generate_path_map

Create visual route maps for travel planning by converting points of interest into detailed maps with locations and photos.

Instructions

Generate a route map to display the user's planned route, such as travel guide routes.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
titleYesThe map title should not exceed 16 characters. The content should be consistent with the information the map wants to convey and should be accurate, rich, creative, and attractive.
dataYesRoutes, each group represents all POIs along a route. For example, [{ "data": ["西安钟楼", "西安大唐不夜城", "西安大雁塔"] }, { "data": ["西安曲江池公园", "西安回民街"] }]
widthNoSet the width of map, default is 1600.
heightNoSet the height of map, default is 1000.

Implementation Reference

  • The core handler function for map tools like generate_path_map. It sends the tool name and input parameters to an external visualization server via HTTP POST to generate the path map.
    export async function generateMap( tool: string, input: unknown, ): Promise<ResponseResult> { const url = getVisRequestServer(); const response = await axios.post( url, { serviceId: getServiceIdentifier(), tool, input, source: "mcp-server-chart", }, { headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json", }, }, ); const { success, errorMessage, resultObj } = response.data; if (!success) { throw new Error(errorMessage); } return resultObj; }
  • Defines the input schema (using Zod) and tool metadata for the generate_path_map tool, including name, description, and inputSchema.
    const schema = { title: MapTitleSchema, data: z .array( z.object({ data: POIsSchema }).describe("The route and places along it."), ) .nonempty("At least one route is required.") .describe( 'Routes, each group represents all POIs along a route. For example, [{ "data": ["西安钟楼", "西安大唐不夜城", "西安大雁塔"] }, { "data": ["西安曲江池公园", "西安回民街"] }]', ), width: MapWidthSchema, height: MapHeightSchema, }; // https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-03-26/server/tools#listing-tools const tool = { name: "generate_path_map", description: "Generate a route map to display the user's planned route, such as travel guide routes.", inputSchema: zodToJsonSchema(schema), annotations: { title: "Generate Path Map", readOnlyHint: true, }, }; export const pathMap = { schema, tool, };
  • src/server.ts:64-77 (registration)
    Sets up MCP tool handlers. The listTools handler includes generate_path_map from Charts.pathMap.tool, and callTool requests are routed to the callTool utility.
    function setupToolHandlers(server: Server): void { logger.info("setting up tool handlers..."); server.setRequestHandler(ListToolsRequestSchema, async () => ({ tools: getEnabledTools().map((chart) => chart.tool), })); // biome-ignore lint/suspicious/noExplicitAny: <explanation> server.setRequestHandler(CallToolRequestSchema, async (request: any) => { logger.info("calling tool", request.params.name, request.params.arguments); return await callTool(request.params.name, request.params.arguments); }); logger.info("tool handlers set up"); }
  • Maps the generate_path_map tool name to the 'path-map' chart type for dispatch.
    const CHART_TYPE_MAP = { generate_area_chart: "area", generate_bar_chart: "bar", generate_boxplot_chart: "boxplot", generate_column_chart: "column", generate_district_map: "district-map", generate_dual_axes_chart: "dual-axes", generate_fishbone_diagram: "fishbone-diagram", generate_flow_diagram: "flow-diagram", generate_funnel_chart: "funnel", generate_histogram_chart: "histogram", generate_line_chart: "line", generate_liquid_chart: "liquid", generate_mind_map: "mind-map", generate_network_graph: "network-graph", generate_organization_chart: "organization-chart", generate_path_map: "path-map", generate_pie_chart: "pie", generate_pin_map: "pin-map", generate_radar_chart: "radar", generate_sankey_chart: "sankey", generate_scatter_chart: "scatter", generate_treemap_chart: "treemap", generate_venn_chart: "venn", generate_violin_chart: "violin", generate_waterfall_chart: "waterfall", generate_word_cloud_chart: "word-cloud", } as const;
  • Identifies generate_path_map as a map chart tool and delegates execution to generateMap.
    const isMapChartTool = [ "generate_district_map", "generate_path_map", "generate_pin_map", ].includes(tool); if (isMapChartTool) { // For map charts, we use the generateMap function, and return the mcp result. const { metadata, ...result } = await generateMap(tool, args); return result; }
