Bakery API with MCP Support

This API demonstrates integrating Model Context Protocol (MCP) with a FastAPI application for a bakery availability checker.

Features

• Checks if bakery items are available
• Uses MCP Fetch server for API calls
• Uses MCP Filesystem server for local file access
• Provides fallback responses when MCP servers are unavailable

Deployment Options

Option 1: Direct Deployment (Render)

1. Deploy to Render using the render.yaml configuration
2. Ensure the build.sh script installs all required dependencies
3. The API will run using the updated bakery_api_with_mcp.py file with proper MCP initialization

Option 2: Docker Deployment

1. Build and run with Docker:

   docker build -t bakery-api .
   docker run -p 8000:8000 bakery-api
   

2. Or use Docker Compose:

   docker-compose up
   

Troubleshooting MCP Server Issues

If you encounter MCP initialization errors:

1. Check that MCP module paths in fastagent.config.yaml are correct
2. Ensure you have the latest MCP package versions
3. Try running in a local environment first to validate configuration
4. Use the Docker approach for more consistent environment isolation

API Usage

• GET /: Check API status
• GET /check?item=bread: Check item availability (GET method)
• POST /check: Check item availability with JSON request body:

  {
    "query": "Can I order a cake for Saturday?"
  }
  

Endpoints

• GET / - Returns basic API info
• POST /check - Checks if an item is available on a specific day

How to Use

Send a POST request to /check with a query string like:

"Can I order a croissant on Monday?"

The API will check:

1. If the bakery is open on that day
2. If the item is on the menu

Deployment

This API is deployed on Render.
