Implementation Reference

  • The handler function that executes the get_products tool. It constructs URL query parameters based on input arguments and makes a GET request to the CS-Cart /products API endpoint using the shared makeRequest helper.
    async getProducts(args) {
      const params = new URLSearchParams();
      
      if (args.page) params.append('page', args.page.toString());
      if (args.items_per_page) params.append('items_per_page', args.items_per_page.toString());
      if (args.status) params.append('status', args.status);
      if (args.category_id) params.append('cid', args.category_id.toString());
      if (args.q) params.append('q', args.q);
    
      const queryString = params.toString();
      const endpoint = `/products${queryString ? `?${queryString}` : ''}`;
      
      const result = await this.makeRequest('GET', endpoint);
      return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }] };
    }
  • src/index.js:44-74 (registration)
    Registration of the get_products tool in the ListToolsRequestHandler, including its metadata and input schema definition.
      name: 'get_products',
      description: 'Retrieve a list of products from the CS-Cart store',
      inputSchema: {
        type: 'object',
        properties: {
          page: {
            type: 'number',
            description: 'Page number for pagination',
            default: 1,
          },
          items_per_page: {
            type: 'number',
            description: 'Number of items per page',
            default: 10,
          },
          status: {
            type: 'string',
            description: 'Product status filter (A=Active, D=Disabled, H=Hidden)',
            enum: ['A', 'D', 'H'],
          },
          category_id: {
            type: 'number',
            description: 'Filter by category ID',
          },
          q: {
            type: 'string',
            description: 'Search query for product name',
          },
        },
      },
    },
  • src/index.js:390-391 (registration)
    Dispatch/registration logic in the CallToolRequestHandler switch statement that routes calls to the getProducts handler.
    case 'get_products':
      return await this.getProducts(args);
  • Input schema definition for the get_products tool, specifying parameters for pagination, filtering, and search.
    inputSchema: {
      type: 'object',
      properties: {
        page: {
          type: 'number',
          description: 'Page number for pagination',
          default: 1,
        },
        items_per_page: {
          type: 'number',
          description: 'Number of items per page',
          default: 10,
        },
        status: {
          type: 'string',
          description: 'Product status filter (A=Active, D=Disabled, H=Hidden)',
          enum: ['A', 'D', 'H'],
        },
        category_id: {
          type: 'number',
          description: 'Filter by category ID',
        },
        q: {
          type: 'string',
          description: 'Search query for product name',
        },
      },
    },
  • Shared helper method used by getProducts (and other tools) to make authenticated API requests to the CS-Cart server.
    async makeRequest(method, endpoint, data = null) {
      const config = {
        method,
        url: `${process.env.CSCART_API_URL}${endpoint}`,
        headers: {
          'Content-Type': 'application/json',
          'Authorization': `Basic ${Buffer.from(`${process.env.CSCART_API_EMAIL}:${process.env.CSCART_API_KEY}`).toString('base64')}`,
        },
      };
    
      if (data) {
        config.data = data;
      }
    
      const response = await axios(config);
      return response.data;
    }
