Implementation Reference

  • The handler function decorated with @mcp.tool(), which registers the 'manage_dev_environment' tool and implements its core logic by generating Docker Compose files for development services.
    async def manage_dev_environment(service: str, project_path: str = "."): """ Manages local development environments using Docker Compose. Args: service: The service to set up (e.g., 'postgres', 'redis'). project_path: The path to the project directory. Returns: A confirmation message with the next steps. """ from .docker_manager import create_docker_compose, TEMPLATES try: if service not in TEMPLATES: return { "error": f"Service '{service}' not supported.", "available_services": list(TEMPLATES.keys()), } compose_file = create_docker_compose(service, project_path) return { "status": "success", "message": f"βœ… Successfully created 'docker-compose.yml' for '{service}' in '{project_path}'.", "next_steps": [ f"1. Review the generated file: {compose_file}", "2. Run the service: docker-compose up -d", "3. To stop the service: docker-compose down", ], "service_details": TEMPLATES[service]["services"], } except (ValueError, FileExistsError) as e: return {"error": str(e)} except Exception as e: return {"error": f"An unexpected error occurred: {str(e)}"}
  • The helper function 'create_docker_compose' that generates the docker-compose.yml file using predefined service templates (TEMPLATES dict). This is the core utility called by the tool handler.
    def create_docker_compose(service: str, path: str = ".") -> str: """ Creates a docker-compose.yml file for a given service in the specified path. Args: service: The name of the service (e.g., 'postgres'). path: The directory where the file will be created. Returns: The full path to the created docker-compose.yml file. """ if service not in TEMPLATES: raise ValueError( f"Service '{service}' not supported. Available services: {list(TEMPLATES.keys())}" ) compose_path = os.path.join(path, "docker-compose.yml") if os.path.exists(compose_path): # We can decide whether to overwrite, merge, or fail. # For now, we'll fail to avoid accidental data loss. raise FileExistsError( f"A 'docker-compose.yml' already exists at {path}. Please remove it first." ) with open(compose_path, "w") as f: yaml.dump(TEMPLATES[service], f, default_flow_style=False, sort_keys=False) return compose_path
  • Predefined Docker Compose templates for services like postgres, redis, rabbitmq, used by create_docker_compose to generate environment-specific docker-compose.yml files.
    TEMPLATES: Dict[str, Dict] = { "postgres": { "version": "3.8", "services": { "db": { "image": "postgres:15-alpine", "restart": "always", "environment": { "POSTGRES_USER": "myuser", "POSTGRES_PASSWORD": "mypassword", "POSTGRES_DB": "mydatabase", }, "ports": ["5432:5432"], "volumes": ["postgres_data:/var/lib/postgresql/data/"], } }, "volumes": {"postgres_data": {}}, }, "redis": { "version": "3.8", "services": { "redis": { "image": "redis:7-alpine", "restart": "always", "ports": ["6379:6379"], "volumes": ["redis_data:/data"], } }, "volumes": {"redis_data": {}}, }, "rabbitmq": { "version": "3.8", "services": { "rabbitmq": { "image": "rabbitmq:3-management-alpine", "restart": "always", "ports": ["5672:5672", "15672:15672"], "environment": { "RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_USER": "myuser", "RABBITA_DEFAULT_PASS": "mypassword", }, "volumes": ["rabbitmq_data:/var/lib/rabbitmq/"], } }, "volumes": {"rabbitmq_data": {}}, }, }
  • The @mcp.tool() decorator registers the manage_dev_environment function as an MCP tool.
