Invalid syntax error on running AWS command

Question

I am getting the below exception while trying to run any AWS command on my MacBook, for example:

Command

aws s3api create-bucket --bucket my_backup  --region us-west-2 --create- 
bucket-configuration LocationConstraint=us-west-1

Exception

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/avinash/.local/share/virtualenvs/pipend_shell_3- 
x8skfE25/bin/aws", line 7, in <module>
from aws.main import main
File "/Users/avinash/.local/share/virtualenvs/pipend_shell_3- 
x8skfE25/lib/python3.6/site-packages/aws/main.py", line 23
print '%(name)s: %(endpoint)s' % {
                             ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I am using Python 3.6.5 and have installed aws:

pip install aws

I figured out the issue. I did pip install aws instead of pip install awscli.

We need to use the below command to install AWS CLI:

pip install awscli
