This is a belt-and-braces check because the admin app already checks
this. But since we do it for SMS already it makes sense to replicate it
for broadcast templates.
This changes the content length validation of the internal API to match
the validation of the public broadcast API[1].
This removes the length check from JSONSchema, which isn’t sophisticated
enough to deal with things like normalising newlines or handling
different encodings.
The admin app should catch these errors before they’re raised here, but
it’s best to be belt and braces.

This ensures that the log messages both contain broadcast_event id and
broadcast_provider_message id. It also removes the broadcast_event
reference since this isn't particularly useful in helping to find an
event.
It wasn't clear what the ID in the message was. It's not possible to add
more details to the message - we don't create a broadcast message or
event for a link test.
We want to start using Firetext for sending international SMS. They
require us to use a different API key for international SMS because it
requires a new code path to switch the sender ID to something that the
country will accept.
This PR does not include switching the sender of international SMS to
Firetext but sets us up to do so.
This is an extra precaution for the table to ensure data integrity. Since we only update/insert the data using the annual_billing_dao methods the integrity is in tact. I've check the data on preview, staging and prod there are no violations of this unique key.
Also update error message for when someone does not have permissions.
The message referenced approving broadcasts specifically, whereas
people would also see it if they try to cancel or reject
broadcast without permission.
Why we allow platform admins to cancel broadcasts:
we do this so they can react quickly if a broadcast was
approved by accident.
While both of these are integrity errors (since we should never
reach this point in the code + data), this just means the original
method comment is still relevant to what immediately follows it.
Since the checks are only performed in one place we can easily take
extra care to ensure this in the tests, noting that we don't need to
do any additional setup, except if no exception is raised - I've left
these tests as-is, to avoid doing more setup.
Note that we still check the happy path for when a provider message is
already sending - just in a different test [1].

This mirrors the check we do for jobs, which are also a high-impact
task [1]. While this shouldn't be possible, just like other checks
we're adding it here to be doubly certain.

We only actually use this when the data we're working with is in an
unexpected state, which is unrelated to the CBC Proxy. Using this
name also means we can re-use this exception in the next commits.
Note that we may still care if a broadcast message has expired, since
it's not expected that someone would send one in this condition.
`check_if_letters_still_in_created`
The message to Zendesk includes a list of notification ids, this isn't
really necessary and is included in the run book. Creation of the
Zendesk ticket can fail if the message is too long, removing the list of
ids can prevent that from happening.
Celery's apply_async function accepts 'kwargs' as (get ready to be
confused) either a positional argument, or a keyword argument:
Positional: apply_async(['args'], {'kw': 'args'})
Keyword: apply_async(args=['args'], kwargs={'kw': 'args'})
We rely on the positional form in at least one place [1]. This fixes
the overload of apply_async to cope with both forms, and continue to
pass through any other (confusion time again) keyword args to super(),
such as queue="queue".
Note that we've also decided to stop accepting other positional args,
since this is unnecessarily confusing, and we don't currently rely on
it in our code. This stops it creeping in in future.

We only want to send a broadcast if the broadcast message is not stubbed
and the service is live at the point at which the broadcast event should
be created. This is to prevent the situation where a broadcast service is
switched to live / trial mode in between the message being created and
approved (we log an error if this happens).
A stubbed broadcast message with a trial mode service at the point of
approval is not an issue - trial mode services can approve their own
broadcasts. In this situation, we don't create the broadcast event but
also don't need to log an error.
If we're not going to send a broadcast, we don't need to create the
BroadcastEvent in the database. The BroadcastMessage contains all the
data we need - the BroadcastEvent is not used.
Not creating the event when we won't send the broadcast (e.g. when the
broadcast message was created when the service was in trial mode) adds
an extra layer of security.
Introduce a contextmanger function to handle exceptions and nested
transactions. Using the nested_transaction will start a
nested transaction with `db.session.begin_nested`, once the nested
transaction is complete the commit will happen.
`@transactional` has been updated to commit unless in a nested
transaction.
db update/insert.
Using a savepoint for the multiple transactions allows us to rollback if
there is an error when executing the second db transaction.
However, this does add a bit of complexity. Developers need to manage
the db session when calling multiple nested tranactions.
Unit tests have been added to test this functionality and some end to
end tests have been done to make sure all transactions are rollback if
there is an exception while executing the transaction.
the default free allowance for the organisation type.
The update/insert for the default free allowance is done in a separate
transaction. Updates to services need to happen in a transaction to
trigger the insert into the ServicesHistory table. For that reason the
call to set_default_free_allowance_for_service is done after the service
is updated.
I've added a try/except around the set_default_free_allowance_for_service call to ensure we still get the update to the service but get an exception log if the update to annual_billing fails. I believe it's important to preserve the update to the service in the unlikely event that the annual_billing upsert fails.
This app will replace the `notify-api-sms-callbacks` app as it is an app
that handles receipts, not callbacks.
After this and the corresponding concourse PR is merged and deployed (at which
point we will have two apps sharing the traffic) we can then put in PRs
to remove the `notify-api-sms-callbacks` app.
There is a chance it could all be done as a single PR (or at least one
for the API and one for the concourse pipelines) but I'm playing it safe
and doing it as a very clear two step process just in case.
