Python 3.10 support

@jiasli - will the Docker image be upgraded to python 3.10.x? currently is 3.9.6 (which is not the latest one though)

@miqm, actually we use Python 3.8 in DEB package and Windows MSI, and Python 3.6 in RPM. 😅

Are there any absolute needs to use Python 3.10 in the docker image? I can certainly prioritize it if they are reasonable.

@jiasli - It's not a must, however often people use the CLI image in CI/CD systems and some new custom-made scripts might benefit from newer python features.

In general it would be awesome if you produce a series of azure-cli docker tags so people could choose which kind of base image they would like to use (i.e. python3.9-slim-bullseye, python3.8-alpine, etc.)

@miqm, this is a good suggestion. I have created #21074 to track it.

Answer 6 · 2022-01-24T05:44:38.000Z

@miqm, upgrading to Python 3.10 in #21079.
