Implementation Reference
- src/tools/handlers.ts:362-384 (handler)The main handler logic for the 'create_database' tool. Validates required parameters, determines the appropriate Coolify API endpoint based on database type, validates the type, and sends a POST request to create the database.case 'create_database': requireParam(args, 'name'); requireParam(args, 'type'); requireParam(args, 'project_uuid'); requireParam(args, 'environment_name'); requireParam(args, 'server_uuid'); // Coolify uses type-specific endpoints for database creation const dbType = String(args.type).toLowerCase(); const validTypes: Record<string, string> = { 'postgresql': '/databases/postgresql', 'mysql': '/databases/mysql', 'mariadb': '/databases/mariadb', 'mongodb': '/databases/mongodb', 'redis': '/databases/redis', 'clickhouse': '/databases/clickhouse', 'dragonfly': '/databases/dragonfly', 'keydb': '/databases/keydb' }; const endpoint = validTypes[dbType]; if (!endpoint) { throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InvalidParams, `Invalid database type: ${dbType}. Valid types are: ${Object.keys(validTypes).join(', ')}`); } return client.post(endpoint, args);
- src/tools/definitions.ts:587-599 (schema)Tool definition including name, description, and JSON input schema for MCP tool registration and validation.name: 'create_database', description: 'Create a new database. Valid types: postgresql, mysql, mariadb, mongodb, redis, clickhouse, dragonfly, keydb', inputSchema: { type: 'object', properties: { name: { type: 'string', description: 'Database name' }, type: { type: 'string', description: 'Database type (postgresql, mysql, mariadb, mongodb, redis, clickhouse, dragonfly, keydb)' }, project_uuid: { type: 'string', description: 'Project UUID' }, environment_name: { type: 'string', description: 'Environment name' }, server_uuid: { type: 'string', description: 'Server UUID' } }, required: ['name', 'type', 'project_uuid', 'environment_name', 'server_uuid'] }
- src/types.ts:150-156 (schema)TypeScript interface defining the input structure for create_database, matching the tool schema.export interface CreateDatabaseInput { name: string; type: string; project_uuid: string; environment_name: string; server_uuid: string; }
- src/tools/definitions.ts:1201-1206 (registration)Function that exports all tool definitions (including create_database) for MCP server registration, with optional read-only filtering.export function getToolDefinitions() { if (isReadOnlyMode()) { return allToolDefinitions.filter(tool => READ_ONLY_TOOLS.includes(tool.name)); } return allToolDefinitions; }
