from faker import Faker
fakegen = Faker()
topics = ['Search', 'Social', 'Marketplace', 'News', 'Games']

# call Topic Model
def add_topic():
    t = Topic.objects.get_or_create(top_name=random.choice(topics))[0]
    t.save()
    return t

# call rest of Models
def populate(N=5):

    for entry in range(N):

        # get the topic for the entry
        top = add_topic()

        # add fake data for each entry
        fake_url = fakegen.url()
        fake_name = fakegen.company()
        fake_date = fakegen.date()

        # fake entry for webpage model
        webpg = Webpage.objects.get_or_create(
            topics, url=fake_url, name=fake_name)[0]

        # fake entry for access record
        acc_rec = AccessRecord.objects.get_or_create(
            name=webpg, date=fake_date)[0]

    populate(20)
    print('Run Successfully.')

You are getting a ModuleNotFoundError because your script cannot import this:

from ten_project.ten_app.models import AccessRecord, Webpage, Topic

You should take a look at this: How to import the class within the same directory or sub directory?.

In Django absolute imports works in respect to the manage.py. You have your manage.py in ten_project directory so that means your import should be

from ten_app.models import AccessRecord, Webpage, Topic

check if your project root is there in your system path – mursalin Jun 26 '20 at 06:54
Yes I've checked seems Ok – just don't be user123 Jun 26 '20 at 06:55
can you change your import as I suggested and update your question with error report? – mursalin Jun 26 '20 at 07:03
If you are using Atom or VS CODE then you won't see the Error but if you use Pycharm then Pycharm going to show you an error that Dir not getting called properly. Have a look at this screenshot **http://prntscr.com/t6r0sq** – just don't be user123 Jun 26 '20 at 07:11
that's the correct way to call dir `ten_project.ten_app.models import AccessRecord, Webpage, Topic` but still not working – just don't be user123 Jun 26 '20 at 07:12
Thats because pycharm is not configured properly and doesn't know your project root. your question **is not** about IDE configuration. Does it give any error if you run your script? – mursalin Jun 26 '20 at 07:16

Problem Solved. Thanks to @mursalin problem were in misspell that's totally funny. Here is the updated line `webpg = Webpage.objects.get_or_create(topic=top, url=fake_url, name=fake_name)[0]` – just don't be user123 Jun 26 '20 at 07:29
