This creates a user according to it's email, sets a role and creates a 24h valid one-time-login.
The link can be transmitted for easy setup of password and account settings.

drush user-create [username] --mail="[user@mail]" &&\
    drush user-add-role "[editor]" [username] &&\
    drush uli --uri="[https://example.com]" --name="[username]"

For adding a role to multiple users, use comma separated arguments:

drush user-add-role "[editor]" [username1,username2]
