Using `+` to concatenate strings isn’t very memory efficient. Not sure
if there are real-world implications for how it’s being used here, but
can’t hurt to use `.join` instead.
Rewriting it as a generator also lets us remove some unneeded variable
assignment.
Before the longer tasks all ran on the hour, at midnight, 1 and 2.
Now we run one at midnight, one at quarter past, half past then at quarter too. Trying to spread the load.
when we made the change to async persist notifications, we forgot to
pass through api_key_id and key_type. in send_sms/email, for legacy
reasons, they default to None/KEY_TYPE_NORMAL, so regardless of what
your api key was set up as, we would send real messages!
TODO: Once the PaaS transition is complete and the task changes are
reverted, remove the api_key_id and key_type params from the send_*
tasks entirely, as those are only called from the csv job flow, and
don't need them
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.
