Use last version of Azure Storage Library

[dorianamouroux]

Hi,

As far I as know, django-azure-storage currently use the version 0.20.3 of Azure Python SDK. This one is embedded in the azure package. They split the storage API to another repository.
We can find a newer version here : https://github.com/Azure/azure-storage-python (0.32.0).

I have implemented AzureStorage class to work with latest azure-storage-python(0.33). Can I submit a PR for same(?), so that forth-coming users will able to use the project with latest azure-storage sdk.

You should create another pip module because the maintainers of this one don't seem to care too much

Feel free to. We have not been keeping up to date with the latest Azure Storage SDK releases mostly because this version works for us, but we wouldn't be opposed to reviewing and accepting pull requests that update the SDK version and integrate new features.

Any news here?

We're still accepting pull requests that upgrade this library to use the latest version of Azure Blob Storage.

Last time we had to do it, there weren't many changes required (this library doesn't do a whole lot). We just haven't done it since we don't require any of the features in the newer versions of the Azure SDK.
