In response to: [^1].
The stacktrace conveys the same and more information. We don't do
anything different for each exception class, so there's no value
in having three of them over one exception.
I did think about DRYing-up the duplicate exception behaviour into
the base class one. This isn't ideal because the base class would
be making assumptions about how inheriting classes make requests,
which might change with future providers. Although it might be nice
to have more info in the top-level message, we'll still get it in
the stacktrace e.g.
ValueError: Expected 'code' to be '0'
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
app.clients.sms.SmsClientResponseException: SMS client error (Invalid response JSON)
requests.exceptions.ReadTimeout
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
app.clients.sms.SmsClientResponseException: SMS client error (Request failed)

This works in conjunction with the new SMS provider stub [^1].
Local testing:
- Run the migrations to add Reach as an inactive provider.
- Activate the Reach provider locally and deactivate the others.
update provider_details set priority = 100, active = false where notification_type = 'sms';
update provider_details set active = true where identifier = 'reach';
- Tweak your local environment to point at the SMS stub.
export REACH_URL="http://host.docker.internal:6300/reach"
- Start / restart Celery to pick up the config change.
- Send a SMS via the Admin app and see the stub log it.
- Reset your environment so you can send normal SMS.
update provider_details set active = true where notification_type = 'sms';
update provider_details set active = false where identifier = 'reach';

This is enough to update a notification in DB:
1. First create a notification in the UI and sent it.
2. Then reset its attributes to pretend it's for Reach.
update notifications set
sent_at = null,
sent_by = null,
notification_status='sending'
where id='some-uuid';
3. Change "notification_id" to "<some-uuid>" in the code.
4. Call the boilerplate endpoint for Reach callbacks.
curl -X POST localhost:6011/notifications/sms/reach
Interestingly there's no foreign key constraint on "sent_by" in the
DB, so this just works: the notification is updated.
