Django Import Export: Documentation cannot be understood

I wish to use django import export.

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-import-export

While reading the documentation and after installing and configuring the package, I reached the "Creating Import-Export Resource' paragraph:

https://django-import-export.readthedocs.org/en/latest/getting_started.html#creating-import-export-resource

In which directory/file should I insert and save those lines of python that will create the resource?

You can create this file anywhere in your project and then just import it where it's necessary.
So, following the docs, when your app is called core:

#myproject/core/myresources.py
from import_export import resources
from core.models import Book


class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):

    class Meta:
        model = Book

And then anywhere in your project's code:

from core.myresources import BookResource

dataset = BookResource().export()
