As a note, this change by its nature ends up running some validation on addresses. If no actual addresses match the address text, it fails. If multiple addresses match the address text, it also fails. I think a good next step for me if we want to merge this in is to implement a way for ambiguous addresses to be resolved over sms and in the webform (#23), and for addresses which don't match any actual locations to properly handle their errors and ask for a retry. This way, we can confirm we have the correct address/location before sending out an alert. |
