Yes, If your connection with database is done then you can simple run this command in your terminal to generate models for your models.py :

python manage.py inspectdb > models.py

A new models.py file will be created on project level so you basically copy the code and save it in your App/models.py . Then run your migrations:

python manage.py makemigrations app

Then

python manage.py migrate

After this you have to import all tables in your admin.py and register them like this:

from .models import *

admin.site.register(#modelname)

Run this command to download mysqlclient - pip install mysqlclient

Add This settings in your settings.py

DATABASES = {
'default': {
    'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
    'NAME': 'myproject',                        #<-- database name
    'USER': 'myprojectuser',                    #<-- database username
    'PASSWORD': 'password',                     #<-- database password
    'HOST': 'localhost',
    'PORT': '5432',                             #<-- Change it port you're using
    }
}
