Implementation Reference

  • The main handler function for the MCP tool that wraps the core logic.
    async def replace_paragraph_block_below_header_tool(filename: str, header_text: str, new_paragraphs: list[str], detect_block_end_fn=None) -> str: """Reemplaza el bloque de párrafos debajo de un encabezado, evitando modificar TOC.""" return replace_paragraph_block_below_header(filename, header_text, new_paragraphs, detect_block_end_fn)
  • MCP tool registration using @mcp.tool() decorator, defining input schema via parameters.
    @mcp.tool() async def replace_paragraph_block_below_header(filename: str, header_text: str, new_paragraphs: List[str], detect_block_end_fn=None): """Reemplaza el bloque de párrafos debajo de un encabezado, evitando modificar TOC.""" return await replace_paragraph_block_below_header_tool(filename, header_text, new_paragraphs, detect_block_end_fn)
  • Core helper function implementing the replacement logic, including finding header, deleting block, and inserting new paragraphs.
    def replace_paragraph_block_below_header( doc_path: str, header_text: str, new_paragraphs: list[str], detect_block_end_fn=None, new_paragraph_style: str = None ) -> str: """ Reemplaza todo el contenido debajo de una cabecera (por texto), hasta el siguiente encabezado/TOC (por estilo). """ from docx import Document import os if not os.path.exists(doc_path): return f"Document {doc_path} not found." doc = Document(doc_path) # Find the header paragraph first header_para = None header_idx = None for i, para in enumerate(doc.paragraphs): para_text = para.text.strip().lower() is_toc = is_toc_paragraph(para) if para_text == header_text.strip().lower() and not is_toc: header_para = para header_idx = i break if header_para is None: return f"Header '{header_text}' not found in document." # Delete everything under the header using the same document instance header_el, removed_count = delete_block_under_header(doc, header_text) # Now insert new paragraphs after the header (which should still be in the document) style_to_use = new_paragraph_style or "Normal" # Find the header again after deletion (it should still be there) current_para = header_para for text in new_paragraphs: new_para = doc.add_paragraph(text, style=style_to_use) current_para._element.addnext(new_para._element) current_para = new_para doc.save(doc_path) return f"Replaced content under '{header_text}' with {len(new_paragraphs)} paragraph(s), style: {style_to_use}, removed {removed_count} elements."
  • Supporting helper to delete the block under the header until next heading or TOC.
    def delete_block_under_header(doc, header_text): """ Remove all elements (paragraphs, tables, etc.) after the header (by text) and before the next heading/TOC (by style). Returns: (header_element, elements_removed) """ # Find the header paragraph by text (like delete_paragraph finds by index) header_para = None header_idx = None for i, para in enumerate(doc.paragraphs): if para.text.strip().lower() == header_text.strip().lower(): header_para = para header_idx = i break if header_para is None: return None, 0 # Find the next heading/TOC paragraph to determine the end of the block end_idx = None for i in range(header_idx + 1, len(doc.paragraphs)): para = doc.paragraphs[i] if para.style and para.style.name.lower().startswith(('heading', 'título', 'toc')): end_idx = i break # If no next heading found, delete until end of document if end_idx is None: end_idx = len(doc.paragraphs) # Remove paragraphs by index (like delete_paragraph does) removed_count = 0 for i in range(header_idx + 1, end_idx): if i < len(doc.paragraphs): # Safety check para = doc.paragraphs[header_idx + 1] # Always remove the first paragraph after header p = para._p p.getparent().remove(p) removed_count += 1 return header_para._p, removed_count
