

[
    { "model": "auth.user",
        "pk": 1,
        "fields": {
            "username": "admin",
            "password": "pbkdf2_sha256$10000$vkRy7QauoLLj$ry+3xm3YX+YrSXbri8s3EcXDIrx5ceM+xQjtpLdw2oE="
            "is_superuser": true,
            "is_staff": true,
            "is_active": true
        }
    }
]

Answer 2

If you are using pytest-django you can use the existing fixture admin_user.

From RTD:

An instance of a superuser, with username “admin” and password “password” (in case there is no “admin” user yet).
