Implementation Reference
- src/mcp-server.ts:397-405 (registration)Tool registration for 'get_table' in the ListToolsRequestSchema handler. Defines the tool name, description, and input schema (requires 'name' property with optional system_id).
{ name: "get_table", description: "Fetch ABAP database table definition from SAP system", inputSchema: { type: "object" as const, properties: { name: { type: "string", description: "Table name (e.g. VBAK)" }, ...SYSTEM_ID_PROP }, required: ["name"], }, }, - src/mcp-server.ts:1063-1069 (handler)Handler implementation for the 'get_table' tool. Parses the 'name' argument, calls client.getSource() with the ADT URI path for DDIC tables (/sap/bc/adt/ddic/tables/{name}/source/main), and returns the source code as text.
case "get_table": { const { name: tableName } = NameSchema.parse(args); const source = await client.getSource( `/sap/bc/adt/ddic/tables/${encodeURIComponent(tableName.toUpperCase())}/source/main` ); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: source }] }; } - src/adt-client.ts:56-62 (helper)The getSource() helper method on AdtClient. Performs an HTTP GET request with Accept: text/plain to fetch the source code for any ADT object, including DDIC tables used by get_table.
async getSource(path: string): Promise<string> { const response = await this.http.get<string>(path, { headers: { Accept: "text/plain" }, responseType: "text", }); return response.data; } - src/mcp-server.ts:13-13 (schema)The NameSchema used by get_table for input validation. Defines a required string property 'name'.
const NameSchema = z.object({ name: z.string() });
