Subject: [PATCH 10/75] feat!: make Express dependency optional for edge
 environment compatibility (#71)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

# fix: make Express dependency optional for edge environment
compatibility

## Summary

- Move A2AExpressApp to separate module at server/express/
- Remove A2AExpressApp from main server exports to avoid forcing Express
import
- Move express to peerDependencies and devDependencies
- Remove unused cors and body-parser dependencies entirely
- Add new package.json export for ./server/express
- Update import statements in samples and documentation
- Enables usage in Cloudflare Workers, Vercel Edge, and other non-Node
environments
- A2AExpressApp uses express.json() which is built into Express, making
body-parser unnecessary
- cors is not used by the library and is an application-level concern
developers should add themselves
- Only express remains as a peerDependency, accurately reflecting actual
requirements

Fixes #69 - Express dependency breaks edge environments

## Description

Thank you for opening a Pull Request!
Before submitting your PR, there are a few things you can do to make

Fixes #69 🦕

## Problem

The A2A SDK had a hard dependency on Express.js that prevented usage in
edge environments like Cloudflare Workers, Vercel Edge Runtime, and
other platforms that don't support Node.js core APIs.

**Issues identified:**
- 🚨 **Hard Express dependency** - `A2AExpressApp` was exported from main
server module, forcing Express import even when not used
- 📦 **Bloated installs** - Express and unused dependencies (cors,
body-parser) were required for all users
- 🚫 **Edge incompatibility** - Broke deployment to Cloudflare Workers,
Vercel Edge, and similar platforms
- ⚡ **Performance impact** - Unnecessary bundle size for non-Express
users
- 🗑️ **Unused dependencies** - cors and body-parser were listed but not
actually used by the library

## Solution

### 1. Modularized Express Integration
- ✅ Moved `A2AExpressApp` to separate `src/server/express/` module
- ✅ Removed Express exports from main `src/server/index.ts`
- ✅ Created dedicated export path: `"./server/express"`

### 2. Cleaned Up Dependencies
```json
{
  "dependencies": {
    "uuid": "^11.1.0"
  },
  "peerDependencies": {
    "express": "^4.21.2"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@types/express": "^4.17.23",
    "express": "^4.21.2"
  }
}
```

**Key dependency decisions:**
- ✅ **express**: Required as peerDependency - actually used by
`A2AExpressApp`
- ❌ **body-parser**: Removed entirely - `A2AExpressApp` uses
`express.json()` instead
- ❌ **cors**: Removed entirely - not used by library, application-level
concern

### 3. Updated Package Exports
```json
{
  "./server/express": {
    "types": "./dist/server/express/index.d.ts",
    "import": "./dist/server/express/index.js",
    "require": "./dist/server/express/index.cjs"
  }
}
```

## Breaking Changes & Migration

### Before (❌ Problematic)
```typescript
import { A2AExpressApp } from "@a2a-js/sdk/server"; // Forces Express dependency
```

### After (✅ Clean)
```typescript
// Core server functionality (no Express dependency)
import { DefaultRequestHandler, AgentExecutor } from "@a2a-js/sdk/server";

// Express integration (optional, only when needed)
import { A2AExpressApp } from "@a2a-js/sdk/server/express";
```

**For Express users, install peer dependency:**
```bash
npm install express
```

**For users who need CORS support, add it to your Express app:**
```bash
npm install cors
```

```typescript
import express from 'express';
import cors from 'cors';
import { A2AExpressApp } from "@a2a-js/sdk/server/express";

const app = express();
app.use(cors()); // Add CORS at application level
// ... rest of your Express setup
```

## Benefits

| Benefit | Before | After |
|---------|--------|-------|
| **Edge compatibility** | ❌ Broken | ✅ Works |
| **Bundle size** | ~2MB+ Express deps | Minimal core |
| **Install size** | All deps required | Express optional |
| **Developer experience** | Forced dependency | Explicit choice |
| **Dependency accuracy** | Unused deps included | Only required deps |

