Docker - pip support is not available at the moment

Just wondering if you have a issue opened already regarding still needing pip support?

I'm interested in using this tool and having ability to build the Python lambdas in environment that is near identical to the lambda env that it runs (especially if a pip install requires some dependent machine specific install which may need machine dependent library support outside of pip - for example, the pymssql package (so lambda can read/write to SQL Server based RDS database) is good use case that depends on FreeTDS which is pre-requisite machine specific installation needed before doing pip install pymssql - http://pymssql.org/en/latest/intro.html.

You might want to retry this. The current lambci/lambda:build-python2.7 Docker image includes pip and virtualenv.

FYI, I tried the instructions for using pip in the docker image (here), but it looks like these build instructions do not actually override the defaults.

From my jenkins log:

@astewart-twist Could you try renaming requirements.txt to requirements-docker.txt so that gordon does not automatically pick it up.
