adding admin interface to existing pyramid app - python-2.7

Question

I'm trying to add a nice admin interface to an existing Pyramid project. I created a test project using pcreate -s alchemy -s pyramid_fa fa_test and then copied all the extra files created into my project and altered them to be suitable.
Everything looks to be good and dandy until I try to add a formalchemy route:
config.formalchemy_model("/foo", package='bar',
model='bar.models.specific_models.Thingy',
**settings)
Then I get: ImportError: No module named forms
My question is: How do I fix this? Or what is the correct way to add an admin interface?
I've googled around a bunch to no avail...
Here's relevant code:
fainit.py:
from bar import models, faforms
import logging
def includeme(config):
config.include('pyramid_formalchemy')
config.include('bar.fainit')
config.include('fa.jquery')
config.include('pyramid_fanstatic')
model_view = 'fa.jquery.pyramid.ModelView'
session_factory = 'bar.models.access.DBSession'
## register session and model_view for later use
settings = {'package': 'bar',
'view': model_view,
'session_factory': session_factory,
}
config.registry.settings['bar.fa_config'] = settings
config.formalchemy_admin("/admin", models=models, forms=faforms,
**settings)
# Adding the package specific routes
config.include('shop.faroutes')
log.info('formalchemy_admin registered at /admin')
faroutes.py
from bar import models
import logging
log = logging.getLogger(__name__)
def includeme(config):
settings = config.registry.settings.get('shop.fa_settings}}', {})
config.formalchemy_model("/alerts", package='shop',
model='shop.models.super_models.Alert',
**settings)
log.info('shop.faroutes loaded')
And the traceback:

Answer 1

It sounds like it's looking for you to create a forms module at shop.faroutes.forms.
