Fixes the height of the component until it’s loaded so that it doesn’t
causes the page to reflow while it’s rendering the buttons.
Stops the options being shown and then immediately hiding on initial
page load.
The options for scheduling a job by time should be grouped by day,
because a long list of 96 options is not very usable.
On the server side, this commit generates label for the next 4 days in
a friendly format (ie today/tomorrow/Sunday/Monday)
The Javascript component for choosing a time was built in a kind of
old-school jQuery way, where it manipulated the elements on the page.
The complexity of introducing groups of options was just too much for
this pattern, because it involves storing a lot of state in the DOM.
This commit completely rewrites the JS to:
- read the initial options and groups from the HTML and store them
in the object
- use Hogan to completely re-render the UI from a series of Mustache
templates, each of which represents a state of the UI and takes the
inital options and groups
- filter the choices to show when the today/tomorrow/… buttons are
clicked
Basically:
- shows all the months from start of given financial year to now or end
of given financial year (whichever is earliest)
- shows a breakdown of free and paid text messages for each of these
months
Depends on:

Services who are in alpha or building prototypes need a way of sending
to any email address or phone number without having to sign the MOU.
This commit adds a page where they can whitelist up to 5 email addresses
and 5 phone numbers.
It uses the ‘list entry’ UI pattern from the Digital Marketplace
frontend toolkit [1] [2] [3].
I had to do some modification:
- of the Javascript, to make it work with the GOV.UK Module pattern
- of the template to make it work with WTForms
- of the content security policy, because the list entry pattern uses
Hogan[1], which needs to use `eval()` (this should be fine if we’re
only allowing it for scripts that we serve)
- of our SASS lint config, to allow browser-targeting mixins to come
after normal rules (so that they can override them)
This commit also adds a new form class to validate and populate the two
whitelists. The validation is fairly rudimentary at the moment, and
doesn’t highlight which item in the list has the error, but it’s
probably good enough.
The list can only be updated all-at-once, this is how it’s possible to
remove items from the list without having to make multiple `POST`
requests.

We’ve found in research that developers have no idea they’re in trial
mode until they hit an error. And even then they don’t really know what
trial mode means.
So this commit:
- adds a message to the API integration page about trial mode
- puts it in a really yellow banner to draw attention to it
- adds the same banner to the settings page
This is like the ‘pill’ pattern that we use for filtering lists of
notifications. However it is meant for navigating between discrete
things, not a filtered view of the same list.
This is why is has a gutter between each item, and no selected state.
Turns out we already had a pattern about this on the dashboard, so this
commit also changes the dashboard to use the same code.
This commit changes the tables of notifications from 3 columns to two
columns. This is so the text has more room, so it doesn’t start
overlapping.
It also makes sure that if the recipient gets really long that it will
be cut off with an ellipsis, rather than overlapping…
I hypothesize that if a notification fails you probably don’t care when
it failed, just that it failed.
The way that we collapse column headings so that they don’t take up any
vertical space is by setting their `font-size` to zero. However this
seems to take them out of the flow of the document, so their top border
also disappears. This commit sets the `font-size` to the smallest
non-zero value to avoid this.
On the dashboard:
- adds a new ‘in the next 24 hours’ section to the dashboard which lists
upcoming jobs
- tweaks some spacing on the dashboard so that it doesn’t look like too
much of a mess
- don’t show scheduled jobs in the table of normal jobs
On the jobs page:
- don’t show scheduled jobs
Users need to pick a time in the next 24hrs, or send a file immediately.
Rationale for this is a bit lost in time-before-holiday, but generally:
‘Now’ and ‘later’ as the inital choices makes it really clear what
this feature is about conceptually.
The choice of times is absolute, eg ‘1pm’ not ‘in 3 hours’
Because the placeholder highlighting was defined in pixels it got
slightly out of line when it was used at larger type sizes, eg inside a
heading.
By using `em`s it will scale with the size of the type.
Tables with a `layout` of `fixed` determine column widths from the
width of the column headings.
We weren’t setting the width of the first column heading, so our tables
were getting out of alignment.
Implements: https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-utils/pull/51
Copies the same regex.
Adds some CSS to display conditional placeholders differently to
normal placeholders (vertical rather that curved right-hand edge).
The team page was a bit of a mess:
- invited and active tables didn’t line up
- lots of things were wrapping onto two lines
- the empty fields for when a user didn’t have permissions looked broken
This commit splits each row of the table (not actually a table any more)
onto two lines. First line has the user’s info, second has their
permissions and any associated actions.
Since this page is more than just your API keys, it should be named
something else.
Hopefully the word ‘integration’ will give non-techical users a clue
that it’s possible to use Notify without doing the CSV dance.
…and change the page heading on next page to match.
‘Send emails’ doesn’t speak to you if you already have the idea of a
file or address book in mind. ‘Upload’ better describes what you’re
going to do on the next page.
Also makes all the links regular weight, because having the first one
bold looked like a heading.
Since we’re removing the write email/write text message calls to action
from the tour, we should reintroduce them to the dashboard, for users
who are unsure what they should do next.

