What is Mcp Server For Sensor Device

MCP-Server-for-sensor-device is a Node.js application designed to simulate a CO2 sensor device and provide a JSON-RPC server for interaction. It can operate in both simulation mode with random CO2 levels and real mode by connecting to a Raspberry Pi Pico to read actual CO2 levels.

Use cases

Use cases include simulating CO2 levels for testing applications, integrating with IoT systems for real-time monitoring, and educational purposes for teaching about sensor technologies and data handling.

How to use

To use MCP-Server-for-sensor-device, first ensure Node.js is installed. Clone the repository, install dependencies with ‘npm install’, and configure the ‘claude_desktop_config.json’ file. Start the server by running ‘node index.js’.

Key features

Key features include simulating a CO2 sensor with random levels, connecting to a Raspberry Pi Pico for real readings, providing device information and sensor data via JSON-RPC, and supporting commands for MQTT data publishing and WiFi reconnection.

Where to use

MCP-Server-for-sensor-device can be used in various fields such as environmental monitoring, smart home systems, and educational projects involving sensor data simulation and real-time CO2 level tracking.

MCP Server for sensor device

This project is a Node.js application designed for use with Claude Desktop. It simulates a CO2 sensor device and provides a JSON-RPC server to interact with the device. The application can run in both simulation mode and real mode, where it connects to a Raspberry Pi Pico via USB to read CO2 levels.

Features

• Simulates a CO2 sensor device with random CO2 levels in simulation mode.
• Connects to a Raspberry Pi Pico via USB to read real CO2 levels.
• Provides device information, sensor data, and network status via JSON-RPC.
• Supports commands to publish data to MQTT, reconnect WiFi, and reconnect MQTT (some functionalities are mocked).

Installation

You need to have Node.js installed on your machine to run this application. If you don’t have Node.js installed, you can download it from the official website.

1. Clone the repository.

2. Install the dependencies using npm:

   npm install
   

Configuration

Ensure that the claude_desktop_config.json file is correctly configured to run the server. Example configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "CO2 sensor": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "...mcp-server-for-sensor-device/index.js"
      ],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

Usage

To start the server, run the following command:

node index.js

JSON-RPC Methods

initialize

Initializes the server and returns server capabilities.

shutdown

Shuts down the server.

resources/list

Lists available resources.

resources/read

Reads the specified resource.

tools/list

Lists available tools.

tools/call

Calls the specified tool.

DeviceState Class

The DeviceState class simulates the device state and provides methods to get device information, sensor data, and network status. It also handles the connection to the Raspberry Pi Pico and reads CO2 levels.

Methods

• getDeviceInfo(): Returns device information.
• getSensorData(): Returns sensor data.
• getNetworkStatus(): Returns network status (mocked functionality).
• publishToMQTT(): Simulates publishing data to MQTT (mocked functionality).
• reconnectWiFi(): Simulates reconnecting to WiFi (mocked functionality).
• reconnectMQTT(): Simulates reconnecting to MQTT (mocked functionality).

Logging

The application logs CO2 levels and other information to a log file located in the user’s home directory (co2_level.log).
