Attempting this approach, calling :

create_permissions(my_app_config)

from within my migration fails to create the permissions. It looks like 
*create_permissions 
*checks for *models_module* on the provided app config. However, when my 
migration runs, my *models_module* is *None. *

So is there a better time when models_module is available?  My 
understanding of models_module is that I have a models.py in my app, which 
I indeed do. I can call 

my_app_config.get_models()

and I get a list of all of my models, but *my_app_config.models_module* 
remains *None*

If I try this from the django shell:

from django.apps import apps
apps.get_app_config('my_app').models_module


The result here is not *None*, so it seems the issue is migration related.
