The orchagent and syncd need to have the same default synchronous mode configuration. This PR adds a template file to translate the default value in CONFIG_DB (empty field) to an explicit mode so that the orchagent and syncd could have the same default mode.
We were building our own python-click package because we needed features/bug fixes available as of version 7.0.0, but the most recent version available from Debian was in the 6.x range.
"Click" is needed for building/testing and installing sonic-utilities. Now that we are building sonic-utilities as a wheel, with Click specified as a dependency in the setup.py file, setuptools will install a more recent version of Click in the sonic-slave-buster container when building the package, and pip will install a more recent version of Click in the host OS of SONiC when installing the sonic-utilities package. Also, we don't need to worry about installing the Python 2 or 3 version of the package, as the proper one will be installed as necessary.
- create a dockerfile-marcros.j2 file with all common operations
written as j2 macro
- use single dockerfile instruction for COPY and RUN commands
when possible to improve build time
- reorganize dockerfile instructions to make more cache friendly
(in case someday we will remove --no-cache to build docker images)
