Knack hasn't been republished to make status_tag_messages available to az cli

[scseely]

az feedback auto-generates most of the information requested below, as of CLI version 2.0.62

Describe the bug
After forking and cloning the repo, I tried to do some development. I cannot start the app because of an import of this line: https://github.com/Azure/azure-cli/blob/dev/src/azure-cli-core/azure/cli/core/__init__.py#L45.

Investigating, the functionality which defines knack.util.status_tag_messages was introduced on Dec 16, 2020 but the knack package on PyPi.org has not been updated since July 28, 2020 (https://pypi.org/project/knack/).

To Reproduce
Follow setup instructions, try to run. If you do not have the latest knack, you cannot proceed. Author who introduced the issue is also the maintainer of knack.

Expected behavior
The import should work and code should proceed.

Environment summary
Running on Windows using VS Code and a clean virtual environment (never installing packages into the global libraries for python).

Additional context
Also submitted details to author of the changes (discovered using BLAME).

The current Azure CLI has a hard dependency on

azure-cli/src/azure-cli-core/setup.py

Line 52 in c7155bb

'knack==0.8.0rc2',

Knack 0.8.0rc2 does have the knack.util.status_tag_messages defined:

https://github.com/microsoft/knack/blob/v0.8.0rc2/knack/util.py#L17-L20

status_tag_messages = {
    'preview': "{} is in preview. It may be changed/removed in a future release.",
    'experimental': "{} is experimental and under development."
}

I believe pip will automatically install Knack 0.8.0rc2 for you whether you are installing the dev Azure CLI using

• azdev setup, or
• pip install -e azure-cli azure-cli-core

BTW, we are going to release Knack 0.8.0 very soon (microsoft/knack#231).

Verified that project is able to be debugged in VS Code now. Looks like this isn't a bug. Thank you!
