## Non-interactive setup
When you first run `evennia start` after having created the database, you will be asked
to interactively insert the superuser username, email and password. If you need to do
this in an automated faction (such as in an automated build flow), you can supply those
values as environment variables, `EVENNIA_SUPERUSER_USERNAME`, `EVENNIA_SUPERUSER_EMAIL` and
`EVENNIA_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD`. The email can be left out and will then be set to be the
empty string.
Use this to start Evennia (the envvars will be ignored on subsequent starts):
```
EVENNIA_SUPERUSER_USERNAME=Foo EVENNIA_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD=MygreatPwd evennia start
```
