When we initially added a new task to persist the notifications for a high volume service we wanted to implement it as quickly as possible, so ignored SMS.
This will allow a high volume service to send SMS, the SMS will be sent to a queue to then persist and send the SMS, similar to emails.
At this point I haven't added a new application to consume the new save-api-sms-tasks. But we can add a separate application or be happy with how the app scales for both email and sms.
test_config manipulates os.environ. os.environ is an `environ` object,
which acts like a dict but isn't in some subtle unknowable ways. The
`reload_config` fixture would create a dict copy of the env, and then
just call `os.environ = old_env` afterwards.
Boto3 would then complain that it couldn't load credentials (despite us
using the mock_s3 fixture and also not having creds in the environment
in the first place). Not entirely sure why this happens, but it does.
For some reason, it being a `dict` instead of an `environ` object causes
the mocking of boto3 to fail.
The solution is to not overwrite os.environ entirely, rather, use the
standard dictionary setitem syntax to update the values to their
previous values. Use `clear` to empty the environment too.
- Created TaskNames for DVLA_FILES rather than have DVLA_FILES in QueueNames
- Removed PROCESS_FTP from all_queues() as this was causing problems in picking up letter job tasks
- Created test to ensure that we don't arbitrarily add queue names to all_queues
previously in run_app_paas.sh, we captured stdout from the app and
piped that into the log file. However, this came up with a bunch of
problems, mainly:
* exceptions with stack traces often weren't formatted properly,
and kibana could not parse them
* celery logs were duplicated - we'd collect both the json logs and
the human readable stdout logs.
instead, with the updated utils library, we can use that to log json
straight to the appropriate directory directly.
