Implementation Reference
- src/services/printify-products.ts:71-117 (handler)Core handler function that executes the get_product tool logic: validates selected shop, fetches product details from Printify API client, formats success or error response.export async function getProduct( printifyClient: PrintifyAPI, productId: string ) { try { // Validate shop is selected const currentShop = printifyClient.getCurrentShop(); if (!currentShop) { throw new Error('No shop is currently selected. Use the list-shops and switch-shop tools to select a shop.'); } // Get product const product = await printifyClient.getProduct(productId); return { success: true, product, response: formatSuccessResponse( 'Product Retrieved Successfully', { ProductId: productId, Title: product.title, Shop: currentShop } ) }; } catch (error: any) { console.error('Error getting product:', error); return { success: false, error, errorResponse: formatErrorResponse( error, 'Get Product', { ProductId: productId, Shop: printifyClient.getCurrentShop() }, [ 'Check that the product ID is valid', 'Ensure your Printify account is properly connected', 'Make sure you have selected a shop' ] ) }; }
- src/index.ts:218-248 (registration)Registers the 'get_product' MCP tool, defines input schema (productId: string), provides wrapper handler that initializes service and delegates to core handler.server.tool( "get_product", { productId: z.string().describe("Product ID") }, async ({ productId }): Promise<{ content: any[], isError?: boolean }> => { // Import the printify products service const { getProduct } = await import('./services/printify-products.js'); // Check if client is initialized if (!printifyClient) { return { content: [{ type: "text", text: "Printify API client is not initialized. The PRINTIFY_API_KEY environment variable may not be set." }], isError: true }; } // Call the service const result = await getProduct(printifyClient, productId); // Return the result if (result.success) { return result.response as { content: any[], isError?: boolean }; } else { return result.errorResponse as { content: any[], isError: boolean }; } } );
- src/index.ts:220-222 (schema)Zod input schema for get_product tool requiring productId as string.{ productId: z.string().describe("Product ID") },
- src/printify-api.ts:188-200 (helper)Low-level helper method in PrintifyAPI client that calls Printify SDK to retrieve product by ID.async getProduct(productId: string) { if (!this.shopId) { throw new Error('Shop ID is not set. Call setShopId() first.'); } try { // Use the products.getOne method with the product ID return await this.client.products.getOne(productId); } catch (error) { console.error(`Error fetching product ${productId}:`, error); throw error; } }
