Implementation Reference
- src/mcp-server.ts:241-248 (registration)Tool 'get_cds_view' is registered in the ListToolsRequestSchema handler with input schema requiring a 'name' parameter (CDS view name).
name: "get_cds_view", description: "Fetch CDS view DDL source definition from SAP system", inputSchema: { type: "object" as const, properties: { name: { type: "string", description: "CDS view name (e.g. I_BUSINESSPARTNER)" }, ...SYSTEM_ID_PROP }, required: ["name"], }, }, - src/mcp-server.ts:1031-1037 (handler)Handler for 'get_cds_view': parses the name argument, then calls client.getSource() with the ADT URI for DDL sources (/sap/bc/adt/ddic/ddl/sources/{name}/source/main). Returns the CDS view DDL source code.
case "get_cds_view": { const { name: cdsName } = NameSchema.parse(args); const source = await client.getSource( `/sap/bc/adt/ddic/ddl/sources/${encodeURIComponent(cdsName.toUpperCase())}/source/main` ); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: source }] }; } - src/adt-client.ts:56-62 (helper)AdtClient.getSource() is the helper that performs the HTTP GET request to fetch source code from the SAP ADT system at the given path.
async getSource(path: string): Promise<string> { const response = await this.http.get<string>(path, { headers: { Accept: "text/plain" }, responseType: "text", }); return response.data; }
