Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:460-490 (handler)The handler for the 'search-bible' tool. It extracts parameters, calls the searchVerses helper function, and formats the search results into markdown or a no-results message.case "search-bible": { const { query, version = "GAE" } = args as { query: string; version?: string; }; const results = await searchVerses(query, version); if (results.length === 0) { return { content: [ { type: "text", text: `No results found for "${query}" (searched limited books for demo)`, }, ], }; } let result = `# Search Results for "${query}"\n`; result += `Found ${results.length} verses:\n\n`; for (const verse of results) { result += `**${verse.book} ${verse.chapter}:${verse.verse}**\n`; result += `${verse.text}\n\n`; } return { content: [{ type: "text", text: result }], }; }
- src/index.ts:312-331 (schema)The input schema definition for the 'search-bible' tool, specifying the required 'query' parameter and optional 'version'.{ name: "search-bible", description: "Search for verses containing specific keywords (searches limited books for demo)", inputSchema: { type: "object", properties: { query: { type: "string", description: "Search query (Korean or English)", }, version: { type: "string", description: "Bible translation version (default: GAE)", enum: ["GAE", "GAE1", "NIR", "KOR", "CEV"], default: "GAE", }, }, required: ["query"], }, },
- src/index.ts:197-239 (helper)Helper function implementing the core search logic by fetching chapters from limited books (demo) and matching verses against the query.async function searchVerses( query: string, version: string = "GAE", books?: string[] ): Promise<Array<{ book: string; chapter: number; verse: number; text: string }>> { const results: Array<{ book: string; chapter: number; verse: number; text: string }> = []; const searchLower = query.toLowerCase(); // Determine which books to search const booksToSearch = books || Object.keys(BIBLE_BOOKS); // For demo purposes, we'll search Genesis and Matthew only // In production, you'd want to implement proper search or use the website's search feature const limitedBooks = booksToSearch.slice(0, 2); for (const bookName of limitedBooks) { const bookInfo = BIBLE_BOOKS[bookName]; if (!bookInfo) continue; // Search first few chapters (limit to avoid too many requests) for (let chapter = 1; chapter <= 3; chapter++) { try { const chapterData = await fetchChapter(bookInfo.code, chapter, version); for (const verse of chapterData.verses) { if (verse.text.toLowerCase().includes(searchLower)) { results.push({ book: chapterData.book, chapter: chapterData.chapter, verse: verse.number, text: verse.text, }); } } } catch (error) { // Skip chapters that don't exist break; } } } return results; }
- src/index.ts:376-378 (registration)Registers the list of available tools (including 'search-bible') for the ListToolsRequestSchema.server.setRequestHandler(ListToolsRequestSchema, async () => { return { tools }; });
