## Installation
### For Users
There are two ways to install the MCP server as a user:
1. **Get your API Key:**
For EU Users https://dtc.aparavi.eu/usage or US Users https://dtc.aparavi.com/usage
3. **Run the Server**
```bash
# Choose which Aparavi server you want to use and set API keys in terminal
# For US users:
# Get Aparavi API Key from: https://dtc.aparavi.com/
# Set APARAVI_API_URL to: https://eaas.aparavi.com
# For EU users:
# Get Aparavi API Key from: https://dtc.aparavi.eu/
# Set APARAVI_API_URL to: https://eaas.aparavi.eu
# For Unix/Linux/macOS
export APARAVI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
export APARAVI_API_URL=your_url_here
# For Windows - Set API keys in Command Prompt
set APARAVI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
set APARAVI_API_URL="your_url_here"
# OR for Windows PowerShell
$env:APARAVI_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
$env:APARAVI_API_URL="your_url_here"
# Run the server (same command for all platforms)
npx aparavi-mcp@latest
```
4. **Add Server to your Client**
Update your `MCP_config.json` file in the client with this:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"aparavi": {
"serverUrl": "http://localhost:8000/mcp"
}
}
}
```
### For Developers
For local development and testing:
1. **Clone the Repository**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/AparaviSoftware/mcp-server
cd mcp-server
```
2. **Set Environment Variables**
```bash
# For US users: https://eaas.aparavi.com
# For EU users: https://eaas.aparavi.eu
# For Unix/Linux/macOS
export APARAVI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
export APARAVI_API_URL=your_url_here
# For Windows - Set API keys in Command Prompt
set APARAVI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
set APARAVI_API_URL="your_url_here"
# OR for Windows PowerShell
$env:APARAVI_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
$env:APARAVI_API_URL="your_url_here"
```
3. **Set Up Python Environment**
```bash
npx aparavi-mcp@latest
```
4. **Running Tests**
First, ensure your server is running (from step 1). Then you can run and configure tests:
```bash
# Run the test tool
python tests/test_tool.py
```
To test different tools or files, open `tests/test_tool.py` and modify the `main()` function:
```python
def main():
# Change the file path to test different documents
file_path = "tests/testdata/test_document.txt"
# Or try other test files:
# file_path = "tests/testdata/SDD_RoadTrip.pdf"
# file_path = "tests/testdata/system_diagram.jpeg"
# Change the tool name to test different tools
tool_name = "document_processor"
# Available tools:
# - "Aparavi_Document_Processor" (for text documents)
# - "Advanced_OCR_Parser" (for diagrams/images)
run_tool_test(file_path, tool_name)
```
## Configuration
### Required Environment Variables
- `APARAVI_API_KEY`: Your Aparavi API key (required)
- `APARAVI_API_URL`: Your Aparavi API server (required)
### Optional Environment Variables
- `VISION_API_KEY`: Your Mistral Vision API key (required only for video processing tool)
- Only needed if you want to use the `Aparavi_Video_Processor` tool
- Get your API key from [Mistral AI](https://console.mistral.ai/)
- Set it the same way as other environment variables:
```bash
# Unix/Linux/macOS
export VISION_API_KEY=your_mistral_api_key_here
# Windows Command Prompt
set VISION_API_KEY=your_mistral_api_key_here
# Windows PowerShell
$env:VISION_API_KEY="your_mistral_api_key_here"
```
