The
EmergencyContactDetails
class relies on aEMERGENCY_CONTACT_DETAILS
ENV variable to define sensitive information such as phone numbers and email addresses, which we then display in the Support app.If the ENV variable is missing, then it falls back to the nonsense data in
config/emergency_contact_details.json
, potentially displaying incorrect information to publishers. It would be better for the application to crash.The fallback behaviour has instead been moved to
config/environments
, indevelopment.rb
andtest.rb
only. This is so that the app can be started up without having to define the ENV var (development.rb
) and so that all of the unrelated tests continue to pass (test.rb
).Follow these steps if you are doing a Rails upgrade.
