Implementation Reference

  • The core handler function that implements the logic to retrieve file content from an Azure DevOps repository using the Git client API.
    def get_file_content(self, project, repository_id, path):
        return self.git_client.get_item_text(
            project=project,
            repository_id=repository_id,
            path=path
        )
  • Tool registration in the MCP server, defining the tool name, description, and input schema for validation.
    types.Tool(
        name="get_file_content",
        description="Gets the content of a file in a repository.",
        inputSchema={
            "type": "object",
            "properties": {
                "project": {
                    "type": "string", 
                    "description": "The name or ID of the project."
                },
                "repository_id": {
                    "type": "string", 
                    "description": "The name or ID of the repository."
                },
                "path": {
                    "type": "string", 
                    "description": "The path to the file."
                },
            },
            "required": ["project", "repository_id", "path"],
            "additionalProperties": False
        }
    ),
  • Dispatch handler in the server's _execute_tool method that invokes the AzureDevOpsClient's get_file_content method with parsed arguments.
    elif name == "get_file_content":
        return self.client.get_file_content(**arguments)
