How to use mysql dump with django?

I am new to both django and mysql, I am given a mysql dump file that will be used in a django app. I created a new database and restored the dump file into that using mysqldump. Now I am lost about how to use both of them together. Please help.

Assuming that you have restored the dump on to your database.

Make django migrations

python manage.py makemigrations

Fake the migrations

python manage.py migrate --fake

Run the app

python manage.py runserver

On a side note, you can check if you have database credentials on in your settings.py of your application

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
        'NAME': 'mydatabase',
        'USER': 'mydatabaseuser',
        'PASSWORD': 'mypassword',
        'HOST': '127.0.0.1',
        'PORT': '5432',
    }
}
