The NOTIFY_ENVIRONMENT variable is set to `production` from the run_paas_app script, but that is overwritten with `live` in the create_app function when starting an application.
Although this is confusing and it would be good to resolve that. It is a larger piece of work. For now I have included booth strings in the if condition, that way when we do migrate the code we will not have an issue with these two methods.
if the international_billing_rates.yml has `dlr: null`, that means we
don't know what delivery receipts they provide - they might not provide
any. So if we do get an update, we don't know for sure that the message
was actually delivered - lets not update it.
- as the response is fake, the notifications billable_unit is left at 0, the fake dvla response should also be 0. Otherwise there will be confusing logs reporting mismatched page count and billable units which are just research ones.
- task not really necessary as the status is already set to 'sending' before the task is called if it is not sending i.e. in reseach mode or using a test key
- calls create fake response file to allow functional tests to run and trigger update of status to delivered only on preview and development so that FT response files don't pollute staging and live buckets
- call create fake response file task if in research mode only on preview and development environments to not impact response files on staging and live
needed for monitoring the performance of the v2 endpoints. They were put
in as a temporary measure whilst sustained performance testing was
taking place.
sent by the notify service, including 2FA and email auth messages.
These should never be delayed by other messages in the queue.
Created a separate delivery app to consume the notify-internal-tasks
queue and only that queue.
The personalisation for letters can take different formats depending on
how the letter was generated, for example it can contain either
address_line_1 or addressline1. This change ensures that it is always
serialized in the same way.
Letters is a mature enough feature now – and one that we’ve been talking
about offering for long enough – that we shouldn’t make people dig
around in the settings.
I think we’d want to wait a bit longer/indefinitely before deciding to
turn it on for existing services across the platform.
- Changed the notification status of letters for letters that DVLA marks
as 'failed' from NOTIFICATION_TECHNICAL_FAILURE to
NOTIFICATION_TEMPORARY_FAILURE.
