I've also tweaked some of the names to make them clearer e.g. that
the form is used to apply a change to a service.
I've constrained the scope of this change to avoid forms that may
be accessible by non-admins in the future.
Daily volumes report: total volumes across the platform aggregated by whole business day (bst_date)
Volumes by service report: total volumes per service aggregated by the date range given.
NB: start and end dates are inclusive
Having to submit the form for each choice separately slowed us down
during an incident where Redis was unavailable and came back with
stale data, which we had to clear manually.
Note: we don't want to use the "flush" feature in case there are other
keys in Redis, which may not be safe to remove.
This will make it easier to add another test / feature to clear all
the cache keys. It's debatable which of "sum" and "max" is useful:
- "max" is a better (although still not accurate) indicator of the
number of "things" affected e.g. templates, services, etc.
- "sum" makes sense in places where "max" doesn't e.g. when we clear
the "organisations" group, which doesn't equate to individual orgs.
Using "sum() ... across" seems like a reasonable compromise and makes
it clear that we're iterating over different kinds of keys.
While the pluralisation is nice, I don't think it's worth the effort
to make it work for both "object(s)" and "format(s)".
This field caused some confusion and lots of unnecessary work
to our colleague because of unclear name.
The field was named sms_fragments, where in fact the value of
the field is: those sms fragments that go above free allowance
multiplied by the rate multiplier.
The new name was chosen through consultation with colleagues
who use billing report the most.
We have a `client_request` fixture which does a bunch of useful stuff
like:
- checking the status code of the response
- returning a `BeautifulSoup` object
For most tests of a platform admin view we used `platform_admin_client`
instead. This is not as good because it returns a raw `Response` object
and doesn’t do the additional checks.
This commit converts all the tests using `platform_admin_client` to:
use new `client_request` and log in as `platform_admin_user` before
making any requests.
This is also nice because it makes any test easy to parametrize with
additional users, for example to test differences in behaviour dependant
on being platform admin or not.
When dates chosen for billing report are not in the same
financial year, API throws an error. This error was not being
caught so far. This PR starts to catch it and display a banner
with error message on the page, instead of page crashing.
We used to upload this to performance platform to show the list of
services and organisations.
There is no longer a performance platform to upload this file to.
When we add a new property to the broadcast model, we need to delete any
cached broadcasts from Redis that are missing the new property. So this
adds an option to do this to the cache page in platform admin.
I’ve also tried to make it more obvious what the magic numbers in the
test fixture are doing.
This should:
- make the page load faster because it has to render less HTML for each
service
- make the page easier to scan for services that are sending lots of
text messages or letters
We used to scan this page to look for services with high failure rates,
and the design of the page was gear towards this. Now we have alerting
for high failure rates, so the page can focus on volumes instead.
This commit also puts the service name above the statistics, so that
long service names don’t break the layout of the page.
A lot of pages in the admin app are now generated entirely from Redis,
without touching the API.
The one remaining API call that a lot of pages make, when the user is
platform admin or a member of an organisation, is to get the name of
the current service’s organisation.
This commit adds some code to start caching that as well, which should
speed up page load times for when we’re clicking around the admin app
(it’s typically 100ms just to get the organisation, and more than that
when the API is under load).
This means changing the service model to get the organisation from the
API by ID, not by service ID. Otherwise it would be very hard to clear
the cache if the name of the organisation ever changed.
We can’t cache the whole organisation because it has a
`count_of_live_services` field which can change at any time, without an
update being made.
This page is slow to load which means:
- it’s annoying for us
- it’s potentially causing load on the database
This commit does two things to reduce the amount we’re unnecessarily
looking at this page:
1. Avoid redirecting to it when signing in as a platform admin user
2. Don’t go directly to it when clicking ‘platform admin’ at the top,
but instead show a holding page (there’s a fair chance you’ve clicked
that link in order to go and manage some email branding or find a
user, not wait for stats to load)
We’re going to start using the returned letters summary to show some
info on the dashboard.
This means we will be accessing it more often than it changes. And we
know exactly when it changes because it’s us manually submitting the
references we get from DVLA.
This makes it a good candidate for being cached, and Redis is where we
cache stuff that we’d otherwise go to the API for.
We can use the ‘Uploads’ feature to check if letters are printable now.
This code works in a completely different way, so if we kept it we’d
have to maintain two different code paths, and make sure that they
didn’t diverge.
Also deletes the related HTML templates.