It’s been unclear that:
- the dashboard exists
- that you click the name of the service to get back to it
So this commit:
- takes the link off the service name
- adds a link labelled ‘Dashboard’ to the navigation
Text messages have a maximum length, which we tell the users. We
shouldn’t expect people to count the characters in the message
themselves.
This commit borrows [the word counter from the Digital Marketplace
frontend toolkit](9d17690de5/toolkit/javascripts/word-counter.js)
and adapts it to count characters instead.
Things I’m still not sure about with this:
- what should it say when the message goes over the length of one text
message
- what’s the interaction with placeholders, which will change the length
of the message
This commit also adds a line to the pricing page which explains that
service name counts towards the length of the message.
There are some common questions that keep coming up when users are
editing or creating templates. This commit adds a pattern for sections
of guidance which can be shown/hidden.
It then modifies the guidance as follows.
Change:
- guidance about placeholders; give an example about what to do and what
not to do (because the mistake we keep seeing people make is putting
the thing itself, not the name of the thing)
Add (pretty basic at the moment but a need for these has come out of
research):
- guidance about links
- guidance about message length for text messages
A long email message needs to be collapsed to only show the first few
lines. The problem is that we were doing this by adding a class with
Javascript, meaning that the email wasn’t being collapsed until the
script in the footer ran.
This caused a jump in the page because the browser was painting the
whole email message, then repainting it once it was collapsed.
This commit takes advantage of the `.js-enabled` class added to the
`<body>` by a script in the `<head>` of GOV.UK template.
This means that the email message is collapsed with CSS before the first
paint of the page, so no jump.
This introduces some complexity in how we determine which emails get the
expander toggle. Because they’re already collapsed we can’t get their
height and work out if they’re long enough to need collapsing.
So we need to take a copy of the message, put it off-screen, expand it,
get its height, then remove it from the DOM. Bit of a faff.
Because of this there’s still a quick flash of the toggle if you see an
email message that’s too short to need collapsing. I think this is the
lesser of two evils—very short email messages will be few and far
between in the real world.
These numbers don’t look very clickable white-on-black.
Blue is the colour of links, so lets see if they are more clickable in
blue.
The same clicking-a-big-number thing is also happening on the activity
page, so this commit also changes the activity page to look the same.
We can filter notifications on the activity page by state.
This commit adds counts to those filters.
This is mainly so that we can consistently do the same thing on the job
page later on.
With sending, delivered and failed all on one line there’s not much
space. When these numbers get relatively big (in the 000s) they can
start mushing into each other.
This commit makes them smaller so that they remain separate.
a9f79bcf07 made all tables have a `fixed`
layout. This causes issues with the spreadsheet-looking tables.
This commit treats tables with half-width first columns as the
exception, not the rule, and makes other tables display as before.
