Python django packages not installing

When I run an "pip install" it works and the package installs. Here is an example for the import-export package: 

Installing collected packages: xlrd, pyyaml, xlwt, unicodecsv, jdcal, et-xmlfile, openpyxl, defusedxml, odfpy, tablib, diff-match-patch, django-import-export
Successfully installed defusedxml-0.5.0 diff-match-patch-20181111 django-import-export-1.2.0 et-xmlfile-1.0.1 jdcal-1.4 odfpy-1.4.0 openpyxl-2.6.0 pyyaml-3.13 tablib-0.12.1 unicodecsv-0.14.1 xlrd-1.2.0 xlwt-1.3.0

but when I try to run the app with the package, I get this error:

  File "~/projects/hosproject/venv/lib/python3.7/importlib/__init__.py", line 127, in import_module
    return _bootstrap._gcd_import(name[level:], package, level)
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 1006, in _gcd_import
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 983, in _find_and_load
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 965, in _find_and_load_unlocked
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'import-export'

I have added 'import-export' to my apps. This error occurs when I run "python3 manage.py collectstatic".

If "I have added 'import-export' to my apps." means

# settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'import_export',
)

it may be

import import_export

no hyphen, it is underbar

I think you are using "Django-import-export".

In your settings.py you must add the following.

# settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = (
     ...
     'import_export',
)

and then use $ manage.py collectstatic

For more information read this documentation
