I found solution at the DockerHub page:

// Setup your local admin account
$ docker exec -it superset superset fab create-admin \
              --username admin \
              --firstname Superset \
              --lastname Admin \
              --email admin@superset.com \
              --password admin

// Migrate local DB to latest
$ docker exec -it superset superset db upgrade

// Setup roles
$ docker exec -it superset superset init

P.S. Running apache/superset:1.5.0 image
