I receive the appended error when I use the following ansible command:

docker\_image: path=./docker name=url\container:v7.2.4 tag=7.2.4 push=yes

fatal: [[jira-1.corp.inbaytech.com](http://jira-1.corp.inbaytech.com)]: FAILED! =\> {“changed”: false, “failed”: true, “msg”: “Failed to import docker-py - No module named requests.exceptions. Try `pip install docker-py`”}
