Implementation Reference

  • Defines the ConsumerSchema (Zod schema) which is aliased as CreateOrUpdateConsumerSchema and used for input validation of the tool.
    export const ConsumerSchema = z .object({ username: z.string().describe("consumer username"), desc: z.string().optional().describe("consumer description"), labels: z.record(z.string(), z.string()).optional().describe("consumer labels"), plugins: PluginSchema.optional().describe("consumer plugins"), group_id: z.string().optional().describe("consumer group id"), }) .passthrough() .describe("consumer configuration object");
  • Registers the "create_or_update_consumer" tool on the MCP server with description, input schema, and inline async handler function.
    server.tool( "create_or_update_consumer", "Create a consumer, if the consumer already exists, it will be updated", CreateOrUpdateConsumerSchema.shape, async (args) => { return await makeAdminAPIRequest(`/consumers`, "PUT", args); } );
  • The server.tool call includes the handler lambda that executes the tool logic by calling makeAdminAPIRequest.
    server.tool( "create_or_update_consumer", "Create a consumer, if the consumer already exists, it will be updated", CreateOrUpdateConsumerSchema.shape, async (args) => { return await makeAdminAPIRequest(`/consumers`, "PUT", args); } );
  • Supporting utility function makeAdminAPIRequest that performs the HTTP request to the APISIX Admin API using axios and formats the response as CallToolResult.
    export async function makeAdminAPIRequest( path: string, method: string = "GET", data?: object ): Promise<CallToolResult> { const baseUrl = `${APISIX_SERVER_HOST}:${APISIX_ADMIN_API_PORT}${APISIX_ADMIN_API_PREFIX}`; const url = `${baseUrl}${path}`; try { const response = await axios({ method, url, data, headers: { "X-API-KEY": APISIX_ADMIN_KEY, "Content-Type": "application/json", }, }); return { content: [ { type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(response.data, null, 2), }, ], }; } catch (error) { if (axios.isAxiosError(error)) { console.error(`Request failed: ${method} ${url}`); console.error( `Status: ${error.response?.status}, Error: ${error.message}` ); if (error.response?.data) { try { const stringifiedData = JSON.stringify(error.response.data); console.error(`Response data: ${stringifiedData}`); } catch { console.error(`Response data: [Cannot parse as JSON]`); } } return { isError: true, content: [ { type: "text", text: JSON.stringify( `Status: ${error.response?.status}\nMessage: ${error.message} Data:\n${JSON.stringify(error.response?.data || {}, null, 2)}`, null, 2 ), }, ], }; } else { return { isError: true, content: [ { type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(error, null, 2), }, ], }; } } }
