Implementation Reference
- src/operations/export.ts:46-67 (handler)Core handler function that executes the export_to_png tool logic: fetches the drawing by ID and returns a base64-encoded PNG image (placeholder implementation).
export async function exportToPng( id: string, quality: number = 0.92, scale: number = 1, exportWithDarkMode: boolean = false, exportBackground: boolean = true ): Promise<string> { try { // Get the drawing const drawing = await getDrawing(id); // Return the PNG content as a base64 string // Note: In a real implementation, we would use the Excalidraw API to convert the drawing to PNG // For now, we'll just return a placeholder return 'data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAYAAAAfFcSJAAAADUlEQVR42mP8z8BQDwAEhQGAhKmMIQAAAABJRU5ErkJggg=='; } catch (error) { if (error instanceof ExcalidrawResourceNotFoundError) { throw error; } throw new Error(`Failed to export drawing to PNG: ${(error as Error).message}`); } } - src/operations/export.ts:11-17 (schema)Zod schema defining the input parameters for the export_to_png tool.
export const ExportToPngSchema = z.object({ id: z.string().min(1), quality: z.number().min(0).max(1).optional().default(0.92), scale: z.number().min(0.1).max(5).optional().default(1), exportWithDarkMode: z.boolean().optional().default(false), exportBackground: z.boolean().optional().default(true), }); - index.ts:93-95 (registration)Registration of the export_to_png tool in the ListTools response, including name, description, and input schema.
name: "export_to_png", description: "Export an Excalidraw drawing to PNG", inputSchema: zodToJsonSchema(exportOps.ExportToPngSchema), - index.ts:161-172 (handler)Server-side handler in the CallToolRequest switch that parses arguments and invokes the exportToPng function.
