Implementation Reference

  • The handler function that implements the logic for the getRegionById tool. It fetches detailed information about a specific region from the Colombia API using the provided regionId, handles errors including 404, formats the response in a readable text format, and returns it as ApiColombiaResponse.
    export async function getRegionById(regionId: string): Promise<ApiColombiaResponse> {
        try {
            const apiUrl = process.env.API_COLOMBIA_URL || 'https://api-colombia.com/api/';
            const response = await fetch(`${apiUrl}v1/Region/${regionId}`);
            
            if (!response.ok) {
                if (response.status === 404) {
                    return {
                        content: [{
                            type: 'text',
                            text: `❌ No se encontró una región con el ID: ${regionId}`
                        }]
                    };
                }
                throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
            }
            
            const regionData: RegionData = await response.json();
            
            // Format the region data into a readable text format
            const regionInfo = `
    🇨🇴 DETALLE DE LA REGIÓN
    ${'═'.repeat(80)}
    
    🌎 REGIÓN: ${regionData.name}
    📍 ID: ${regionData.id}
    📝 Descripción: ${regionData.description}
    ${regionData.departments ? `🏛️ Departamentos: ${regionData.departments.join(', ')}` : '🏛️ Departamentos: No especificados'}
    
    ${'═'.repeat(80)}
            `;
            
            return {
                content: [{
                    type: 'text',
                    text: regionInfo.trim()
                }]
            };
            
        } catch (error) {
            const errorMessage = error instanceof Error ? error.message : ERROR_MESSAGES.UNKNOWN_ERROR;
            return {
                content: [{
                    type: 'text',
                    text: `${ERROR_MESSAGES.FETCH_ERROR}: ${errorMessage}`
                }]
            };
        }
    }
  • Registration of the 'getRegionById' tool in the tools configuration array, linking the name, description from constants, and the handler function.
    {
      name: TOOL_NAMES.GET_REGION_BY_ID,
      description: TOOL_DESCRIPTIONS.GET_REGION_BY_ID,
      handler: getRegionById,
    },
  • Constants defining the tool name ('getRegionById') and description used in the tool schema and registration.
    export const TOOL_NAMES = {
      GET_COUNTRY: 'getCountry',
      GET_REGIONS: 'getRegions',
      GET_REGION_BY_ID: 'getRegionById',
      GET_DEPARTMENTS_BY_REGION: 'getDepartmentsByRegion',
    } as const;
    
    export const TOOL_DESCRIPTIONS = {
      GET_COUNTRY: 'Get information about a country',
      GET_REGIONS: 'Get list of regions in Colombia',
      GET_REGION_BY_ID: 'Get detailed information about a specific region by ID',
      GET_DEPARTMENTS_BY_REGION: 'Get list of departments for a specific region by region ID',
    } as const;
  • Type definition for the region data structure used in the getRegionById handler.
    interface RegionData {
        id: number;
        name: string;
        description: string;
        departments: string[] | null;
    }
