Import Error :cannot import name get_model

Question

File "C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\file_picker\forms.py,line 5 in <module>
from django.db.models import Q,get_model
ImportError:cannot import name get_model

I am using django 1.9.7 and file_picker 0.2.2 I don't seem to have any solution to this problem

It still didn't work I'm confused I'm trying to add widgets to the blog content for styling the admins input to be displayed on the blog site — Durodola Opemipo, Jul 29 '16 at 18:54

Try using django.apps instead:

from django.apps import apps

apps.get_model('Model')

Only apps.models('Model') works for me @ Django 3.0.5 – NegaOverflow May 21 '20 at 11:45

I had to use `apps.get_model('app_name', 'Model')` – sebtheiler Nov 18 '20 at 02:25

This answer is using `django.apps.apps.get_model` but providing link to `django.apps.AppConfig.get_model` which is quite confusing. Another important point is that `AppConfig.get_model` needs only one argument but [`apps.get_model`](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/ref/applications/#django.apps.apps.get_model) needs two. That being said, `apps.get_model('Model')` will not work. – haccks Mar 24 '21 at 18:34

Try this,

from django.apps import apps

model_obj = get_model('app_name', 'model_name')

Where "app_name" is your app name and "model_name" is your model name.
