Custom template tag - ImportError

Hello,

I'm creating a custom template tag with this tutorial: http://dev.splunk.com/view/SP-CAAAERA to create a "state manager". The final result will be a big green "check" icon (ex: http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRbWqg58C_4e1kCoxBv_YtCgWb7ZvaQs9Qa5ga4enKH7vW0ONieAIBt5TMM) or a big red cross + A date under

So, to be simple I decide to set:
app_name as "check"
template tag name as "check"

I create check.py:

from django import template
from splunkdj.templatetags.tagutils import component_context
register = template.Library()
@register.inclusion_tag('splunkdj:components/component.html', takes_context=True)
def check(context, id, *args, **kwargs):       # The template tag
    return component_context(
        context,
        "check",                           # The custom view's CSS class name
        id,
        "view",
        "check/check",             # Path to the JavaScript class/file for the view
        kwargs
    )

Check.js:

// Custom view tutorial
define(function(require, exports, module) {
    // Load requirements
    var _ = require('underscore');
    var mvc = require('splunkjs/mvc');
    var SimpleSplunkView = require('splunkjs/mvc/simplesplunkview');

    // Define the custom view class
    var CheckView = SimpleSplunkView.extend({
        className: "check",

        // Override the render function to make the view do something
        // In this example: print to the page and to the console
        render: function() {

            // Print to the page
            this.$el.html("Hello, world!");

            // Print to the console
            console.log("Hello, world!");

            return this;
        }
    });
    return CheckView;
});

And check.html

{% extends 'splunkdj:base_with_account_bar.html' %}

{% load splunkmvc %}

{% load check %}

{% block title %}{{your_app_name}}My Custom View{% endblock title %}

{% block content %}
    <h3>Custom View</h3>
    {% check id="check1" %}
{% endblock content %}

But when I access to : http://localhost:8000/dj/check/check I get:

    raise ImproperlyConfigured('ImportError %s: %s' % (app, e.args[0]))
ImproperlyConfigured: ImportError check: No module named check

Do you why did I get this error?

OK, my bad the answer was to create a splunk app with CLI not with splunk Web
