In order to crawl a large text file containing URLs, I required a method that would allow me to specify and read only a certain range of lines, without having to load the entire file into memory. To achieve this, I utilized the islice() function from Python's itertools module: itertools.islice()

Here is a code snippet that demonstrates this:

I have been ignoring the message to upgrade awsebcli tool for long time. This time I did not ignore and made an attempt to upgrade:

pip install --upgrade awsebcli

No matching distribution found for botocore<1.22.0,>=1.21.0 (from awsebcli)

pip install --upgrade pip --user

sudo pip install --upgrade awsebcli botocore==1.19.63

ERROR: pip's legacy dependency resolver does not consider dependency conflicts when selecting packages. This behaviour is the source of the following dependency conflicts.
boto3 1.7.68 requires botocore<1.11.0,>=1.10.68, but you'll have botocore 1.19.63 which is incompatible.
awsebcli 3.20.2 requires botocore<1.22.0,>=1.21.0, but you'll have botocore 1.19.63 which is incompatible.

It installed with errors. I verified installation by deploying my new update to beanstalk environment to see if awsebcli tool is working fine. It did not. I got this error:
