- Why I did it

As part of moving all SONiC code from Python 2 (no longer supported) to Python 3.

- How I did it

  • Convert system-health scripts to Python 3
  • Build and install system-health as a Python 3 wheel
  • Also convert newlines from DOS to UNIX.

- How to verify it

Ensure system-health package builds, installs and works properly

- Which release branch to backport (provide reason below if selected)

  • 201811
  • 201911
  • 202006

Fixes #6104

See https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/blob/6c362a08e72e14da8880586f089d4860e786947c/src/system-health/scripts/healthd#L71, system health depends on platform API to set the chassis LED. It means that we need the platform API to support python3 first.

@Junchao-Mellanox: I believe currently only Mellanox supports the system-health daemon. I will set this back to draft until Mellanox has a Python 3 sonic-platform package installed. Please keep me posted.

a preliminary check, seems that we still need some change in this here https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/blob/master/src/system-health/health_checker/utils.py#L11

need decode the 'output' before using : output.decode('utf-8')

Thanks for catching this! Rather than decoding, I added a text=True parameter to the subprocess.Popen() call. This is an alias of the universal_newlines=True parameter which is only available in Python 3. Since we no longer need to support Python 2 with this package, I used the new, shorter, more understandable alias. This will force the output to always be a string.

EDIT: I replaced text=True with universal_newlines=True, because LGTM is still processing these files as Python 2, even though the setup.py file has been updated to Python 3 only. It must be looking at some other setup.py file in the repo. So, for the time being, I changed it to universal_newlines=True, which works with both Python 2 and Python 3.

Also, note that I found that the Python files all had DOS line endings, so I changed them all to UNIX, which is why the diff is now much larger.

Pass universal_newlines=True parameter to subprocess.Popen(); no longer use .encode('utf-8') on resulting stdout.
This was missed in #5886

Note: I would prefer to use text=True instead of universal_newlines=True, as the former is an alias only available in Python 3 and is more understandable than the latter. However, Even though the setup.py file for this package only specifies Python 3, the LGTM tool finds other Python 2 code in the repo and validates the code as Python 2 code and alerts that text=True is an invalid parameter. Will stick with universal_newlines=True for now. Once all Python code in the repo has been converted to Python 3, I will change all universal_newlines=True to text=True.
