Getting Started

Generate Wekan API Token

Run the appropriate script for your platform to generate your API token:

Windows (PowerShell):

./get-wekan-token.ps1

Linux/macOS (Bash):

./get-wekan-token.sh

The script will prompt you for:

• Wekan endpoint (e.g., https://wekan.namar0x0309.com)

• Username

• Password

After successful authentication, it will:

1. Generate an API token

2. Create or update the .env file with your token and configuration

Manual Configuration

If you prefer to configure manually, copy .env.example to .env and fill in your details:

cp .env.example .env

Then edit the .env file with your Wekan instance details and API token.

Environment Variables

The .env file contains:

• WEKAN_BASE_URL: Your Wekan instance URL

• WEKAN_API_TOKEN: Generated API token for authentication

• WEKAN_USERNAME: Your Wekan username (alternative to API token)

• WEKAN_PASSWORD: Your Wekan password (alternative to API token)

• WEKAN_USER_ID: Your Wekan user ID

• WEKAN_TOKEN_EXPIRES: Token expiration date

Note: You can authenticate using either:

1. WEKAN_API_TOKEN - Pre-generated token, or

2. WEKAN_USERNAME and WEKAN_PASSWORD - For automatic token generation on each request

Testing

You can test your configuration by running:

node test-auth.js

This will verify that your API token is working correctly.

You can also test all available methods:

node test-all-methods.js

Development

MCP Inspector

For development and debugging the MCP server, you can use the MCP Inspector:

npm run inspect

This will launch the MCP Inspector with the configuration from mcp-inspector-config.json.

For development with automatic rebuilding:

npm run inspect:watch

This will build the project and launch the inspector, automatically rebuilding when changes are detected.
