This is being done for the PaaS migration to allow us to keep traffic coming in whilst we migrate the database.
uses the same tasks as the CSV uploaded notifications. Simple changes to not persist the notification, and call into a different task.
There are three authentication methods:
- requires_no_auth - public endpoint that does not require an Authorisation header
- requires_auth - public endpoints that need an API key in the Authorisation header
- requires_admin_auth - private endpoint that requires an Authorisation header which contains the API key for the defined as the client admin user
This will transform each notification in a job to a row in a file.
The file is then uploaded to S3.
The files will later be aggregated by the notifications-ftp app to send to dvla.
The method to upload the file to S3 should be pulled into notifications-utils package.
It is the same method used in notifications-admin.
ready to send == we have created a dvla file in S3, the job id is in the file name
sent to dvla == we have created an aggregate dvla file to send for the day and have sent the file via sftp
