Hassbian/virtual environment/appdaemon configuration confusion

Third party integrations AppDaemon
1

I need experienced eyes to look at this for me. I am trying to install hassbian (done), and appdaemon (done). I am confused about how to set up the directory structure when appdaemon is in a virtual environment. I have looked at the appdaemon docs but I am confused. I am getting thus error:

(appdaemon) homeassistant@hassbian:/home/pi $ appdaemon -c /home/homeassistant/appdaemon/
/srv/appdaemon/lib/python3.5/site-packages/appdaemon/admain.py:184: YAMLLoadWarning: calling yaml.load() without Loader=... is deprecated, as the default Loader is unsafe. Please read https://msg.pyyaml.org/load for full details.
  config = yaml.load(config_file_contents)
ERROR Error loading configuration
ERROR parser says
ERROR   in "<unicode string>", line 28, column 13:
      dash_key: !secret home_assistant_password
                ^
ERROR could not determine a constructor for the tag '!secret'

Here is my directory structure where the secrets file resides:

Here is my directory structure where the appdaemon.yaml file resides:

Here is my appdaemon.yaml file contents:

secrets: /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/secrets.yaml

      token: !secret my-token 
hadashboard:
  dash_url: http://192.168.1.29:5050 
  dash_key: !secret home_assistant_password

I am not confident of my directory structure. In my last iteration I did not use virtural environments and it seemed a little more straightforward, to me, at least.

Any help would be much appreciated.
