# Start a container that mimic the lambda environment
docker run -it --rm --entrypoint bash  -e ODBCINI=/var/task -e ODBCSYSINI=/var/task -v "$PWD":/var/task  lambci/lambda:build-python2.7

# Then, download ODBC source code, compile and take the output
curl ftp://ftp.unixodbc.org/pub/unixODBC/unixODBC-2.3.5.tar.gz -O
tar xvzf unixODBC-2.3.5.tar.gz
cd unixODBC-2.3.5
./configure  --sysconfdir=/var/task  --disable-gui --disable-drivers --enable-iconv --with-iconv-char-enc=UTF8 --with-iconv-ucode-enc=UTF16LE --prefix=/home
make install
cd ..
mv /home/* .
mv unixODBC-2.3.5 unixODBC-2.3.5.tar.gz /tmp/

# Install MSsql odbc driver
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/config/rhel/6/prod.repo > /etc/yum.repos.d/mssql-release.repo
ACCEPT_EULA=Y yum -y install msodbcsql
export CFLAGS="-I/var/task/include"
export LDFLAGS="-L/var/task/lib"

# Then you can install pyodbc (or pip install -t . -r requirements.txt)
pip install pyodbc -t .

cp -r /opt/microsoft/msodbcsql .

cat <<EOF > odbcinst.ini
