Aws-sam-cli: Package and Deploy needs AWS CLI

[goldenbearkin]

I ran "sam package ..." in circleci, below is what I got (I can successfully run locally on my mac High Sierra):
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/sam", line 11, in <module> sys.exit(cli()) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/click/core.py", line 722, in __call__ return self.main(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/click/core.py", line 697, in main rv = self.invoke(ctx) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/click/core.py", line 1066, in invoke return _process_result(sub_ctx.command.invoke(sub_ctx)) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/click/core.py", line 895, in invoke return ctx.invoke(self.callback, **ctx.params) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/click/core.py", line 535, in invoke return callback(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/click/decorators.py", line 64, in new_func return ctx.invoke(f, obj, *args[1:], **kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/click/core.py", line 535, in invoke return callback(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/samcli/commands/package/__init__.py", line 22, in cli do_cli(args) # pragma: no cover File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/samcli/commands/package/__init__.py", line 26, in do_cli execute_command("package", args) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/samcli/lib/samlib/cloudformation_command.py", line 17, in execute_command subprocess.check_call([aws_cmd, 'cloudformation', command] + list(args)) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 535, in check_call retcode = call(*popenargs, **kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 522, in call return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 710, in __init__ errread, errwrite) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1335, in _execute_child raise child_exception OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

The package and deploy commands need the AWS CLI installed. I thought we already had this called out in the README, but that doesn't look to be the case.

Marking this as a doc update related to package and deploy.

Any mention at all in the docs that you need to "pip install awscli" would be _really_ helpful.

Our docs point to install AWS CLI already. Example: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/serverless-application-model/latest/developerguide/serverless-sam-cli-install-mac.html

Closing as it is resolved.
