createsuperuser command is not working properly

[MusharrafSakran]

I'm using the below versions:

python=3.7
django==2.2
django-tenant-schemas=1.10.0

When I try to apply this command as mentioned in the latest documentaion here: ./manage.py createsuperuser --username=admin --schema=customer1

the below error is shown:

usage: manage.py createsuperuser [-h] [--username USERNAME] [--noinput]
                                 [--database DATABASE] [--email EMAIL]
                                 [--version] [-v {0,1,2,3}]
                                 [--settings SETTINGS]
                                 [--pythonpath PYTHONPATH] [--traceback]
                                 [--no-color] [--force-color]
manage.py createsuperuser: error: unrecognized arguments: --schema=customer1

And the only way to run this command with my case is to write it as below: ./manage.py tenant_command createsuperuser --schema=customer1 or ./manage.py tenant_command -s=customer1 createsuperuser

And the prompt will ask for the username, email and password afterwards.

I beleive that we either have to update the documentation or fix the issue that is caused if the command in the documentation is right.

Thanks,

There is a similar symptom of this issue with this command from Django 2.2.9 also:

bash-4.2# python manage.py tenant_command loaddata data.json

usage: manage.py tenant_command [-h] [-s SCHEMA_NAME] [--version]
                                [-v {0,1,2,3}] [--settings SETTINGS]
                                [--pythonpath PYTHONPATH] [--traceback]
                                [--no-color] [--force-color]
                                command
manage.py tenant_command: error: unrecognized arguments: data.json

Other permutations of the same command gives similar results: python manage.py tenant_command loaddata -s SCHEMA_NAME data.json python manage.py tenant_command loaddata --schema=SCHEMA_NAME data.json python manage.py tenant_command -s SCHEMA_NAME loaddata data.json

Only workaround I found is to invoke call_command with the fixtures file argument directly from Django shell.

Try downgrading to version 1.9.0. The version 1.10 has some problems with how commands are invoked, probably related to #613.

python manage.py tenant_command createsuperuser --schema=schema_name

[faimaro]

python manage.py tenant_command createsuperuser --schema=schema_name

In my case, this was the perfect solution for this issue.
