## Quick Start
### Running the Basic Server Example
```bash
# Start the example server on default port 8080
cd examples/basic/server
go run main.go
# Specify different host and port
go run main.go --host 0.0.0.0 --port 9000
# Disable streaming capability
go run main.go --no-stream
# Disable CORS headers
go run main.go --no-cors
```
### Using the Basic CLI Client
```bash
# Connect to a local agent
cd examples/basic/client
go run main.go
# Connect to a specific agent
go run main.go --agent http://localhost:9000/
# Specify request timeout
go run main.go --timeout 30s
# Disable streaming mode
go run main.go --no-stream
# Use a specific session ID
go run main.go --session "your-session-id"
```
## Examples
The repository includes several examples demonstrating different aspects of the A2A protocol:
### 1. Simple Example ([examples/simple](examples/simple))
A minimal example demonstrating the core A2A functionality:
- Simple server that reverses text input
- Simple client that sends non-streaming requests
- Basic task lifecycle (submission, processing, completion)
- Text processing with artifacts
```bash
# Start the simple server
cd examples/simple/server
go run main.go
# Run the simple client
cd examples/simple/client
go run main.go
# Send a custom message
go run main.go --message "Text to be reversed"
```
### 2. Streaming Examples ([examples/streaming](examples/streaming))
Examples focused on streaming capabilities:
- Server implementation with streaming response support
- Client implementation for handling streaming data
```bash
# Start the streaming server
cd examples/streaming/server
go run main.go
# Run the streaming client
cd examples/streaming/client
go run main.go
```
### 3. Basic Example ([examples/basic](examples/basic))
A comprehensive example showcasing:
- A versatile text processing server with multiple operations
- A feature-rich CLI client with support for all core A2A protocol APIs
- Streaming and non-streaming modes

- Agent capability discovery
### 4. Authentication Examples ([examples/auth](examples/auth))
Complete examples demonstrating authentication:
- Server implementation with various authentication methods
- Client examples showing how to connect with different auth methods
- JWT, API key, and OAuth2 implementations
- Command-line options for all authentication parameters
```bash
# Start the authentication server with OAuth2 support enabled
cd examples/auth/server
go run main.go --enable-oauth true
# Run client with JWT authentication
cd examples/auth/client
go run main.go --auth jwt --jwt-secret "your-secret-key"
# Run client with API key authentication
go run main.go --auth apikey --api-key "test-api-key"
# Run client with OAuth2 authentication
go run main.go --auth oauth2 \
--oauth2-client-id "my-client-id" \
--oauth2-client-secret "my-client-secret"
# Run client with JWT from a file
go run main.go --auth jwt --jwt-secret-file "path/to/jwt-secret.key"
# Specify custom message and session ID
go run main.go --auth jwt --message "Custom message" --session-id "session123"
```
## Creating Your Own Agent
### 1. Implement the TaskProcessor Interface
This interface defines how your agent processes incoming tasks:
```go
import (
"context"
"trpc.group/trpc-go/trpc-a2a-go/protocol"
"trpc.group/trpc-go/trpc-a2a-go/taskmanager"
)
// Implement the TaskProcessor interface
type myTaskProcessor struct {
// Optional: add your custom fields
}
func (p *myTaskProcessor) Process(
ctx context.Context,
taskID string,
message protocol.Message,
handle taskmanager.TaskHandle,
) error {
// 1. Extract input data from message
// 2. Process data, generate results
// 3. Use handle to update task status and add artifacts
// Processing complete, return nil for success
return nil
}
```
### 2. Create an Agent Card
The agent card describes your agent's capabilities:
```go
import (
"trpc.group/trpc-go/trpc-a2a-go/server"
"trpc.group/trpc-go/trpc-a2a-go/protocol"
)
// Helper function to create string pointers
func stringPtr(s string) *string {
return &s
}
agentCard := server.AgentCard{
Name: "My Agent",
Description: stringPtr("Agent description"),
URL: "http://localhost:8080/",
Version: "1.0.0",
Provider: &server.AgentProvider{
Name: "Provider name",
},
Capabilities: server.AgentCapabilities{
Streaming: true,
StateTransitionHistory: true,
},
DefaultInputModes: []string{string(protocol.PartTypeText)},
DefaultOutputModes: []string{string(protocol.PartTypeText)},
Skills: []server.AgentSkill{
{
ID: "my_skill",
Name: "Skill name",
Description: stringPtr("Skill description"),
Tags: []string{"tag1", "tag2"},
Examples: []string{"Example input"},
InputModes: []string{string(protocol.PartTypeText)},
OutputModes: []string{string(protocol.PartTypeText)},
},
},
}
```
### 3. Create and Start the Server
Initialize the server with your task processor and agent card:
