There’s no useful information in the page for the future financial year
because there’s no way for any of the services to have yet used
anything.
Changes this matches the change we made to the service usage page in
https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-admin/pull/3439/files
We’re going to have different allowances next financial year. This means
that when someone adds a service, we’ll need to check which year it is,
so we can give them the right allowance.
This commit changes the config structure so that the current allowances
are explicitly assigned to the 2020/21 financial year.
It freezes the tests to the 2020/21 financial year, so they won’t start
failing automatically when next financial year comes around.
This adds an audit event to the `events` table when the broadcast
permissions for a service (the service mode, channel or provider
restriction) changes.
The links in the blue boxes on the job page needed hidden text so that
they work out of context. This changes the text from "10 sending" to "10
sending text messages" (with the message type hidden text).
Note, no option at the moment to set the service broadcast account type
as None, or back to without the broadcast permission. This has been done
for speed of development given the chance of us needing this is very
low. We can add it later if we need to.
This makes the preview of the email / SMS to send consistent with
the final screen, which we previously changed to show the "reply
to" text irrespective of whether the user had selected anything.
As per ticket and as per Caley's request, so everything can be
edited together.
Also pluralise labels for billing contact info, to indicate
that putting multiple in is ok, and widen the input fields so
that it is more comfortable to input multiple contact details.
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.

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.

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 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.
Users sending text messages are sometimes unaware that long messages
will cost more.
Users sending broadcast messages need to be aware that there’s a
character limit, so they can take this into account when planning their
messages.
This commit adds an endpoint which counts the number of characters in
some template content, and returns a snippet of useful info about how
long the message is.
In subsequent commits we’ll be able to use AJAX to fetch this snippet as
the user types.
There’s a surprising amount of complexity in counting the length of
messages. So we’ll need to do this in Python because it would be too
convoluted to re-implement the length counting in client side code, let
alone ensuring it had parity with its Python equivalent.
We have lots of functions for converting various types of data into
strings to be displayed to the user somewhere.
This commit collects all these functions into their own module, rather
than having them cluttering up `app/__init__.py` or buried amongst
various other things that have ended up in `app/utils.py`.
`app/utils.py` is a bit of a dumping ground for things we don’t have a
better place for.
We now have a place and structure for storing ‘model’ code (‘model’ in
the model, view, controller (MVC) sense of the word).
This commit moves the spreadsheet model to that place.
We shouldn’t have a page where someone can look up any other user’s
email address based on their user ID.
We also don’t want a page where a malicious user could send someone an
link which would get them invited to the service.
Restricting the invite to be populated just from users in their own
organisation doesn’t mitigate against this stuff completely, but they
probably have a way of finding out the email address of someone in their
organisation already.
