the nightly tasks need to run after the create nightly notification
status task - so that test notifications are still there to record
stats for, and to stop the risk of deleting notificaitons part-way
through recording stats for them.
the create_nightly_notification_status task runs at 00:30am UK time,
however this means that in summer datetime.today() will return the
wrong date as the server (which runs on UTC) will run the task at
23:30 (populating the wrong row in the table).
fix this to use nice tz aware functions
make a decorator that pings cronitor before and after each task run.
Designed for use with nightly tasks, so we have visibility if they
fail. We have a bunch of cronitor monitors set up - 5 character keys
that go into a URL that we then make a GET to with a self-explanatory
url path (run/fail/complete).
the cronitor URLs are defined in the credentials repo as a dictionary
of celery task names to URL slugs. If the name passed in to the
decorator isn't in that dict, it won't run.
to use it, all you need to do is call `@cronitor(my_task_name)`
instead of `@notify_celery.task`, and make sure that the task name and
the matching slug are included in the credentials repo (or locally,
json dumped and stored in the CRONITOR_KEYS environment variable)
* Changed update_fact_billing DAO function to update the table with the
real data for postage instead of hard-coding in 'second'.
* Added a test for the create nightly billing task to test that rows
with different postage are being inserted correctly.
Removed the occasionally failing test to check how ft_billing upserts
postage data. This test will be re-added once the postage column has been
added to the primary key.
* Updated the 'fetch_billing_data_for_day' DAO function to take postage into
account
* Updated the 'update_fact_billing' DAO function to insert postage for
new rows. When updating rows which are identical apart from the postage, the
original row will be kept. (This behaviour will change once postage is
added to the primary key - at this point, upserting will add a new row.)
* Also changed some fixtures / test set up functions to take postage
into account
Added the letter_rate table to the list of tables which does not get
deleted after each test run and changed the tests to use the real letter
rates.
Also removed the letter rate DAO since this was only being used in
tests, so was no longer needed.
`created_at` was added previously and made nullable temporarily. This
commit now populates the column, ensures that it will always have a
value, and makes `created_at` non-nullable.
