Implementation Reference
- python/f1_data.py:29-45 (handler)The core handler function that executes the tool logic: fetches the F1 event schedule for the given year using fastf1.get_event_schedule(year), processes the pandas DataFrame into a JSON-serializable list of event dictionaries using json_serial helper, and returns success/error response.
def get_event_schedule(year): """Get the event schedule for a specified season""" try: year = int(year) schedule = fastf1.get_event_schedule(year) # Convert DataFrame to JSON serializable format result = [] for _, row in schedule.iterrows(): event_dict = row.to_dict() # Clean and convert non-serializable values clean_dict = {k: json_serial(v) for k, v in event_dict.items()} result.append(clean_dict) return {"status": "success", "data": result} except Exception as e: return {"status": "error", "message": str(e), "traceback": traceback.format_exc()} - src/index.ts:91-104 (schema)Defines the tool schema including name, description, and input schema requiring a 'year' number parameter for input validation.
