Because the `<reference>` field of a `cancel` message can contain an
arbitrary number of items it’s possible for it to reference more than
one current alert.
In this case it is ambiguous which alert should be cancelled, so we
should raise a custom error.
This will help people know that they have to manually go into Notify and
figure out which alert(s) to cancel there.
The XML for an alerts requires a `<description>` field. The XML for
a `<cancel>` may have a `<description>` field populated (although we
ignore the contents) but it may also be empty.
This commit updates the schema to leave the all the validation to the
view layer, which can decide when or when not to validate the content of
the `<description>` field.
References are optional, and we fixed errors when they are not provided
in bbc444699a
This commit amends the tests so that they cover the `Alert` message type
as well as the `Cancel` (which is already covered).
If someone tries to cancel a broadcast but the references don’t match
and existing broadcast we correctly return a 404.
If they don’t provide any references then we get an exception. This
commit catches the missing references and returns a 400. I think this
is more appropriate because it’s malformed request, rather than a
well-formed request that doesn’t match our data. It also lets us write a
more specific and helpful error message.
If the reference from cancel CAP XML we received via API does not
match with any existing broadcast, return 404.
Do the same if service id doesn't match.
Also refactor code to cancel broadcast out into separate function
It should be a separate function that is only called by create_broadcast
function. This will prevent create_broadcast from becoming too
big and complex and doing too many things.
If a polygon is smaller than the largest polygon in our dataset of
simplified polygons then we’re only throwing away useful detail by
simplifying it.
We should still simplify larger polygons as a fallback, to avoid sending
anything to the CBC that we’re not sure it will like.
The thresholds here are low: we can raise them as we test and experiment
more.

The maximum content count of a broadcast varies depending on its
encoding, so we can’t simply validate it against a schema. This commit
moves to using the validation from `notifications-utils`, and raising a
custom error response.
We don’t support these methods at the moment. Instead we were just
ignoring the `msgType` field, so issuing one of these commands would
cause a new alert to be broadcast 🙃
We might want to support `Cancel` in the future, but for now let’s
reject anything that isn’t `Alert` (CAP terminology for the initial
broadcast).
This commit makes the existing endpoint also accept CAP XML, should the
appropriate `Content-Type` header be set.
It uses the translation code we added in a previous commit to convert
the CAP to a dict. We can then validate that dict against with the JSON
schema to ensure it’s something we can work with.
