The polyfill we use for details/summary only renders the arrow if the
browser doesn’t natively support the feature.
The latest versions of Firefox _do_ now support the feature (after 5
years), but for some reason they don’t draw the arrow. So this commit
forces the arrow to be polyfilled in all browsers, and hides the browser
default one, for those browsers that do render it.
The details of each notification were not being hidden on page load in
Firefox.
Firefox does not natively support the `<details>` element, so we
polyfill it.
Because of the way the polyfill is written[1]
1. There can’t be any `<div>` elements inside the `<summary>` (this
commit changes them to be `<span>`s instead, and adds CSS to make
sure they wrap as before)
2. The contents to be shown/hidden must be wrapped in a `<div>` (which
this commit adds)

Basically:
- shows all the months from start of given financial year to now or end
of given financial year (whichever is earliest)
- shows a breakdown of free and paid text messages for each of these
months

It’s weird to be on a page that says ‘2 seconds ago’ and stays stuck
there.
We don’t want to AJAX the whole page because it would get in the way of
interacting with the list of notifications.
This commit adds the venerable jQuery Timeago[1] plugin to keep the
relative times accurate and fresh.

Now that we’ve removed simulated notifications from the dashboard and
activity pages they’re not visible anywhere in the app.
While they should’t be visible to non-technical users, developers have
a real need for Notify to confirm that their code is doing what they
expect. This is needed especially when they’re just getting started with
Notify.
There’s no way of seeing this info from the API either, because a key
can only get notifications created with a key of that type.
It doesn’t make sense to make this a ‘mode’ of the dashboard or activity
because the information about notifications that developers need is
also different. So this commit adds up to 50 of the most recent
notifications sent via the API to the page that developers use as their
‘home’ page.
This also lets us explain the 7 days thing to developers via the
empty slate state of this area of the page.
Services who are in alpha or building prototypes need a way of sending
to any email address or phone number without having to sign the MOU.
This commit adds a page where they can whitelist up to 5 email addresses
and 5 phone numbers.
It uses the ‘list entry’ UI pattern from the Digital Marketplace
frontend toolkit [1] [2] [3].
I had to do some modification:
- of the Javascript, to make it work with the GOV.UK Module pattern
- of the template to make it work with WTForms
- of the content security policy, because the list entry pattern uses
Hogan[1], which needs to use `eval()` (this should be fine if we’re
only allowing it for scripts that we serve)
- of our SASS lint config, to allow browser-targeting mixins to come
after normal rules (so that they can override them)
This commit also adds a new form class to validate and populate the two
whitelists. The validation is fairly rudimentary at the moment, and
doesn’t highlight which item in the list has the error, but it’s
probably good enough.
The list can only be updated all-at-once, this is how it’s possible to
remove items from the list without having to make multiple `POST`
requests.

We’ve found in research that developers have no idea they’re in trial
mode until they hit an error. And even then they don’t really know what
trial mode means.
So this commit:
- adds a message to the API integration page about trial mode
- puts it in a really yellow banner to draw attention to it
- adds the same banner to the settings page
This is like the ‘pill’ pattern that we use for filtering lists of
notifications. However it is meant for navigating between discrete
things, not a filtered view of the same list.
This is why is has a gutter between each item, and no selected state.
Turns out we already had a pattern about this on the dashboard, so this
commit also changes the dashboard to use the same code.
This commit changes the tables of notifications from 3 columns to two
columns. This is so the text has more room, so it doesn’t start
overlapping.
It also makes sure that if the recipient gets really long that it will
be cut off with an ellipsis, rather than overlapping…
I hypothesize that if a notification fails you probably don’t care when
it failed, just that it failed.
The way that we collapse column headings so that they don’t take up any
vertical space is by setting their `font-size` to zero. However this
seems to take them out of the flow of the document, so their top border
also disappears. This commit sets the `font-size` to the smallest
non-zero value to avoid this.
On the dashboard:
- adds a new ‘in the next 24 hours’ section to the dashboard which lists
upcoming jobs
- tweaks some spacing on the dashboard so that it doesn’t look like too
much of a mess
- don’t show scheduled jobs in the table of normal jobs
On the jobs page:
- don’t show scheduled jobs
Users need to pick a time in the next 24hrs, or send a file immediately.
Rationale for this is a bit lost in time-before-holiday, but generally:
‘Now’ and ‘later’ as the inital choices makes it really clear what
this feature is about conceptually.
The choice of times is absolute, eg ‘1pm’ not ‘in 3 hours’
Because the placeholder highlighting was defined in pixels it got
slightly out of line when it was used at larger type sizes, eg inside a
heading.
By using `em`s it will scale with the size of the type.
The previous text on this page around trial mode was a bit of a
mouthful. Also it only really made sense if you already knew what trial
mode was.
This commit tries to make it really explicit:
- that you’re in trial mode
- what it means to be in trial mode (copied from the trial mode page)
- where you go to not be in trial mode
Forgot to include this before.
The template expects it in `./images` but it should probably live in
`./images/email-template`.
This commit puts it in both places; we can clean up later.
We need to host these images somewhere. Let’s start off doing it in
the admin app, like we do for other email assets.
Eventually we should have a CDN in front of this.

The pages with AJAX on were feeling quite sluggish, and it felt like
they were making the whole browser slow down.
Looking at the performance stuff in Chrome, the number of DOM nodes was
going up and up, which is weird because the number of things on the page
wasn’t changing. This was causing the page to consume more and more
memory in order to store all these nodes.
This is kinda beyond my understanding, but I tried a few things and it
looks like the browser was having a hard time garbage collecting the
temporary bits of DOM used to update the page.
By assinging these bits of DOM to variables before using them it seems
that the browser has an easier time cleaning them up.
Tables with a `layout` of `fixed` determine column widths from the
width of the column headings.
We weren’t setting the width of the first column heading, so our tables
were getting out of alignment.
Implements: https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-utils/pull/51
Copies the same regex.
Adds some CSS to display conditional placeholders differently to
normal placeholders (vertical rather that curved right-hand edge).
The team page was a bit of a mess:
- invited and active tables didn’t line up
- lots of things were wrapping onto two lines
- the empty fields for when a user didn’t have permissions looked broken
This commit splits each row of the table (not actually a table any more)
onto two lines. First line has the user’s info, second has their
permissions and any associated actions.
Since this page is more than just your API keys, it should be named
something else.
Hopefully the word ‘integration’ will give non-techical users a clue
that it’s possible to use Notify without doing the CSV dance.
…and change the page heading on next page to match.
‘Send emails’ doesn’t speak to you if you already have the idea of a
file or address book in mind. ‘Upload’ better describes what you’re
going to do on the next page.
Also makes all the links regular weight, because having the first one
bold looked like a heading.
Since we’re removing the write email/write text message calls to action
from the tour, we should reintroduce them to the dashboard, for users
who are unsure what they should do next.

It’s been unclear that:
- the dashboard exists
- that you click the name of the service to get back to it
So this commit:
- takes the link off the service name
- adds a link labelled ‘Dashboard’ to the navigation
