# notifications-api
|
|
Notifications api
|
|
Application for the notification api.
|
|
|
|
Read and write notifications/status queue.
|
|
Get and update notification status.
|
|
|
|
## Setting Up
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
mkvirtualenv -p /usr/local/bin/python3 notifications-api
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Creating the environment.sh file. Replace [unique-to-environment] with your something unique to the environment. Your AWS credentials should be set up for notify-tools (the development/CI AWS account).
|
|
|
|
Create a local environment.sh file containing the following:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
echo "
|
|
export SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI='postgresql://localhost/notification_api'
|
|
export SECRET_KEY='secret-key'
|
|
export DANGEROUS_SALT='dangerous-salt'
|
|
export NOTIFY_ENVIRONMENT="development"
|
|
export ADMIN_CLIENT_SECRET='notify-secret-key'
|
|
export ADMIN_BASE_URL='http://localhost:6012'
|
|
export FROM_NUMBER='development'
|
|
export MMG_URL="https://api.mmg.co.uk/json/api.php"
|
|
export MMG_API_KEY='MMG_API_KEY'
|
|
export LOADTESTING_API_KEY="FIRETEXT_SIMULATION_KEY"
|
|
export FIRETEXT_API_KEY="FIRETEXT_ACTUAL_KEY"
|
|
export STATSD_PREFIX="FAKE_PREFIX"
|
|
export NOTIFICATION_QUEUE_PREFIX="PREFIX-TO-IDENTIFY-SQS-QUEUE"
|
|
"> environment.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
NOTE: The SECRET_KEY and DANGEROUS_SALT should match those in the [notifications-admin](https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-admin) app.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Also note the unique prefix for the queue names. This prevents clashing with others queues in shared amazon environment and using a prefix enables filtering by queue name in the SQS interface.
|
|
|
|
Install Postgresql
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
brew install postgres
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## To run the application
|
|
|
|
You need to run the api application and a local celery instance.
|
|
|
|
There are two run scripts for running all the necessary parts.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
scripts/run_app.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
scripts/run_celery.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
scripts/run_celery_beat.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## To test the application
|
|
|
|
First, ensure that `scripts/boostrap.sh` has been run, as it creates the test database.
|
|
|
|
Then simply run
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
That will run pep8 for code analysis and our unit test suite. If you wish to run our functional tests, instructions can be found in the
|
|
[notifications-functional-test](https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-functional-test) repository.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## To remove functional test data
|
|
|
|
NOTE: There is assumption that both the server name prefix and user name prefix are followed by a uuid.
|
|
The script will search for all services/users with that prefix and only remove it if the prefix is followed by a uuid otherwise it will be skipped.
|
|
|
|
Locally
|
|
```
|
|
python application.py purge_functional_test_data -u <functional tests user name prefix> # Remove the user and associated services.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On the server
|
|
```
|
|
python server_commands.py purge_functional_test_data -u <functional tests user name prefix> # Remove the user and associated services.
|
|
```
|
