## Description

A production-ready template for developing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers using Python and FastMCP. This server provides a foundation for creating MCP-compliant servers with comprehensive examples of tools, structured logging, configuration management, and containerized deployment.

The template includes three example MCP tools: a multiply calculator, a code review prompt generator, and a Red Hat logo resource handler. It demonstrates best practices for MCP server development including proper error handling, health checks, multiple transport protocols (HTTP, SSE, streamable-HTTP), SSL support, and comprehensive development tooling.

## How to Run the Code Locally

### Prerequisites

- Python 3.12 or higher
- [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) (fast Python package installer and resolver)

### Setup

1. **Install uv (if not already installed):**
   ```bash
   # On macOS/Linux:
   curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

   # On MacOS using brew
   brew install uv

   # On Windows:
   powershell -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"

   # Or with pip:
   pip install uv
   ```

2. **Clone the repository:**
   ```bash
   git clone https://github.com/redhat-data-and-ai/template-mcp-server
   cd template-mcp-server
   ```

3. **Create and activate a virtual environment with uv:**
   ```bash
   uv venv

   # Activate the virtual environment:
   # On macOS/Linux:
   source .venv/bin/activate

   # On Windows:
   .venv\Scripts\activate
   ```

4. **Install the package and dependencies:**
   ```bash
   # Install in editable mode with all dependencies
   uv pip install -e .
   ```

5. **Configure environment variables:**
   ```bash
   cp .env.example .env
   # Edit .env file with your configuration
   ```

6. **Run the server:**
   ```bash
   # Using the installed console script
   template-mcp-server

   # Or directly with Python module
   python -m template_mcp_server.src.main

   # Or using uv to run directly
   uv run python -m template_mcp_server.src.main
   ```

### Configuration Options

The server configuration is managed through environment variables:

| Variable | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|-------------|
| `MCP_HOST` | `0.0.0.0` | Server bind address |
| `MCP_PORT` | `3000` | Server port (1024-65535) |
| `MCP_TRANSPORT_PROTOCOL` | `streamable-http` | Transport protocol (`http`, `sse`, `streamable-http`) |
| `MCP_SSL_KEYFILE` | `None` | SSL private key file path |
| `MCP_SSL_CERTFILE` | `None` | SSL certificate file path |
| `PYTHON_LOG_LEVEL` | `INFO` | Logging level (`DEBUG`, `INFO`, `WARNING`, `ERROR`, `CRITICAL`) |

### Using Podman

1. **Build and run with Podman Compose:**
   ```bash
   podman-compose up --build
   ```

2. **Or build manually:**
   ```bash
   podman build -t template-mcp-server .
   podman run -p 3000:3000 --env-file .env template-mcp-server
   ```

### Deploying to OpenShift

7. **Create Pull Request**

### Coding Standards

- **Python Style**: Follow PEP 8 (enforced by Ruff)
- **Type Annotations**: Required for all public functions and methods
- **Documentation**: Google-style docstrings for all public APIs
- **Testing**: Write tests for new functionality with pytest
- **Commits**: Use conventional commit format (`feat:`, `fix:`, `docs:`, etc.)
- **Error Handling**: Use structured logging and proper exception handling

### Adding New MCP Tools

1. **Create tool module:**
   ```python
   # template_mcp_server/src/tools/your_tool.py
   async def your_tool_function(param: str) -> dict:
       """Your tool description.

       Args:
           param: Parameter description.

       Returns:
           dict: Result dictionary.
       """
       # Implementation here
       return {"result": "success"}
   ```

2. **Register in MCP server:**
   ```python
   # In template_mcp_server/src/mcp.py
   from template_mcp_server.src.tools.your_tool import your_tool_function

   def _register_mcp_tools(self) -> None:
       self.mcp.tool()(your_tool_function)  # Add this line
   ```

3. **Add tests:**
   ```python
   # tests/test_your_tool.py
   import pytest
   from template_mcp_server.src.tools.your_tool import your_tool_function

   @pytest.mark.asyncio
   async def test_your_tool():
       result = await your_tool_function("test_param")
       assert result["result"] == "success"
   ```

4. **Update documentation**

### Adding New Resources

1. **Place assets in:** `template_mcp_server/src/tools/assets/`
2. **Create resource handler in:** `template_mcp_server/src/tools/`
3. **Register in:** `template_mcp_server/src/mcp.py`
4. **Add tests and documentation**

### Code Review Guidelines

- All changes require pull request review
- Automated checks must pass (tests, linting, type checking)
- Documentation should be updated for user-facing changes
- Breaking changes require discussion and versioning consideration

### Getting Help

- **Issues**: Open GitHub issues for bugs or feature requests
- **Discussions**: Use GitHub Discussions for questions
- **Documentation**: Check existing docs and code examples
- **Testing**: Provide minimal reproduction cases for bugs
