What is Mcp Websocket

mcp-websocket is a server that implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) with enhancements for WebSocket, allowing real-time data updates and push notifications to clients.

Use cases

Use cases include real-time dashboards for data visualization, stock price updates, notifications for changes in collaborative tools, and any application that benefits from immediate data availability.

How to use

To use mcp-websocket, clone the repository, install the necessary dependencies, and run the server using the command ‘python server.py’. Clients can connect to the WebSocket server at ‘ws://localhost:8765’ to subscribe for updates and send MCP requests to ‘http://localhost:8080’.

Key features

Key features include a standard MCP server on port 8080, a WebSocket server on port 8765 for real-time updates, push notifications for subscribed clients, and an async architecture using asyncio for efficient operations.

Where to use

mcp-websocket can be used in applications requiring real-time data updates, such as financial services, live data monitoring systems, and collaborative applications where instant notifications are essential.

MCP WebSocket Server

This project implements an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server with WebSocket enhancements for real-time data updates. It allows clients to make standard MCP requests while also enabling WebSocket-based subscriptions to receive push notifications when new data becomes available.

Features

• MCP Server (Port 8080): Handles standard MCP requests from clients.
• WebSocket Server (Port 8765): Allows clients to subscribe for real-time updates.
• Push Notifications: Sends updates to all subscribed clients when new data is available.
• Async Architecture: Uses asyncio for efficient non-blocking operations.

Installation

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/your-repo/mcp-websocket-server.git
   cd mcp-websocket-server
   

2. Install dependencies:

   pip install websockets mcp-sdk  # Replace with actual MCP SDK package name
   

Usage

Start the Server

Run the following command to start both the MCP and WebSocket servers:

python server.py

Connecting via WebSockets

Clients can connect to the WebSocket server (ws://localhost:8765) and subscribe to updates by sending:

{
  "action": "subscribe"
}

Sending MCP Requests

MCP clients can send requests to the MCP server at http://localhost:8080 with a payload like:

{
  "method": "get_data"
}

The server will respond with:

{
  "result": "Here is your data!"
}
