The last_dest_idx variable should always have been
tracking the last index in the source list. The
original intention, implemented incorrectly, was
to just append any items which source has no item
at that index.
Update all methods that were previous calling @cache.delete('service-{service-id}-template-None') to instead call _delete_template_cache_for_service
Remove call to get service templates, it's not needed since all template version cache is being deleted.
If a user has only send_message permissions, when they click on a
template name they are currently taken to the `send_one_off` page. This
is incorrect as if there is more than one SMS sender or email reply to
address, then they should pick the address they wish to use.
This commit fixes that bug by redirecting them to the `set_sender`
route. Note, if there is only one sender then the `set_sender` will
redirect the user on to the `send_one_off` route.

A comment on the pull request for this branch
pointed out that it's not clear why the 'items'
list is deleted and then reassigned in
extend_params:
https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-admin/pull/3770#pullrequestreview-573067465
The simple reason is that we want to use
merge_jsonlike to merge params and
param_extensions (passed in as extensions) but
merge_jsonlike doesn't merge lists correctly.
I realised that if we just make merge_jsonlike
merge lists correctly, we can use it for
everything extend_params does.
This commit does that, and replaces all calls to
extend_params with merge_jsonlike.
Because extend_params is used across many form
field classes, and so many pages, I took the
following precautions after making those changes:
1. found every use of param_extensions
2. looked at the merges onto params that each would
cause and deduped them to a final list of 6(!)
3. tested pages containing fields from that list
4. added new testcases to the merge_jsonlike tests
for any merges that exist in our codebase but
not in our tests
Current behaviour is to check item-against-item
and merge based on whether items match, irrelevant
of position. This doesn't produce the results we
need for our usecases (merging data to send to
GOVUK Frontend components).
We actually want:
- items to be compared based on their position
- new primitive items at the same position to
overwrite existing ones
- dicts or lists at the same position to be merged
For example,
Starting with this list:
[{"name": "option-1", "value": "1"}]
Merging in this list:
[{"hint": {"text": "Choose one option"}}]
You currently get this:
[
{"name": "option-1", "value": "1"},
{"hint": {"text": "Choose one option"}}
]
We want to get this:
[
{
"name": "option-1", "value": "1",
"hint": {"text": "Choose one option"}
}
]
After talking with the reviewer, it was decided
that:
1. the JS could do with some comments to explain
its structure and what various functions do
better
2. some CSS selectors in the tests don't need to
be as complex and simplifying them makes the
test easier to read
At the moment the admin app expects all broadcasts to have a template,
and expects the content of the alert to come from the template.
This commit makes it so those pages can still get a `Template` instance,
but populated with content straight from the `content` field in the
database.
Form can be pre-filled with existing data upon instantiation.
WTForms will know not to do this on POST request.

Makes focus shift to the first time in the range
when you select a day.
Also rewrites the code for controlling focus so it
explains itself better, now it has different
settings.
All buttons that open or close a region of the
component should have aria-expanded attributes to
show:
- they have that control
- the state of the region
We think that in some cases alerts will be composed in the moment, and
therefore making people first create a template is:
- not a good use of their time
- adding some conceptual complexity which they don’t need
This commit makes it possible to type some words and have them go
straight into the `content` field in the database.
In the future we might want to progressively enhance the radio buttons
so they show on the same page (like we do with the grey buttons on the
templates page).
The OrganisationAgreementSignedForm class has a
bug causing it to render different HTML when the
page loads to when you subsequently refresh it.
This commit proposes a change to the extend_params
function to fix it.
extend_params, is used by the
OrganisationAgreementSignedForm, as well as all
the other WTForms field classes we added to wrap
GOVUK Frontend components. Fixing it should
therefore fix any similar bugs with them.
All of these fields send a dict of configuration
data to the GOVUK Frontend component when they
call it, at render time. This dict is 'JSON-like',
meaning it's values can be all the primitives as
well as lists and dicts. This also means it can go
quite deep.
Extending the default configuration
The classes have a default dict of this data kept
privately in the params variable. They let you
change it by passing in an argument called
param_extensions on instantiation, after that,
through an attribute of the same name and at
render time as the same argument (in templates).
The extend_params function
The param_extensions dict is used as a collection
of changes to make to the default params dict.
The changes are applied by the extend_params
function. Its code deletes part of the
param_extensions, a side effect that didn't seem a
problem because it isn't used after the function
has run.
The bug
The bug was only with the part of the HTML that
got its data from the part of the param_extensions
dict that was deleted by extend_params. The class
with the bug set param_extensions when the field
is instantiated, as part of its parent form
definition.
My guess is that param_extensions was stored in
memory, as part of the form class, and reused
when the page refreshed. At that point,
extend_params had deleted part of its data,
causing the bug.
jQuery.attr returns `undefined` if an element does not have an
attribute. We want an empty string, rather than the default of coercing
`undefined` to the string `'undefined'`.
The content length message was making the page jumpy and causing reflows
in three ways. This commit addresses each of those ways:
As the user scrolled
---
The footer went from fixed to sticky and the spacing around the message
changed. This change in spacing was needed so that the message looked
right in both contexts.
I think the best way to resolve this is to not use the sticky footer
when editing text message or broadcast templates.
On my 1440×900 screen I can fit a 5 fragment text message, plus the
‘will be charged as 5 text messages’ message, plus the save button.
Our top 10 screen resolutions according to our analytics are:
Position | Resolution | Percentage of users
---------|------------|--------------------
1 | 1920x1080 | 27.37%
2 | 1280×720 | 11.07%
3 | 1366×768 | 8.88%
4 | 1536×864 | 5.79%
5 | 1440×900 | 4.52%
6 | 1600×900 | 3.71%
7 | 1280×1024 | 3.10%
8 | 1680×1050 | 2.42%
9 | 1920×1200 | 2.33%
10 | 2560×1440 | 1.99%
When the page first loaded
---
The message is empty so takes up no space, then the javascript fires
and inserts the message, taking up a line of space.
This is resolved by making the empty message take up space with a
non-breaking space character.
When the user first typed
---
We previously didn’t show any message until the user started typing.
This meant that, with the above fix, there was a larger than normal
empty space between the textarea and the save button.
This is resolved by always showing the message, even when the user
hasn’t typed anything yet.
***
These are design decisions which made sense when the message was
displayed along side the button, but we’ve had to change now that the
message is above the button.
We feel that this is more appropriate because it’s part of the
information you’re agreeing to before you hit submit.
Sometimes users can missing information that doesn’t start left-aligned
to the column they’re interacting with.
It also makes it closer to the Design System component.
We’re keeping it in the sticky footer, so that it’s always visible no
matter where in the message you’re scrolled to (this means you won’t
have to edited to content then scroll down to check whether you’ve
made it fit).
This looks tidy, and because of the sticky footer it means the message
is always visible, even if your template is quite long. So no matter
where you’re scrolled to in the template you don’t have to scroll to the
bottom to see the count update.
The endpoint that count characters should be pretty low-load because it
won’t talk to the database (unless, on the first request, the user and
service aren’t cached in Redis).
The response size is also very small, only one line of text wrapped in a
single `<span>`, so won’t be as CPU-intensive to render as a whole page.
Still, we don’t want to completely hammer the server if a user types
very quickly.
This commit adds some throttling, so that we wait until there’s a
certain amount of delay between keystrokes before firing off the request
to the backend.
I’ve set the delay at 150ms. At normal typing speed this makes the lag
feel fairly imperceptible – it feels like you get an updated count in
response to most keystrokes. It’s only if you really mash the keyboard
that the count won’t update until you take a breath.
