Ok, figured out that one of my problems was that the entities I
uploaded were of type Shop, but that the app was probably looking for
entities of type myapp_Shop . I uploaded a set of entities of that
type, and got no better results.
It seems that if I use item = get_object() then what I get back is an
item that isn't of type Shop (so when I try item.name I get an
attribute error).
If I use ShopList = Shop.all() I get back an empty result set.
