🎯 Usage Examples

Connect from Python Client

import requests
import json

# SSE endpoint
url = "http://localhost:8080/sse"

# List products
payload = {
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "tools/call",
    "params": {
        "name": "list_products",
        "arguments": {
            "query": "shirt",
            "per_page": 10
        }
    },
    "id": 1
}

response = requests.post(url, json=payload)
print(response.json())

Connect from cURL

# List products
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/sse \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "tools/call",
    "params": {
      "name": "list_products",
      "arguments": {
        "published": true,
        "per_page": 20
      }
    },
    "id": 1
  }'

Advanced Examples

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/sse \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "tools/call",
    "params": {
      "name": "list_products",

🐳 Docker Commands

# Build
docker-compose build

# Start
docker-compose up -d

# Logs
docker-compose logs -f tiendanube-mcp

# Restart
docker-compose restart

# Stop
docker-compose down

# Remove everything
docker-compose down -v --rmi all

# Shell access
docker exec -it tiendanube-mcp-server bash

🔐 Security Notes

1. Never commit .env file - Add to .gitignore
2. Use environment-specific tokens - Separate dev/prod credentials
3. Enable HTTPS - Use reverse proxy (nginx/traefik) for production
4. Rate limiting - Consider adding rate limits for production
5. CORS configuration - Configure allowed origins if exposing publicly

🔄 Updating

# Pull latest changes
git pull

# Rebuild
docker-compose down
docker-compose build --no-cache
docker-compose up -d

📝 Logging

Logs are configured with rotation:

• Max size: 10MB per file
• Max files: 3
• Location: Docker logs (use docker-compose logs)

View logs:

# All logs
docker-compose logs -f

# Last 100 lines
docker-compose logs --tail=100

# Specific service
docker-compose logs -f tiendanube-mcp

🐛 Troubleshooting

Server won't start

# Check logs
docker-compose logs tiendanube-mcp

# Verify environment variables
docker-compose config

# Test API credentials
curl -H "Authentication: bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  https://api.tiendanube.com/v1/YOUR_STORE_ID/store

Connection refused

• Verify port 8080 is not in use: netstat -tuln | grep 8080
• Check firewall settings
• Ensure container is running: docker ps

Permission errors

# Fix permissions
chmod +x start.sh

🌟 Production Deployment

With Nginx Reverse Proxy

server {
    listen 443 ssl http2;
    server_name mcp.yourdomain.com;

    ssl_certificate /path/to/cert.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /path/to/key.pem;

    location /sse {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:8080/sse;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
        
        # SSE specific
        proxy_buffering off;
        proxy_read_timeout 86400;
    }
}
