H3: mizanFetch retries 2x on server errors (5xx) and network failures. 200ms/400ms backoff. Mutations NOT retried (not idempotent). H6: refreshContext now uses GET /ctx/<name>/ instead of POST /call/. Context reads go to the context endpoint, not the mutation endpoint. H11: Python cache key derivation normalizes True→"true", False→"false", None→"null" for cross-language HMAC consistency with JavaScript's String() behavior. H13: Forms isValid now checks that all required fields have been touched, not just that touched fields have no errors. M11: execute_function return type updated to include HttpResponseBase for view-path functions. M18: registerContext cleanup uses ?. instead of ! to prevent crash if Map was cleared (already fixed in H2 commit but documenting). 373 Django + 33 React tests pass.

mizan (Python)
Django server functions framework. See the monorepo root for full documentation.
Install
uv add "mizan[channels,allauth] @ git+https://git.impactsoundworks.com/isw/mizan.git#subdirectory=django"
Setup
# settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = ["mizan", ...]
# urls.py
path("api/mizan/", include("mizan.urls"))
# asgi.py (optional, for WebSocket)
from mizan import wrap_asgi
application = wrap_asgi(get_asgi_application())
Define Functions
from mizan.client import client
from mizan.setup.registry import register
from pydantic import BaseModel
class Output(BaseModel):
message: str
@client
def echo(request, text: str) -> Output:
return Output(message=text)
register(echo, "echo")
Register in apps.py:
def ready(self):
import myapp.mizan_clients
Auth
@client(auth=True) # requires authentication
@client(auth='staff') # requires is_staff
@client(auth='superuser') # requires is_superuser
@client(auth=my_callable) # custom check
Contexts
@client(context='global') # fetched once, SSR-hydrated, becomes useCurrentUser()
@client(context='local') # fetched with params, becomes <GreetProvider>
Forms
from mizan.forms import mizanFormMixin, mizanFormMeta
class ContactForm(mizanFormMixin, forms.Form):
mizan = mizanFormMeta(name="contact", title="Contact Us")
name = forms.CharField()
email = forms.EmailField()
def on_submit_success(self, request):
return {"sent": True}
Auto-registers contact.schema, contact.validate, contact.submit. Generates useContactForm() with Zod validation.
Channels
from mizan.channels import ReactChannel
class ChatChannel(ReactChannel):
class Params(BaseModel):
room: str
class DjangoMessage(BaseModel):
text: str
def authorize(self, params):
return self.user.is_authenticated
def group(self, params):
return f"chat_{params.room}"
Generates useChatChannel({ room }).
