Ben Thorner a30a317153 Fix 500 error due to inconsistent recipient check
This strengthens the initial check of what's in the session to make
sure it contains some kind of recipient. Without this, we get:

    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/home/vcap/deps/0/python/lib/python3.9/site-packages/flask/app.py", line 1950, in full_dispatch_request
        rv = self.dispatch_request()
      File "/home/vcap/deps/0/python/lib/python3.9/site-packages/flask/app.py", line 1936, in dispatch_request
        return self.view_functions[rule.endpoint](**req.view_args)
      File "/home/vcap/app/app/utils/user.py", line 26, in wrap_func
        return func(*args, **kwargs)
      File "/home/vcap/app/app/main/views/send.py", line 1041, in send_notification
        recipient=session['recipient'] or InsensitiveDict(session['placeholders'])['address line 1'],
      File "/home/vcap/deps/0/python/lib/python3.9/site-packages/notifications_utils/insensitive_dict.py", line 41, in __getitem__
        return super().__getitem__(self.make_key(key))
    KeyError: 'addressline1'

I'm not sure how to reproduce this, but this should at least give
the user a better experience, instead of a 500 page.

Setting up

Python version

At the moment we run Python 3.9 in production.

NPM packages

brew install node

NPM is Node's package management tool. n is a tool for managing different versions of Node. The following installs n and uses the long term support (LTS) version of Node.

npm install -g n
n lts

environment.sh

In the root directory of the application, run:

echo "
export NOTIFY_ENVIRONMENT='development'
export FLASK_APP=application.py
export FLASK_ENV=development
export WERKZEUG_DEBUG_PIN=off
"> environment.sh

AWS credentials

To run parts of the app, such as uploading letters, you will need appropriate AWS credentials. See the Wiki for more details.

To run the application

# install dependencies, etc.
make bootstrap

# run the web app
make run-flask

Then visit localhost:6012.

Any Python code changes you make should be picked up automatically in development. If you're developing JavaScript code, run npm run watch to achieve the same.

To test the application

# install dependencies, etc.
make bootstrap

# run all the tests
make test

# continuously run js tests
npm run test-watch

To run a specific JavaScript test, you'll need to copy the full command from package.json.
