Implementation Reference

  • Core handler function that executes the SQL query to fetch column names and comments from information_schema.columns and formats them into a dictionary.
    async def get_column_comments_async(self, table_name: str, db_name: str = None, catalog_name: str = None) -> Dict[str, str]:
        """Async version: get comments for all columns in a table."""
        try:
            effective_db = db_name or self.db_name
            effective_catalog = catalog_name or self.catalog_name
    
            query = f"""
            SELECT 
                COLUMN_NAME, 
                COLUMN_COMMENT 
            FROM 
                information_schema.columns 
            WHERE 
                TABLE_SCHEMA = '{effective_db}' 
                AND TABLE_NAME = '{table_name}'
            ORDER BY 
                ORDINAL_POSITION
            """
    
            rows = await self._execute_query_with_catalog_async(query, effective_db, effective_catalog)
            comments: Dict[str, str] = {}
            for col in rows or []:
                name = col.get("COLUMN_NAME", "")
                if name:
                    comments[name] = col.get("COLUMN_COMMENT", "") or ""
            return comments
        except Exception as e:
            logger.error(f"Failed to get column comments asynchronously: {e}")
            return {}
  • MCP-specific wrapper method that calls the core get_column_comments_async handler and formats the response.
    async def get_table_column_comments_for_mcp(
        self, 
        table_name: str, 
        db_name: str = None, 
        catalog_name: str = None
    ) -> Dict[str, Any]:
        """Get comment information for all columns in specified table - MCP interface"""
        logger.info(f"Getting table column comments: Table: {table_name}, DB: {db_name}, Catalog: {catalog_name}")
        
        if not table_name:
            return self._format_response(success=False, error="Missing table_name parameter")
        
        try:
            comments = await self.get_column_comments_async(table_name=table_name, db_name=db_name, catalog_name=catalog_name)
            return self._format_response(success=True, result=comments)
        except Exception as e:
            logger.error(f"Failed to get table column comments: {str(e)}", exc_info=True)
            return self._format_response(success=False, error=str(e), message="Error occurred while getting table column comments")
  • Routing handler in tools_manager that delegates the tool execution to MetadataExtractor.
    async def _get_table_column_comments_tool(self, arguments: Dict[str, Any]) -> Dict[str, Any]:
        """Get table column comments tool routing"""
        table_name = arguments.get("table_name")

        # Delegate to metadata extractor for processing
        return await self.metadata_extractor.get_table_column_comments_for_mcp(
            table_name, db_name, catalog_name
        )
  • MCP tool registration decorator and wrapper function that routes to the internal call_tool dispatcher.
