There was an awkward line break in this text, and the line length was
too long because there was no grid on the page.
Splitting it into two paragraphs makes it:
- read nicer
- avoids any awkward line breaks
Once all our users have upgraded to the latest clients they won’t need
this. The latest clients only use the combined key and service ID.
Discuss: when can we safely remove it?
This will stop us repeatedly forgetting to add `novalidate` and
`autocomplete='off'` to our forms (which is how most of them are set
up).
It uses sensible defaults, based on how we most-commonly configure
forms:
- most of our forms are `post`ed (but this can be overridden)
- `autocomplete` should only be enabled where it makes sense, otherwise
it’s more annoying than useful (but this can be overriden)
- we should never be using HTML5 form validation because our own error
styles and messages are better
Currently revoking an API key takes you to a separate page. It should
work the same way as other destructive actions, ie staying on the same
page but with a banner asking you to confirm the action.
In pages specific to a service (e.g. dashboard and sub pages) the title
needs to distinguish which service it applies to. This is mainly to give
context to screen reader users who could be managing multiple services.
Implementing this uses template inheritance:
`page_title` includes `per_page_title` includes `service_page_title`
‘GOV.UK Notify’ is inserted into every page title.
Pages that set `service_page_title` get the service name inserted too.
This is trying to resolve these confusions:
- that you’re in trial mode, which means you can’t have a live key yet (
or you can but it wont work, which is what we used to have)
- what does simulate mean
The create key page is the right place to resolve these confusions
because it’s where users are actively reading.
This commit also removes the trial mode banner from API integration
page because this where users _aren’t_ actively reading. A whole bunch
of users weren’t seeing this banner at all.
The implementation of the disabled API key options is kinda clunky
because WTForms doesn’t have a native way of doing this.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
In research we’ve seen people mix up the service ID and API key because
they’re both 36 character UUIDs. We can’t get rid of the service ID
because it’s used to look up the API key.
Instead, we should change API key to be one long string, which contains
both the service ID, API key and (optionally) the name of the key. For
example:
```
casework_production-8b3aa916-ec82-434e-b0c5-d5d9b371d6a3-dcdc5083-2fee-4fba-8afd-51f3f4bcb7b0
```
We still need to keep the old, separate, key and service ID for a while
until people have updated their clients. But they’re now both on this
page, rather than on two separate pages, which should make for less
fussing anyway.
This shouldn’t be rolled out until the new clients are available.