## Dependency Analysis

### Why body-parser was removed:
- `A2AExpressApp` uses `express.json()` which is built into Express
4.16+
- No import statements found for `body-parser` in the codebase
- Listing it as a peerDependency forced unnecessary installations

### Why cors was removed:
- No import statements found for `cors` in the codebase
- CORS is an application-level concern that developers should configure
themselves
- Different applications have different CORS requirements
- Keeping it as a dependency misrepresented the library's actual
requirements

## Testing

- ✅ **All existing tests pass** (15/15)
- ✅ **Build succeeds** with new modular structure
- ✅ **Backward compatibility** maintained for core functionality
- ✅ **Express functionality** preserved when imported from new path

## Files Changed

- **`package.json`** - Updated exports and cleaned up dependency
structure
- **`src/server/index.ts`** - Removed `A2AExpressApp` export
- **`src/server/express/`** - New modular Express integration
- **`README.md`** - Updated import examples
- **`src/samples/agents/movie-agent/index.ts`** - Updated to use new
import paths

## Impact

This change enables the A2A SDK to be used in:
- ✅ Cloudflare Workers
- ✅ Vercel Edge Runtime
- ✅ Deno Deploy
- ✅ Any edge/serverless environment
- ✅ Traditional Node.js servers (unchanged experience)

The dependency cleanup also:
- 🎯 **Accurately represents requirements** - only lists dependencies
actually used
- 💰 **Reduces install overhead** - consumers don't install unused
packages
- 🔧 **Improves flexibility** - developers choose their own CORS
configuration

+### For Server Usage
+
+If you plan to use the A2A server functionality (A2AExpressApp), you'll also need to install Express as it's a peer dependency:
+
+```bash
+npm install express
+```
+
 You can also find JavaScript samples [here](https://github.com/google-a2a/a2a-samples/tree/main/samples/js).
 
 ## A2A Server
 
 This directory contains a TypeScript server implementation for the Agent-to-Agent (A2A) communication protocol, built using Express.js.
 
+**Note:** Express is a peer dependency for server functionality. Make sure to install it separately:
+```bash
+npm install express

+ * - After the server returns a response, the shouldRetryWithHeaders() function is called.  Usually this
+ *   function responds to a 401 or 403 response, but that is an implementation detail of the AuthenticationHandler.
+ * - If the shouldRetryWithHeaders() function returns new headers, then the request should retried with the provided
+ *   revised headers.  These provisional headers may, or may not, be optimistically stored for subsequent requests -
+ *   that is an implementation detail of the AuthenticationHandler.
+ * - If the request is successful and the onSuccessfulRetry() is defined, then the onSuccessfulRetry() function is
+ *   called with the headers that were used to successfully complete the request.  This callback provides an
+ *   opportunity to save the headers for subsequent requests if they were not already saved.
  * 
- * 1. First HTTP request adds the headers from the headers() function to the request.  These headers
- *    may contain an Authorization header with an Agentic JWT, or they might not if no JWT based session has 
- *    been established.  It is possible the headers() function will return a cached Authorization header
- *    that has become invalid
- * 2. For every HTTP response (even 200s) the shouldRetryWithHeaders() function is called.  A server
- *    that requires authentication and for which no Authentication header or an invalid Authentication
- *    header was provided, may return a 401 along with a WWW-Authenticate header that includes a Universal
- *    Authentication challenge.
- * 3. The shouldRetryWithHeaders() function, when a new Authorization token is deemed necessary (such as a 401), 
- *    may use private keys to sign the challenge from the first HTTP request and return the signed JWT
- *    as an Authorization header.
- * 4. The HTTP request is retried with the new Authorization header
- * 5. If the HTTP request is successful, then onSuccessfulRetry() is called (if defined) to signal the
- *    authentication was accepted by the server and can be cached for subsequent requests.
