- uses the reference field on the notifications table to store a 16char random string used to cross reference DVLA letters back to the notification
- used as letter barcode does not have space for a UUID notification id
Depends on https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-utils/pull/149
Renamed the numeric_id to notification_reference in utils and changed validation rules to match this
Note also the persist_notification method set "reference" to be "client_reference" which is confusing and they are different things, so fixed this too.
Problem: we were sending the first line of the address in the
`TO_NAME_2` field. This meant that they couldn’t do any PAF lookups with
it, because it wasn’t where they were expecting.
The first line of the address is the second line of what our users give
us. We need to give this to DVLA as the _third_ line of the address
output, which they call `TO_ADDRESS_LINE_1`.
- previously this was unbounded, so it got all jobs older then 7 days. In excess of 75,000 🔥
- this meant that the job took (a) a long time and (b) a lot memory and (c) doing the same thing every day
These changes mean that the job has a 2 day eligible window for jobs, minimising the number of eligible jobs in a run, whilst still retaining some leeway in event if it failing one night.
In principle the job runs early morning on a given day. The previous 7 days are left along, and then the previous 2 days worth of files are deleted:
so:
runs on
31st
30,29,28,27,26,25,24 are ignored
23,22 jobs here have files deleted
21 and earlier are ignored.
Whatever a user has entered for their service’s contact block should
appear in the right place in the file we give to DVLA.
The work to output in the right fields in the DVLA file has already been
done. We just weren’t passing it through. This commit passes it through.
Extends the test to make sure that the thing that builds each line of
the file is getting called with the right template, personalisation and
numeric ID. Will be helpful the more complicated the call to the
template gets.
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.
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.
* Add notify user id in config
* Add dao method to get provider history versions along with tests
* BUG: Provider switching did not handle case where priorities were equal. This
* adds a fix to properly cover this case along with tests
