Instructions

Create a boolean column.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
database_idYesDatabase ID.
table_idYesTable ID. You can create a new table using the Database service [server integration](https://appwrite.io/docs/references/cloud/server-dart/tablesDB#createTable).
keyYesColumn Key.
requiredYesIs column required?
defaultNoDefault value for column when not provided. Cannot be set when column is required.
arrayNoIs column an array?

Implementation Reference

  • Registers the TablesDB Appwrite service as 'tables_db', dynamically generating tools like 'tables_db_create_boolean_column' from its methods.
    tools_manager.register_service(Service(TablesDB(client), "tables_db"))
  • Generic tool handler that retrieves the tool info from registry and calls the underlying Appwrite service method (TablesDB.create_boolean_column) with arguments, returning the result.
    @server.call_tool() async def handle_call_tool( name: str, arguments: dict | None ) -> list[types.TextContent | types.ImageContent | types.EmbeddedResource]: try: tool_info = tools_manager.get_tool(name) if not tool_info: raise McpError(f"Tool {name} not found") bound_method = tool_info["function"] result = bound_method(**(arguments or {})) if hasattr(result, 'to_dict'): result_dict = result.to_dict() return [types.TextContent(type="text", text=str(result_dict))] return [types.TextContent(type="text", text=str(result))] except AppwriteException as e: return [types.TextContent(type="text", text=f"Appwrite Error: {str(e)}")] except Exception as e: return [types.TextContent(type="text", text=f"Error: {str(e)}")]
  • Dynamically generates tool definitions including name ('tables_db_create_boolean_column'), description from docstring, and inputSchema from method signature and type hints for each public method on the TablesDB instance.
    def list_tools(self) -> Dict[str, Dict]: """Lists all available tools for this service""" tools = {} for name, func in inspect.getmembers(self.service, predicate=inspect.ismethod): if name.startswith('_'): # Skip private methods continue original_func = func.__func__ # Skip if not from the service's module if original_func.__module__ != self.service.__class__.__module__: continue # Get the overridden name if it exists tool_name = self._method_name_overrides.get(name, f"{self.service_name}_{name}") docstring = parse(original_func.__doc__) signature = inspect.signature(original_func) type_hints = get_type_hints(original_func) properties = {} required = [] for param_name, param in signature.parameters.items(): if param_name == 'self': continue param_type = type_hints.get(param_name, str) properties[param_name] = self.python_type_to_json_schema(param_type) properties[param_name]["description"] = f"Parameter '{param_name}'" for doc_param in docstring.params: if doc_param.arg_name == param_name: properties[param_name]["description"] = doc_param.description if param.default is param.empty: required.append(param_name) tool_definition = Tool( name=tool_name, description=f"{docstring.short_description or "No description available"}", inputSchema={ "type": "object", "properties": properties, "required": required } ) tools[tool_name] = { "definition": tool_definition, "function": func } return tools
  • Imports the Appwrite TablesDB service class whose methods implement the tool logic, including create_boolean_column.
    from appwrite.services.tables_db import TablesDB
  • Default registration of tables_db service if no flags specified.
    tools_manager.register_service(Service(TablesDB(client), "tables_db"))
