The message we were showing before (Please log in to access this page is
the default message from Flask Login).
In order to stop this flash message from appearing, we need to override
the default handler for when a user is unauthorised. We’re overriding it
with the same behaviour, minus the flash message.
If you navigate deliberately to the sign in page it’s unchanged.
Content is Sheryll-approved.
We have a bunch of different styles of handling when function
definitions span multiple lines, which they almost always do with tests.
Here’s why an argument per line, single indent is best:
- cleaner diffs when you change the name of a method (one line change
instead of multiple lines)
- works better on narrow screens, eg Github’s diff view, or with two
terminals side by side on a laptop screen
- works with any editor’s indenting shortcuts, no need for an IDE
Also, trailing comma in the list of arguments is good because adding a
new argument to a method becomes a one line, not two line diff.
We don't want large numbers in Production to start overlapping other columns
in the tables when they have less space available, and putting these messages
at the top of the page under the h1 means that we don't need an extra column
on the page yet.
When we make the numbers on this page more filterable the date range will be
one of the options to change, so it makes sense to move it to the side now
instead of leaving it above the big numbers.
This page currently includes all notifications for all services, including
those sent using a test key. Stats on all other pages exclude test key usage,
though, which can lead to confusion for admins comparing numbers between
pages. Adding the option to toggle between including and excluding test key
usage on the platform admin page gives context for this difference, and allows
admins to see live usage of the platform as well as load associated with test
key usage.
