Ben Thorner c0da7a27ed Fix not showing errors for invalid contact uploads
This code should behave the same way as other CSV uploads [1],
but we had to write it in a hurry [2] and the way we show an
error with the upload field was based off that for PDF uploads,
where we show custom button text instead of an error [3].

This fixes the inconsistency, so that we see the same errors
for CSV uploads here as in other parts of the app.

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.

To update application dependencies

requirements.txt is generated from the requirements.in in order to pin versions of all nested dependencies. If requirements.in has been changed, run make freeze-requirements to regenerate it.
