pip install django-ensuresuperuser

INSTALLED_APPS = [
# ...
'django_ensuresuperuser',
]
Usage
Assuming all variables are set, run the management command:
python manage.py ensuresuperuser
Configuration
The command requires the following environment variables to be set:
DJANGO_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD: The password for the superuser.DJANGO_SUPERUSER_EMAIL(optional): The email for the superuser. Defaults toadmin@example.com.
The superuser will be created with the username admin.
If a user with the username admin already exists, the command will do nothing.
