Development
Building and Publishing
To prepare the package for distribution:
1. Sync dependencies and update lockfile:
uv sync
2. Build package distributions:
uv build
This will create source and wheel distributions in the dist/ directory.
3. Publish to PyPI:
uv publish
Note: You'll need to set PyPI credentials via environment variables or command flags:
- Token: --token or UV_PUBLISH_TOKEN
- Or username/password: --username/UV_PUBLISH_USERNAME and --password/UV_PUBLISH_PASSWORD
Debugging
Since MCP servers run over stdio, debugging can be challenging. For the best debugging
experience, we strongly recommend using the MCP Inspector.
You can launch the MCP Inspector via npm with this command:
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uv --directory yourdir run mcp-jina-reader
Upon launching, the Inspector will display a URL that you can access in your browser to begin debugging.
