Node.js Http Server + AI SDK Example

A minimal Node.js HTTP server demonstrating how to use the AI SDK to stream text and custom UI message data over HTTP.

Endpoints

Method	Path	Description
`POST`	`/`	Streams a text response generated with `streamText`.
`POST`	`/stream-data`	Streams a UI message stream that mixes custom data parts with `streamText` output.

From the root of the AI SDK repo, install dependencies:
```
pnpm install
```
Create a .env file in examples/node-http-server/ (copy from .env.example) and add your OpenAI API key:
```
OPENAI_API_KEY="YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY"
```
Start the server from this directory:
```
pnpm dev
```
The server listens on http://localhost:8080.

Stream a text response:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/

Stream custom data alongside generated text:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/stream-data
