Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:768-813 (handler)The main handler function that executes the drop_table tool logic: validates inputs, checks safety confirmation, verifies table existence, constructs and executes DROP TABLE query via DBeaver client.
private async handleDropTable(args: { connectionId: string; tableName: string; confirm: boolean }) { const connectionId = sanitizeConnectionId(args.connectionId); const tableName = args.tableName; if (!tableName) { throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InvalidParams, 'Table name is required'); } if (!args.confirm) { return { content: [{ type: 'text' as const, text: JSON.stringify({ success: false, message: 'Safety confirmation required. Set confirm=true to proceed with dropping the table.' }, null, 2), }], }; } const connection = await this.configParser.getConnection(connectionId); if (!connection) { throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InvalidParams, `Connection not found: ${connectionId}`); } // Check if table exists first try { await this.dbeaverClient.getTableSchema(connection, tableName); } catch (error) { throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InvalidParams, `Table '${tableName}' does not exist or cannot be accessed`); } const dropQuery = `DROP TABLE "${tableName}"`; const result = await this.dbeaverClient.executeQuery(connection, dropQuery); return { content: [{ type: 'text' as const, text: JSON.stringify({ success: true, message: `Table '${tableName}' dropped successfully`, executionTime: result.executionTime }, null, 2), }], }; } - src/index.ts:298-319 (schema)Tool definition including name, description, and input schema specifying required parameters: connectionId, tableName, and confirm boolean.
