pip install mysqlclient fails on Ubuntu with python 2.7 on docker

Question

When I ran the docker file code below

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \
        ca-certificates \
        vim \
        git \
        python \
        python-pip \
        curl \
        wget \
        lsof \
        libmysqlclient-dev \
        python-dev \
        && \
    apt-get clean && \
    rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

#PYTHON requirements

ENV HTTPS_PROXY "https://gec-proxy-svr.homeoffice.wal-mart.com:8080/"

RUN python --version
RUN pip install pip --upgrade
RUN pip install  setuptools
RUN pip install setuptools --upgrade
RUN pip install git+https://github.com/PyMySQL/mysqlclient-python.git
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt

I got this error

I tried installing libmysqlclient-dev and python-dev through apt-get update but it does not seem to address the issue.

on my system, this command (x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc) is part of the gcc package; is it installed correctly? — MCO

FROM ubuntu:16.04 is what I had sorry but build_essential did the trick — vkaul11

Add build-essential to the apt-get install package list.

It seems that your base image is very basic, and does not have gcc installed, so you cannot compile anything.
