we add a row in AnnualBilling table whenever a new service is created,
and our billing code assumes this is done. Yet when we were writing
some of the tests, this was not a thing yet, so now we are updating
those tests so they reflect our system well.

Daily volumes report: total volumes across the platform aggregated by whole business day (bst_date)
Volumes by service report: total volumes per service aggregated by the date range given.
NB: start and end dates are inclusive
If a service has not sent any SMS for the financial year the free allowance was showing up as 0 rather than the number in annual billing. The query has been updated to use an outer join so that the free allow will be returned when there is no ft_billing.
There is a potential performance enhancement to only return the data for the services of the organisation in the `fetch_sms_free_allowance_remainder_until_date` subquery. I will investigate in a subsequent PR.
We don’t store everything that comes in the CAP XML when someone creates
a broadcast via the API.
One thing we do store is `<identifier>` (in a column called `reference`)
which is a unique (to the external system) identifier for the broadcast.
We show this in the front end instead of the template name, because
broadcasts created from the API don’t use templates.
However this ID isn’t very friendly – the Environment Agency just supply
a UUID.
The Environment Agency also populate the `<event>` field with some human
readable text, for example:
> 013 Issue Severe Flood Warning EA
(013 is an area code which will be meaningful to the Flood Warning
Service team)
We should show this in the UI instead of the reference. The first step
towards this is storing it in the database and returning it in the REST
endpoints.
Later we can have the admin app prefer `cap_event` over `reference`,
where `cap_event` is present.
We can’t backfill this data because we don’t keep a copy of the original
XML.
Seems like `<event>` is a mandatory property of `<info>`, so we don’t
need to worry about the field being missing (`<info>` is optional in
CAP but we require it because it contains stuff like the areas which
we need in order to send out the broadcast`).

This switches a number of fixtures to use "sample_user", which is
equivalent to calling the previous "create_user" function when it
used to default the email to "notify@...".
This is necessary until:
- The Admin app is using the new "areas(_2)" format to store and
retrieve data.
- We've migrated all existing broadcast messages to use the new
format.
Note that "areas" / "ids" isn't actually used for anything except
printing out the PagerDuty message - it's not sent to the proxy [1].

