Currently the order of API keys seems to be non-deterministic:
d46caa184e/app/dao/api_key_dao.py (L32-L39)
Generally we sort things alphabetically, unless there’s a good reason to
do otherwise.
This commit sorts the API keys alphabetically.
It’s redundant to make two API calls here, one to get all keys and one
to get a single key. Since the API calls are sequential we can speed
things up by getting the one key from the list of all keys.
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?
Pytest is deprecating the direct calling of fixtures. One fixture that
we call directly quite a lot is `fake_uuid`. Since it just returns the
value of `sample_uuid()` we can either call that instead (where we need
a fixed value) or generate a new UUID each time (where a fixed value is
not needed).
It’s useful to be able to see what the email or text message looks like,
especially if you’ve sent it with a test API key (so it isn’t in your
inbox or on your phone). We already have the page for this, so we just
need to link to it.
This is better than just keying into the JSON because it means you get
an exception straight away when looking up a key that doesn’t exist
(which via mocking you could ordinarily miss).
We’ve had a user who’s said:
> Seems configured callbacks cannot be removed once they’re set as the
> fields have a presence check. Is that intentional?
This means it’s not working as they expect. Rather than have to go and
change stuff in the database for them, let’s make it work as they’d
expect.
Only lets you clear the form if you remove both the token and the URL.
we were seeing isort produce different outputs locally and in docker -
this was due to it having different opinions about whether the tests
module (ie all our unit tests) is a first party (local) or third party
(pip installed) import. It's a first party import, so by defining this
in the setup.cfg isort settings, we can force it to be consistent
between environments.
Note: I don't know why it was different in the first place though
test_api_keys.py and test_api_integration.py were almost identical
files with only a few lines difference between them. By moving one
test we can now delete test_api_keys.py
Precompiled letters can now have two additional states:
* pending-virus-check
* virus-scan-failed
Both new states should show in the notifications dashboard, and
virus-scan-failed should appear as an error state, with a descriptive
message. You should not be able to preview a letter in one of the two
new states, so the preview link has been removed for precompiled letters
in these states.
Done using isort[1], with the following command:
```
isort -rc ./app ./tests
```
Adds linting to the `run_tests.sh` script to stop badly-sorted imports
getting re-introduced.
Chosen style is ‘Vertical Hanging Indent’ with trailing commas, because
I think it gives the cleanest diffs, eg:
```
from third_party import (
lib1,
lib2,
lib3,
lib4,
)
```

Both `<button type='submit'>Submit<button>` and
`<input type='submit' value='Submit'>` can be used to submit a form.
We have historically[1] used `<input>` because it’s better-supported by
IE6 in that:
- the `submit` attribute is mandatory on `<button>`, not on `<input>`
- the `innerHTML` of a button will be submitted to the server, not the
value (as in other browsers)
Reasons to now use `<button>` instead:
- IE6/7 support is no longer a concern (especially with deprecation of
TLS 1.0 on the way)
- Because an `<input>` element can’t have children, the pseudo-element
hack[2] used to ensure the top edge of the button is clickable doesn’t
work. We’re seeing this bug[3] affect real users in research.
