# InfluxDB MCP Server - Guide for Claude ## Build & Test Commands - **Run all tests**: `npm test` - **Run a single test**: `npm test -- -t "test name"` (e.g., `npm test -- -t "should list organizations"`) - **Skip integration tests**: `npm test -- --testPathIgnorePatterns=integration.test.js` - **Install dependencies**: `npm install` - **Start server**: `INFLUXDB_TOKEN=your_token node src/index.js` - **Test with Docker**: Make sure Docker is running before executing tests - **Debug tests**: Add `DEBUG=mcp:*` environment variable for detailed MCP protocol logging ## Code Style Guidelines - **Language**: ES Modules JavaScript with TypeScript types (file extensions: .js) - **Testing**: Jest with 60-second timeout for Docker operations - **Formatting**: 2-space indentation - **Naming**: camelCase for variables/functions, PascalCase for classes - **Types**: Zod for runtime type validation - **Error handling**: Try/catch blocks with structured error messages - **Imports**: ES modules with named imports - **Async patterns**: Async/await pattern preferred over promises ## Environment - **Required vars**: `INFLUXDB_TOKEN` (authentication) - **Optional vars**: - `INFLUXDB_URL` (defaults to http://localhost:8086) - `INFLUXDB_ORG` (organization name for queries) - `DEBUG=mcp:*` (enables MCP protocol debugging) ## Project Structure - `src/` - Core server implementation - `tests/` - Integration tests using Docker containers ## Testing Approach - Integration tests use Docker to spin up a real InfluxDB instance - Tests primarily use direct API communication for reliability - Server process is tested through direct spawning and API verification - All tests include proper cleanup of Docker containers - Test timeout is set to 60 seconds to accommodate Docker operations ## Common Issues - Docker needs to be running for tests to pass - Port conflicts can occur if other services are using port 8086 - MCP client connection issues are bypassed by using direct API testing - Sometimes Docker cleanup requires manual intervention (docker rm) - See TESTS.md for detailed troubleshooting guides
