I'm just running through the "Building a Module" documentation for v9 and am following along.
My code looks identical to the examples here: https://www.odoo.com/documentation/9.0/howtos/backend.html.
When I start the server this is my error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

If I delete the "from . import models" from the init.py I get a different error:
ParseError: "Invalid model name in the action definition.
None" while parsing /home/lslaz/odoo-dev/addons/openacademy/views/views.xml:8, near

</record>
Please help! I'm confident that both there things are as they should be but I can't move forward until I figure out what the problem is.
I don't know why but in my case Odoo generates models like .py file in new application, but not like folder.
If you want use folder for your models you need:
1) import models in your __init__.py like this:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import models
2) create __init__.py in folder models and import your all models like this:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import my_model_one
import one_more_model
# etc.
