pip install Error: no matching distribution ARM-based AWS Lambda environment

[phitoduck]

Hi! Fun tool! I've been playing with it today and yesterday, and am showing it on a live stream next Tuesday.

I want to run sqlite-vec in an AWS lambda function. I was able to get it to install in a non-ARM function docker image, but it won't install in the ARM-based version.

That's sad because ARM-based AWS lambda runtimes are a good bit cheaper (and I think faster).

Anyway, here are some commands to reproduce it:

    # fails on ARM
    docker run --rm \
        --entrypoint "/bin/bash" \
        --platform linux/arm64 \
        public.ecr.aws/lambda/python:3.11 \
            -c "pip install --upgrade pip && \
            pip install sqlite-vec"

    # succeeds on x86
    docker run --rm \
        --entrypoint "/bin/bash" \
        --platform linux/amd64 \
        public.ecr.aws/lambda/python:3.11 \
            -c "pip install --upgrade pip && \
            pip install sqlite-vec"