added some simple validation to the delete endpoint for sanity, but
generally my assumption is that more validation will happen on the admin
side.
noteably im not checking whether the credentials are duplicated, nor is
there a uniqueness constraint in the database - I'm not sure if the
credential blob will always reliably be equivalent, and I believe the
browser should hopefully take care of dupes.
Names of services and orgs were confusing, and variable setting
was done in a way that made it easy to introduce errors.
Now hopefully it is more readable and more error-proof.
Retry tasks if they fail to send a broadcast event. Note that each task
tries the regular proxy and the failover proxy for that provider. This
runs a bit differently than our other retries:
Retry with exponential backoff. Our other tasks retry with a fixed delay
of 5 minutes between tries. If we can't send a broadcast, we want to try
immediately. So instead, implement an exponential backoff (1, 2, 4, 8,
... seconds delay). We can't delay for longer than 310 seconds due to
visibility timeout settings in SQS, so cap the delay at that amount.
Normally we give up retrying after a set amount of retries (often 4
hours). As broadcast content is much more important than normal
notifications, we don't ever want to give up on sending them to phones...
...UNLESS WE DO!
Sometimes we do want to give up sending a broadcast though! Broadcasts
have an expiry time, when they stop showing up on peoples devices, so if
that has passed then we don't need to send the broadcast out.
Broadcast events can also be superceded by updates or cancels. Check
that the event is the most recent event for that broadcast message, if
not, give up, as we don't want to accidentally send out two conflicting
events for the same message.
we want to be able to create broadcast messages without templates. To
start with, these will come from the API, but in future we may want to
let people create via the admin interface without creating a template
too.
populate a non-nullable content field with the values supplied via the
template (or supplied directly if via api).
Flake8 Bugbear checks for some extra things that aren’t code style
errors, but are likely to introduce bugs or unexpected behaviour. A
good example is having mutable default function arguments, which get
shared between every call to the function and therefore mutating a value
in one place can unexpectedly cause it to change in another.
This commit enables all the extra warnings provided by Flake8 Bugbear,
except for:
- the line length one (because we already lint for that separately)
- B903 Data class should either be immutable or use `__slots__` because
this seems to false-positive on some of our custom exceptions
- B902 Invalid first argument 'cls' used for instance method because
some SQLAlchemy decorators (eg `declared_attr`) make things that
aren’t formally class methods take a class not an instance as their
first argument
It disables:
- _B306: BaseException.message is removed in Python 3_ because I think
our exceptions have a custom structure that means the `.message`
attribute is still present
Matches the work done in other repos:
- https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-admin/pull/3172/files
replacing get_earlier_provider_messages. The old function returned the
previous references for earlier events for a broadcast_message. However,
these depend on the message sent to a specific provider, so the function
needs to change. It now takes in a provider, and only returns
broadcast_provider_messages sent to that provider. If there are earlier
broadcast_events without a provider_message for the chosen provider, it
raises an exception - you cannot cancel a message if all the previous
events have not been created properly (as we wouldn't know what
references to cancel).
use the new endpoint from cbc proxy. create a new task that just
serializes the event and sends it across rather than sending a template
and the broadcast message.
some changes to serialize to make it json friendly etc. it also expects
sent_at and transmitted_finishes_at to always be set (we set them in the
code but don't enforce it n the DB right now), as they're required by
utils template. not sure whether we'll update db constraints to be more
strict or utils template to be more permissive just yet, wait until we
find out more about the requirements of the CBCs we integrate with.
Reflects the new name of the feature.
Note that the name of the underlying table hasn’t changed because it’s
explicitly set to `service_whitelist`. Changing this will be a more
involved process.
spent WAY too long trying to figure out why my user wasn't being created
in tests. the user isn't created if their email already exists in the
system, but email isn't a required field when creating!
Note: I tried just removing the check to see if the user already exists,
but 16 tests try and create duplicate users. I'm of the belief we should
just fix all those tests but I didn't have the energy for it right now
Usage for all services is a platform admin report that groups letters by
postage. We want it to show `europe` and `rest-of-world` letters under a
single category of `international`, so this updates the query to do
that and to order appropriately.
Years ago we started to implement a way to schedule a notification. We hit a problem but we never came up with a good solution and the feature never made it back to the top of the priority list.
This PR removes the code for scheduled_for. There will be another PR to drop the scheduled_notifications table and remove the schedule_notifications service permission
Unfortunately, I don't think we can remove the `scheduled_for` attribute from the notification.serialized method because out clients might fail if something is missing. For now I have left it in but defaulted the value to None.
So we keep a record of who first uploaded a list it’s better to archive
a list than completely delete it.
The list in the database doesn’t contain any recipient info so this
isn’t a change to what data we’re retaining.
This means updating the endpoints that get contact lists to exclude ones
that are archived.
This was one of things we de-scoped when we first shipped this feature.
In order to safely delete a list, we first need to make sure any jobs
aren’t referencing it.
The insert_notification_history_delete_notifications function uses a temp table to store the data to insert and delete. This will save extra queries while performing the insert and delete operations.
The function is written in such a way that if the task is stop while processing when it's started up again it will just pick up where it left off.
I've made a decision to delete all test data in one query, I don't anticipate a problem with that.
The performance of this might also be better than last nights test because we are inserting everything we need for the NotificationHistory insert, so we don't need the join to Notifications to perform the insert.
- Table to store meta data for the emergency contact list for a service.
- Endpoint for fetching contact lists for service
- Endpoint for saving contact list for service.
The list will be stored in S3. The service will then be able to send emergency announcements to staff.
