  AWS Serverless Application Model (SAM) CLI

  The AWS Serverless Application Model extends AWS CloudFormation to provide
  a simplified way of defining the Amazon API Gateway APIs, AWS Lambda
  functions, and Amazon DynamoDB tables needed by your serverless
  application. You can find more in-depth guide about the SAM specification
  here: https://github.com/awslabs/serverless-application-model.

Options:
  --debug    Turn on debug logging
  --version  Show the version and exit.
  --help     Show this message and exit.

Commands:
  package  Package an AWS SAM application. This is an alias for 'aws
           cloudformation package'.
  init     Initialize a serverless application with a...
  deploy   Deploy an AWS SAM application. This is an alias for 'aws
           cloudformation deploy'.

Expected result:

I expect the commands to work as expected. Displaying help should simply show:

Looks like this issue is back. Getting Command ‘local’ is not configured correctly. Unable to import ‘samcli.commands.local.local’ with the usual trace ending … ImportError: No module named ssl_match_hostname pip uninstall backports.ssl-match-hostname pip install -U docker Did not fix, nor did updating packages, awscli aws-sam-cli & backports.ssl-match-hostname Clearly a problem with the backports.ssl-match-hostname. Local version is backports.ssl-match-hostname-3.5.0.1 Current work around is to change default python to 3.6 where backports.ssl-match-hostname is not needed.

Thanks, @jfuss doing:

pip uninstall backports.ssl-match-hostname
pip install -U docker

As posted here made it work 🙌🏻
