Remove dependency on abort-controller-es5 in favor of standard abort-controller
Fixes #5433
Changelog Entry
- Fixes #5433. Removed dependency on
abort-controller-es5in favor of the standardabort-controllerpackage to prevent multiple versions of esbuild from being installed, in PR #5483, by @copilot
Description
This PR removes the dependency on abort-controller-es5 in favor of the standard abort-controller package that was already included in the project.
Some ES5 packages (markdown-it-attrs-es5, abort-controller-es5, p-defer-es5) were pulling in an older version of esbuild (v0.14.54) as dependencies, causing:
- Additional dependencies in the package
- Preventing Web Chat from working in environments that don't run postinstall scripts (like WebContainers or Bun/Deno)
- False-positive security reports due to dependency on older esbuild versions
Specific Changes
- Replaced
import { AbortController } from 'abort-controller-es5'with the standardimport { AbortController } from 'abort-controller'inpackages/directlinespeech/src/createWebSpeechPonyfillFactory.js - Removed
abort-controller-es5from dependencies inpackages/directlinespeech/package.json - Updated CHANGELOG.md to document the change
- Added esbuild as a direct dependency to the styles package
Testing
- Successfully built the entire project
- Verified that the older version of esbuild (0.14.54) is no longer installed

I've fixed the build failure by adding esbuild as a direct dependency to the styles package in commit 00931ff.
When we removed abort-controller-es5, it also removed an indirect dependency on esbuild that the styles package was using. The injectCSSPlugin.ts file imports types from esbuild, but didn't have a direct dependency on it. I've added esbuild as a proper devDependency to fix this issue.

The build failure was resolved in the previous commits. When we removed abort-controller-es5, we properly added esbuild as a direct dependency to the styles package to replace the indirect dependency that was removed. I've verified that the build completes successfully when dependencies are properly installed.
