opencensus-ext-azure trace_exported request.success value is always False on Python2

• Python 2.7.13
• django==1.11.20
• opencensus == 0.7.1
• opencensus-ext-django == 0.7.0
• opencensus-ext-azure == 0.7.0

Looks like on Python2 exported request success status is wrong, because of objects comparison on this line

Steps to reproduce. data.success = (status_code >= 200 and status_code <= 399)

if status_code type is string, than:

>>> ("200" >= 200 and "200" <= 399) >>> False

since in python2 int is always less than str

Otherwise: >>> (200 >= 200 and 200 <= 399) >>> True

This mainly affects all requests success status displayed in Azure Monitor Log which is set to False

@RocketPuppy #755 got merged today. We will do a hotfix release. Closing the issue now. If you cannot wait for the hotfix release, there is a way to install the package from master branch directly:

pip install "git+https://github.com/census-instrumentation/opencensus-python.git@master#subdirectory=context/opencensus-context"
pip install "git+https://github.com/census-instrumentation/opencensus-python.git@master"
# add your packages (e.g. opencensus-ext-azure) based on what's needed
...

@lzchen need your help to do a hotfix release. Thanks.

@RocketPuppy yes, but the main issue is that status code is being sent as a string, but it should be ant int. This is fixed in #755 !
