Retrieve decentralized exchange overviews for a specific blockchain, including volume summaries and historical data, to analyze DEX performance and activity.

Instructions

GET /api/overview/dexs/{chain}

List all dexs along with summaries of their volumes and dataType history data filtering by chain.

    chain: chain name (e.g., 'ethereum')
    exclude_total_data_chart: true to exclude aggregated chart from response
    exclude_total_data_chart_breakdown: true to exclude broken down chart from response

Implementation Reference

  • The main handler function decorated with @mcp.tool(), implementing the logic to fetch DEX overview data for a specific chain from the DefiLlama API using the make_request helper. Includes input parameters with type hints serving as schema and comprehensive docstring.
    @mcp.tool()
    async def get_dex_overview_by_chain(
        chain: str,
        exclude_total_data_chart: bool = True,
        exclude_total_data_chart_breakdown: bool = True
    ) -> str:
        """GET /api/overview/dexs/{chain}
        
        List all dexs along with summaries of their volumes and dataType history data filtering by chain.
        
        Parameters:
            chain: chain name (e.g., 'ethereum')
            exclude_total_data_chart: true to exclude aggregated chart from response
            exclude_total_data_chart_breakdown: true to exclude broken down chart from response
        """
        params = {
            'excludeTotalDataChart': str(exclude_total_data_chart).lower(),
            'excludeTotalDataChartBreakdown': str(exclude_total_data_chart_breakdown).lower()
        }
        result = await make_request('GET', f'/api/overview/dexs/{chain}', params)
        return str(result)
  • The @mcp.tool() decorator registers the get_dex_overview_by_chain function as an MCP tool.
    @mcp.tool()
  • Docstring providing API endpoint description, parameters, and usage examples, functioning as input/output schema documentation.
    """GET /api/overview/dexs/{chain}
    
    List all dexs along with summaries of their volumes and dataType history data filtering by chain.
    
    Parameters:

        exclude_total_data_chart: true to exclude aggregated chart from response
        exclude_total_data_chart_breakdown: true to exclude broken down chart from response
    """
  • Shared helper function used by get_dex_overview_by_chain and other tools to perform HTTP requests to the DefiLlama API.
    async def make_request(method: str, endpoint: str, params: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None) -> Any:
        """Make a request to the DefiLlama API."""
        try:
            response = await client.request(method, endpoint, params=params)
            response.raise_for_status()
            return response.json()
        except Exception as e:
            return f"Error: {str(e)}"
