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';

Since we moved to Dockerised Celery the pycurl guidance should no
longer be necessary and doesn't work on newer Mac M1 machines.
This also adds new guidance for psycopg2, which will hopefully be
temporary (see issue comment).
This makes a few changes to:
- Make local development consistent with our other apps. It's now
faster to start Celery locally since we don't try to build the
image each time - this is usually quick, but unnecessary.
- Add support for connecting to a local Redis instance. Note that
the previous suggestion of "REDIS = True" was incorrect as this
would be turned into the literal string "True".
I've also co-located and extended the recipes in the Makefile to
make them a bit more visible.
This seems to be an issue for several people when we install new
versions of the package. Older versions of the package seem to
be equally affected, so the new need for this is likely related
to us using a newer OS / XCode version.
This is a bit too niche for the README, which should be focussed on
the bare minimum someone needs to know to get started with a repo.
Moving this content to its own doc is consistent with other apps [1]
and gives it more room to grow.

This apps works with v11, but not with v13. Adding '|| true' in the
Makefile means the 'bootstrap' rule can be run multiple times, even
if the DB already exists.
This is more consistent with how we run all other tasks. Note that
the virtual env setup is not generally applicable, and developers
of this repo should follow the guidance in the README.
we don't use it since we wrote our own provider stubs for performance
tests.
this removes it from the api - it's still in the DB and will be
retrieved by queries, but is set to disabled on prod
