mozhno-sdks

name	mozhno-sdks
description	Reference for the Mozhno client SDKs under /sdks — the Java SDK (`sdks/java`, published as `dev.mozhno:mozhno-client-java`) and the JS/TS SDK (`sdks/js`, published as `@mozhno/client-js`). Use when editing SDK code: client lifecycle, local flag evaluation, context/constraint/segment evaluation, polling + metrics batching, and the Spring Boot starter.

Mozhno SDKs

Client SDKs that let apps evaluate feature flags. Layout:

Package	Path	Published as	Runtime
Java SDK	sdks/java	dev.mozhno:mozhno-client-java (Gradle :mozhno-client-java)	JDK 17+ (consumer-facing; not JDK 25)
JS/TS SDK	sdks/js	@mozhno/client-js (ESM + CJS)	Browser + Node

Core principle (both SDKs)

Evaluate locally, fail-closed. The client fetches flag rules once and re-polls on an interval; each isEnabled(...) check is a local, in-memory decision — no network call per check. Metrics are buffered and sent in batches. When a flag is missing or the fetch fails, the SDK returns false / the caller's default (fail-closed) rather than throwing.

Both SDKs support two modes:

• server mode (default): fetch the full flag set and evaluate locally against the context.
• client mode: the server evaluates and returns ready toggles; the SDK just serves them.

Java SDK (sdks/java)

• JDK 17 source/target (broad consumer compatibility — do not raise to 25). Deps kept minimal: jackson-databind, slf4j-api; Spring is compileOnly. Version in build.gradle.
• MozhnoClient interface (fail-closed semantics documented in Javadoc):

  void start();
  void stop();
  boolean isEnabled(String flagKey);                                   // false if not found
  boolean isEnabled(String flagKey, boolean defaultReturn);            // custom default
  boolean isEnabled(String flagKey, MozhnoContext context);            // false if not found
  boolean isEnabled(String flagKey, MozhnoContext context, boolean defaultReturn);
  void addEventListener(EventListener listener);
  

• DefaultMozhnoClient — production impl; FakeMozhnoClient — in-memory impl for consumer tests (no HTTP). Use the interface in application code.
• MozhnoConfig.builder() fields: appName, instanceId, mozhnoUrl, apiKey, contextProvider, fetchTogglesInterval (default 15s), sendMetricsInterval (default 60s), synchronousFetchOnInitialisation (false), disableMetrics (false), environment, proxy.
• MozhnoContext.builder() — userId, custom fields; supplied per call or via MozhnoContextProvider.
• ConstraintEvaluator — local evaluation engine: combines constraints + segments from a flag's Activation (fail-closed if evaluation fails). Keep its logic in lock-step with the server engine and the JS evaluator.
• HttpFeatureFetcher — polls the server for flag rules / posts metrics (Jackson).
• Spring Boot starter: spring/MozhnoAutoConfiguration + MozhnoProperties (@ConfigurationProperties) auto-wire a MozhnoClient from properties. Spring is optional (compileOnly) — the SDK must work without Spring on the classpath.
• Build/test: ./gradlew :mozhno-client-java:check (or make java-sdk-test). Tests use JUnit 5
  • Mockito; see ConstraintEvaluatorTest, FakeMozhnoClientTest, MozhnoConfigTest.

Usage (see root README.md):

var config = MozhnoConfig.builder()
    .appName("my-app").instanceId("instance-1")
    .mozhnoUrl("https://flags.example.com").apiKey("env-abc123").build();
var client = new DefaultMozhnoClient(config);
client.start();
boolean on = client.isEnabled("new-checkout", MozhnoContext.builder().userId("42").build());

JS/TS SDK (sdks/js)

• @mozhno/client-js, type: module, built with Vite to ESM (.mjs) + CJS (.cjs)
  • .d.ts. Tests: Vitest; lint: ESLint; format: Prettier.
• MozhnoClient extends EventEmitter — public API:

  await client.start();                 // bootstrap + initial fetch + start timers
  client.stop();                        // clear timers
  client.isEnabled(flagKey, context?)   // local decision; false if missing (fail-closed)
  client.getVariant(flagKey)            // server-mode only
  client.updateContext(ctx) / client.setContextField(k, v) / client.removeContextField(k)
  

• Config (MozhnoConfig): url, apiKey, appName, environment ('default'), instanceId, refreshInterval (15s), metricsInterval (60s), disableMetrics, mode ('server' | 'client'), bootstrap (seed flags), storageProvider, stickyAnonId (true), context.
• Events (emit): initialized, update, ready, error, warn, sent.
• Targeting key = userId ?? sessionId ?? anonId (sticky anon id persisted in localStorage when stickyAnonId is on; warns once if none present).
• Metrics: buffered as { t, f } counts per flag, flushed each metricsInterval; on send failure the batch is merged back (no loss). Fetch/evaluate use retry backoff [1s, 2s, 4s].
• Public exports (src/index.ts): MozhnoClient, isFlagEnabled, EventEmitter, HttpFetcher, createDefaultStorage, and the type exports. Keep new public API additions in index.ts; isFlagEnabled (evaluation/evaluator.ts) is the shared evaluation function — keep it aligned with the Java ConstraintEvaluator and the server engine.
• Structure: MozhnoClient.ts, types.ts, events.ts, evaluation/evaluator.ts, transport/fetcher.ts, repository/storage.ts.
• Build/test: npm test / npm run build in sdks/js (or make js-sdk-test, make js-sdk-build).

Usage:

import { MozhnoClient } from '@mozhno/client-js';
const client = new MozhnoClient({ url: 'https://flags.example.com', apiKey: 'env-abc123', appName: 'my-app' });
await client.start();
const on = client.isEnabled('new-checkout', { userId: '42' });

Cross-SDK invariants

• Never break fail-closed behavior — a missing flag or a failed fetch must return false / the provided default, never throw out of isEnabled.
• No per-check network I/O — evaluation stays in-memory; only polling and metrics touch the network.
• Keep the three evaluators in sync — server engine (mozhno-core flags/strategy), Java ConstraintEvaluator, and JS isFlagEnabled must agree on constraint/segment/rollout semantics. A change to targeting logic usually needs matching edits in all three.
• No deprecated APIs — target the versions each SDK pins (Java: JDK 17, Jackson/SLF4J from the Boot BOM; JS: the versions in sdks/js/package.json); never call @Deprecated / @deprecated symbols — use the documented replacement.
• License: BUSL-1.1 (source-available); keep the SDKs dependency-light.
