I want to bulk create about 2-300 users with Drush on a Drupal 8 site. I want each of them to receive a welcome email and be forced to set up their own passwords. This can be done trivially with the "Notify user of new account" option through the UI but I cannot seem to make it work with Drush 9.
I can run a script that reads from a CSV and creates the user, then gives them the needed roles, however, the only option I can find for notifying the users: '--notify' throws a notify-send command failed
error that appears to be related to Ubuntu notifications?
Is there some way to send a new account an email that I am missing?
[warning] notify-send command failed. Please install it as per http://coderstalk.blogspot.com/2010/02/how-to-install-notify-send-in-ubuntu.html.
