tables_db_list

Retrieve and filter databases from your Appwrite project. Use search queries to find specific databases by name and manage your data resources.

Instructions

Get a list of all databases from the current Appwrite project. You can use the search parameter to filter your results.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
queriesNoArray of query strings generated using the Query class provided by the SDK. [Learn more about queries](https://appwrite.io/docs/queries). Maximum of 100 queries are allowed, each 4096 characters long. You may filter on the following columns: name
searchNoSearch term to filter your list results. Max length: 256 chars.

Implementation Reference

  • Generic handler for all tools, including 'tables_db_list'. Retrieves the tool info from registry and invokes the bound method (TablesDB.list for this tool), serializes the result to text content.
    @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 (schemas) and handlers for all methods of the Appwrite service instance. For TablesDB, creates 'tables_db_list' from its 'list' method.
    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
  • Registers the TablesDB Appwrite service with name 'tables_db', enabling dynamic tool generation including 'tables_db_list'.
    if args.tables_db: tools_manager.register_service(Service(TablesDB(client), "tables_db")) if args.users:
  • Default registration of tables_db service if no services specified via CLI.
    if not any([args.databases, args.tables_db, args.users, args.teams, args.storage, args.functions, args.messaging, args.locale, args.avatars, args.sites]): tools_manager.register_service(Service(TablesDB(client), "tables_db"))
  • ToolManager method that registers a service by adding its dynamically generated tools to the registry.
    def register_service(self, service: Service): """Register a new service and its tools""" self.services.append(service) self.tools_registry.update(service.list_tools())
