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`.
Because we’re be grouping jobs under their parent contact lists it’s
good to have some information ‘scent’ to help people find their jobs,
ie by clicking into a contact list. It also lets you see which list have
been used more than others, maybe because the update hasn’t been sent
to that group of people yet.
The hint text under uploads always says when they were used. For contact
lists this is a bit more complicated, since they can:
- never have been used
- been used multiple times
This commit makes use of the new fields being returned by the API to say
determine when these messages are relevant. They also let us
differentiate between a contact list that’s never been used, and one
that has been used, but not recently enough to show any jobs against it.
