ImportError when importing from a lower module

Question

I'm trying to import an object named db (SQLAlchemy object) in in a module of my Flask Project in order to use the SQLAlchemy in my models (models.py). Assuming my package is named Foo and contains the db object in his __init__.py file , when i try to do a from Foo import db, i get the following error:

ImportError: cannot import name db

I'm using Flask Blueprint to dispatch my project into two applications (dashboard and frontend) and each of them contains an __init__.pyfile. Only the models.py is throwing this error, i got some imports in my views file (as importing the login manager) and everything goes well.

Any idea of what it could be ?

UPDATE : The traceback

Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: cannot import name db

First, thanks for the help. Concerning my second question : "How to import Flask models into views without having a circular import issue (when using SQLAlchemy)", i found a solution. It consists to setup the SQLAlchemy object not into the application __init__.pyfile but into the models.pyfile itself. With that, you can import it in your views.pyfile without problem.

My models.py file, now:

from kuchiyose import app
from flask.ext.sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemy

db = SQLAlchemy(app)

And my views.py

from kuchiyose.dashboard import models
