Hi list,
whats the best way to add new users and user groups in Geonode? Is there a
command to add a new user and user groups with the django-admin.py (like
django-admin.py createsuperuser --settings=geonode.settings) or should I
manage new users and groups by the use of the django admin site?

Thanks

Best option if the Django admin site if you have few users.

If you have lots of users then it is best to write a script to create
them, or write django fixtures:


https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/initial-data/#providing-initial-data-with-fixtures

To see how a user fixture looks like do:

python manage.py dumpdata auth.User --indent=4

[
    {
        "pk": 1,
        "model": "auth.user",
        "fields": {
            "username": "admin",
            "first_name": "",
            "last_name": "",
            "is_active": true,
            "is_superuser": true,
            "is_staff": true,
            "last_login": "2011-03-29 23:32:19",
            "groups": [],
            "user_permissions": [],
            "password": "sha1$6e0cf$2b4e93a9dc89d1197d6b6d636fb150b978b83bc2",
            "email": "",
            "date_joined": "2011-03-29 23:32:19"
        }
    }
]

Best option *is* the Django admin site. Sorry for the typo.
