Implementation Reference

src/services/databases.ts:32-41 (handler)

The core handler function that implements the liara_create_database tool logic. It validates the required input fields (name, type, planID) and makes a POST request to the Liara API endpoint '/v1/databases' to create the database.

export async function createDatabase(
    client: LiaraClient,
    request: CreateDatabaseRequest
): Promise<Database> {
    validateRequired(request.name, 'Database name');
    validateRequired(request.type, 'Database type');
    validateRequired(request.planID, 'Plan ID');

    return await client.post<Database>('/v1/databases', request);
}

src/api/types.ts:157-162 (schema)
