This is the existing behaviour. It’s broken by this issue in WTForms
2.2.1: https://github.com/wtforms/wtforms/issues/401
This commit hand-crafts the default value, because WTForms is ignoring
the `default` argument on the form object attribute.
Not really sure how this ever worked 🤔
We’re interested to know which services are looking at the basic view
preview (even if they’re not turning it on).
This commit logs their service IDs as events into Google Analytics.
There are some teams who send jobs on a daily/weekly basis. They have
team members who only use Notify for this purpose. So they would
probably benefit from basic view, because they don’t need to see the
dashboard.
This commit:
- adds a new item (uploaded files) to the basic view navigation for
teams that have sent at least one job
- makes the job pages visible to basic view users
I think we should do this now, rather than as a later enhancement to
basic view. We only have one chance to announce the feature, so teams
who do send jobs may otherwise discount it as not useful for them and
the opportunity to have them use it is lost.
Calling `.set()` with `True` stores the byte string `'True'` which
cannot subsequently be decoded from JSON (because boolean values in
JSON are lowercase, ie `true`).

‘Non-scheduled’ more explicitly describes that statues in this set.
We don't want pyup.io upgrading sub-dependencies listed in the
requirements.txt file since it does it whenever a new version is
available regardless of what our application dependencies require.
The list of top-level dependencies is moved to requirements-app.txt,
which is used by `make freeze-requirements` to generate the full
list of requirements in requirements.txt.
(See alphagov/notifications-api#1938 for details.)
Each of these methods does the same thing, so this refactors into an
attribute lookup, which saves writing boilerplate code and makes it
easier to add new properties.
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).
Having the service floating about as JSON is a bit flakey. Could easily
introduce a mistake where you mistype the name of a key and silently
get `None`.
Also means doing awkward things like `if 'permission' in
current_service['permissions']`, whereas for users we can do the
much cleaner `user.has_permission()`.
So this commit:
- introduces a model
- adds a `.has_permission` method similar to the one we have for users
The list of services this page was looking at only included those not
belonging to an organisation.
On production this excludes services we’ve added to organisations to
make the management of those services easier (eg ‘GDS’ and ‘DVLA’).
Sometimes when setting up a service you might have a few very similar
templates, in which only a small amount of content. Or you might even
have a few of services, which are used by different teams but have
similar templates.
Copy and pasting, especially from one service to another, is a pain.
This commit makes it easier by allowing users to copy an existing
template when choosing to add a new one, instead of starting from
scratch.
At the moment the dashboard does two API calls to find out if a service
has:
1. Scheduled jobs
2. Normal jobs
API calls are slow because they are synchronous, go over the network and
touch the database. We can’t cache these API calls because:
- a scheduled job could become a normal job at any time
- the statistics on a normal job are constantly updating
However there are plenty of services which don’t have any jobs, and
probably never will. And finding out if a service has any jobs is
reliably cacheable (because as soon as a service creates its first job
it has some jobs).
So this commit:
- refactors the way we get scheduled/normal jobs into the job_api_client
to make the view a bit slimmer
- makes an additional, Redis-wrapped call to find out if any jobs exist
before trying to get the jobs
This should result in a speedup on the dashboard, and can be used in the
future if there’s anywhere else we want to show or hide something
depending on whether a service has created any jobs (I have some ideas).
