openapi-mcp-generator v1.0.4

OpenAPI to MCP Generator

A command-line tool that generates Model Context Protocol (MCP) server code from OpenAPI specifications. This tool helps you quickly create an MCP server that acts as a bridge between LLMs (Large Language Models) and your API.

Features

• Automatic Tool Generation: Converts each API endpoint in your OpenAPI spec into an MCP tool
• Multiple Transport Options: Supports stdio, WebSocket, and HTTP transport methods
• Complete Project Setup: Generates all necessary files to run an MCP server
• TypeScript Support: Includes TypeScript definitions and configuration
• Easy Configuration: Simple environment-based configuration for the generated server

Installation

# Install globally from npm
npm install -g openapi-mcp-generator

# Or with yarn
yarn global add openapi-mcp-generator

# Or with pnpm
pnpm add -g openapi-mcp-generator

Usage

Generate an MCP server from an OpenAPI specification:

openapi-mcp-generator --openapi path/to/openapi.json --output /Path/to/output

Command Line Options

Examples

Generate from a local OpenAPI file:

openapi-mcp-generator --openapi ./specs/petstore.json --output ./petstore-mcp

Generate from a remote OpenAPI URL:

openapi-mcp-generator --openapi https://petstore3.swagger.io/api/v3/openapi.json --output ./petstore-mcp

Specify a WebSocket transport:

openapi-mcp-generator --openapi ./specs/petstore.json --transport websocket --port 8080

Generated Files

The tool generates the following files in the output directory:

• server.js - The main MCP server implementation
• package.json - Dependencies and scripts
• README.md - Documentation for the generated server
• .env.example - Template for environment variables
• types.d.ts - TypeScript type definitions for the API
• tsconfig.json - TypeScript configuration

Using the Generated Server

After generating your MCP server:

1. Navigate to the generated directory:

   cd my-mcp-server

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Create an environment file:

   cp .env.example .env

4. Edit .env to set your API base URL and any required headers:

   API_BASE_URL=https://api.example.com
   API_HEADERS=Authorization:Bearer your-token-here

5. Start the server:

   npm start

Requirements

• Node.js 16.x or higher
• npm 7.x or higher
