Was just in one of those meetings where it felt like writing this would
take less time than I’d already spent talking about its relative
priority…

In the admin app you can already set the broadcast channel as 'test', 'severe' or 'government'.
Aim:
- Add the 'operator' channel to the list of channels you can pick for the admin app broadcast services
Note:
- The API already supports this - https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-api/pull/3262
- The CBC proxy does not yet support the operator channel and this will need a separate card. That card has not yet been written because the interface has not been agreed between us and the MNOs yet.
- Will need to have the ability to select the operator channel for just a single MNO like we do for the other channels
- If we add this, we shouldn't actually start using it until the MNO in question gives us the go ahead.

is unable to print the letter we need to mark the letter as failed.
If we mark the letter as a technical-failure, we say that we will fix
the issue, which is wrong because we can not fix the issue.
If we mark the letter as validation-failed, the letter is in wrong
bucket so the letter is not viewable/downloadable by the client.
This PR updates the message for a letter marked as permanent-failure to
better reflect what has actually happened.
if user has `webauthn_auth` as their auth type, then redirect them to an
interstitial that prompts them to click on a button which right now just
logs to the JS console, but in a future commit will open up the webauthn
browser prompt
content is unsurprisingly not final.
I don’t think we need to say (all networks) in the header. The real
benefit of this change is forcing the platform admin person making the
change to explicitly give their choice of network.
And by not putting it in the label we don’t have future users from other
organisations wondering if there’s some option other than ‘all networks’
they need to think about.
We can use the `optional_text_field` macro to grey out the text when
nothing is set up. And adding ‘registered’ makes the language consistent
through to the next page.
When referring to something that’s not part of the Notify system, like a
spreadsheet or a paper letter or a security key we’ve found it’s helpful
to give people a visual representation of it. This commit does the same
for security keys.
This closes a security loophole, where the auth type of a Platform
Admin could be unwittingly changed when they accept an invite, or
by an admin of a service they are a member of.
Previously we could only select a provider when using the test
channel, but this is also required for others channels when we
do tests on the production network with individual MNOs.
In order to reduce duplication and improve consistency, I've reused
the new broadcast_service_name_tag macro to show the setting.
This makes the code shareable between:
- the broadcast tour pages
- the broadcast settings platform admin page
- the regular service navigation
On the training mode tour pages we don’t want to confuse people with the
organisation name or _Switch service_ links, so those are omitted and
the code is therefore slightly different.
At the moment if you’re invited to a live broadcast service you get the
training mode tour. This is misleading, and could make people think they
weren’t in danger of sending a real alert.
This commit adds a short, 2 step tour for users invited to a live
broadcast service.
We want people to be really sure before sending a live broadcast, not
just clicking through the green buttons.
This commit adds a checkbox which explains exactly the consequences of
what they’re about to do, tailored to the channel they’re on, and the
area chosen by the person creating the alert.
This scopes the check for WebAuthn API to the page where we need
it, which will slightly reduce load times for other pages. Since
we want this script to execute ASAP, I've added a new block for
extra JS to run at the start of the body.
This hides the "Register" button and shows an error that's specific
to one of two ways a browser may not support WebAuthn:
- JavaScript is disabled (there's no possible fallback for this).
- WebAuthn API is not supported (e.g. on Internet Explorer).
We could add a similar check for the API in the JS code to handle
the button click, but hiding it seems like enough protection.
In order to avoid elements flashing when the page loads, this uses
a view macro to embed a script at the start of the body element,
which is the same approach used for the "js-enabled" class flag [1].
Tested with Chrome and IE 11.

This adds Yubico's FIDO2 library and two APIs for working with the
"navigator.credentials.create()" function in JavaScript. The GET
API uses the library to generate options for the "create()" function,
and the POST API decodes and verifies the resulting credential. While
the options and response are dict-like, CBOR is necessary to encode
some of the byte-level values, which can't be represented in JSON.
Much of the code here is based on the Yubico library example [1][2].
Implementation notes:
- There are definitely better ways to alert the user about failure, but
window.alert() will do for the time being. Using location.reload() is
also a bit jarring if the page scrolls, but not a major issue.
- Ideally we would use window.fetch() to do AJAX calls, but we don't
have a polyfill for this, and we use $.ajax() elsewhere [3]. We need
to do a few weird tricks [6] to stop jQuery trashing the data.
- The FIDO2 server doesn't serve web requests; it's just a "server" in
the sense of WebAuthn terminology. It lives in its own module, since it
needs to be initialised with the app / config.
- $.ajax returns a promise-like object. Although we've used ".fail()"
elsewhere [3], I couldn't find a stub object that supports it, so I've
gone for ".catch()", and used a Promise stub object in tests.
- WebAuthn only works over HTTPS, but there's an exception for "localhost"
[4]. However, the library is a bit too strict [5], so we have to disable
origin verification to avoid needing HTTPS for dev work.

When showing what auth type user uses to sign in, add a text
for users with webauthn.
On password change or sign in, throw not implemented error
if user uses webauthn auth.
