OpenAPI based MCP

OpenAPI MCP

OpenAPI based MCP that creates a FastMCP server from an OpenAPI specification.

Build and Install

This project uses uv for dependency management and requires Python 3.12 or higher.

Prerequisites

1. Install Python 3.12 or higher
2. Install uv:

   curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
   

Installation Steps

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <repository-url>
   cd openapimcp
   

2. Install the project in editable mode:

   uv pip install -e .
   

   This will:

   • Install all required dependencies (fastmcp and httpx)
   • Create the openapimcp command-line tool
   • Make the project available for development

3. Verify the installation:

   openapimcp --help
   

Alternative: Using uvx

You can also run the tool directly without installation using uvx:

uvx openapimcp

This is particularly useful for the example configurations in the examples directory.

Usage

The openapimcp command-line tool creates a FastMCP server from an OpenAPI specification. The tool is configured using environment variables.

Configuration

The following environment variables are available for configuration:

• API_BASE_URL: The base URL of the API.
• OPENAPI_SPEC_URL: The URL of the OpenAPI specification.
• SERVER_NAME: The name of the MCP server.
• BEARER_TOKEN: The bearer token for authentication.
• USERNAME: The username for basic authentication.
• PASSWORD: The password for basic authentication.

Running the server

To run the server, you can use the openapimcp script, which is created during the installation. You need to set the environment variables before running the script.

For example:

export API_BASE_URL="http://localhost:3000/v1"
export OPENAPI_SPEC_URL="http://localhost/local/openapi/gal-inq.json"
export SERVER_NAME="Galicia Inquiries API"
openapimcp

Examples

The examples directory contains several example configurations that can be used to run the server. These examples are in the form of JSON files that define the environment variables for different services.

For example, to run the gal-mock example, you can use the environment variables defined in examples/gal-mock/gal-inq.json.

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "galInq": {
            "command": "uvx",
            "args": [
                "openapimcp"
            ],
            "env": {
                "SERVER_NAME": "Galicia Inquiries API",
                "OPENAPI_SPEC_URL": "http://localhost/local/openapi/gal-inq.json",
                "API_BASE_URL": "http://localhost:3000/v1"
            }
        }
    }
}

This configuration can be used with a tool that consumes mcpServers definitions to start the MCP server with the specified environment.