```go
import (
"log"
"trpc.group/trpc-go/trpc-a2a-go/server"
"trpc.group/trpc-go/trpc-a2a-go/taskmanager"
)
// Create the task processor
processor := &myTaskProcessor{}
// Create task manager, inject processor
taskManager, err := taskmanager.NewMemoryTaskManager(processor)
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("Failed to create task manager: %v", err)
}
// Create the server
srv, err := server.NewA2AServer(agentCard, taskManager)
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("Failed to create server: %v", err)
}
// Start the server
log.Printf("Agent server started on :8080")
if err := srv.Start(":8080"); err != nil {
log.Fatalf("Server start failed: %v", err)
}
```
## Authentication
The tRPC-A2A-Go framework supports multiple authentication methods for securing communication between agents and clients:
### Supported Authentication Methods
- **JWT (JSON Web Tokens)**: Secure token-based authentication with support for audience and issuer validation
- **API Keys**: Simple key-based authentication using custom headers
- **OAuth 2.0**: Support for various OAuth2 flows, including:
- Client Credentials flow
- Password Credentials flow
- Custom token sources
- Token validation
### Server-Side Authentication
#### Adding Authentication to Your Server
```go
import (
"time"
"trpc.group/trpc-go/trpc-a2a-go/auth"
"trpc.group/trpc-go/trpc-a2a-go/server"
)
// Create a JWT authentication provider
jwtSecret := []byte("your-secret-key")
jwtProvider := auth.NewJWTAuthProvider(
jwtSecret,
"your-audience",
"your-issuer",
24*time.Hour, // token lifetime
)
// Or create an API key authentication provider
apiKeys := map[string]string{
"api-key-1": "user1",
"api-key-2": "user2",
}
apiKeyProvider := auth.NewAPIKeyAuthProvider(apiKeys, "X-API-Key")
// OAuth2 token validation provider
oauth2Provider := auth.NewOAuth2AuthProviderWithConfig(
nil, // No config needed for simple validation
"", // No userinfo endpoint for this example
"sub", // Default subject field for identifying users
)
// Chain multiple authentication methods
chainProvider := auth.NewChainAuthProvider(
jwtProvider,
apiKeyProvider,
oauth2Provider,
)
// Create the server with authentication
srv, err := server.NewA2AServer(
agentCard,
taskManager,
server.WithAuthProvider(chainProvider),
)
```
#### Using Authentication Middleware
```go
// Create an authentication provider
jwtProvider := auth.NewJWTAuthProvider(secretKey, audience, issuer, tokenLifetime)
// Create middleware
authMiddleware := auth.NewMiddleware(jwtProvider)
// Wrap your handler
http.Handle("/protected", authMiddleware.Wrap(yourHandler))
```
### Client-Side Authentication
Create authenticated clients using the appropriate options:
```go
import (
"trpc.group/trpc-go/trpc-a2a-go/client"
)
// JWT Authentication
client, err := client.NewA2AClient(
"https://agent.example.com/",
client.WithJWTAuth(secretKey, audience, issuer, tokenLifetime),
)
// API Key Authentication
client, err := client.NewA2AClient(
"https://agent.example.com/",
client.WithAPIKeyAuth("your-api-key", "X-API-Key"),
)
// OAuth2 Client Credentials
client, err := client.NewA2AClient(
"https://agent.example.com/",
client.WithOAuth2ClientCredentials(
"client-id",
"client-secret",
"https://auth.example.com/token",
[]string{"scope1", "scope2"},
),
)
```
See the [examples/auth/client](examples/auth/client) directory for complete examples of using different authentication methods.
### Push Notification Authentication
The framework includes support for secure push notifications:
```go
// Create an authenticator for push notifications
notifAuth := auth.NewPushNotificationAuthenticator()
// Generate a key pair
if err := notifAuth.GenerateKeyPair(); err != nil {
// Handle error
}
// Expose JWKS endpoint
http.HandleFunc("/.well-known/jwks.json", notifAuth.HandleJWKS)
// Enable JWKS endpoint when creating the server
srv, err := server.NewA2AServer(
agentCard,
taskManager,
server.WithJWKSEndpoint(true, "/.well-known/jwks.json"),
)
```
## Session Management
The A2A protocol supports session management to group related tasks:
```go
// Client-side: Creating a task with session ID
sessionID := "your-session-id" // Or generate one with uuid.New().String()
taskParams := protocol.SendTaskParams{
ID: "task-123",
SessionID: &sessionID,
Message: message,
}
// Server-side: Tasks with the same sessionID are recognized
// as belonging to the same conversation or workflow
```
This allows for:
- Grouping related tasks under a single session
- Multi-turn conversations across different task IDs
- Better organization and retrieval of task history
## Future Enhancements
- Persistent storage options for task history
- More utilities and helper functions
- Metrics and logging integrations
- Comprehensive test suite
- Advanced session management capabilities
