Overview

What is MCP Server?

MCP Server is a Python-based MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides the current USD exchange rate, weather forecast, and news from the last week. It is intended for developers who want to integrate these external data sources into MCP-compatible applications.

How to use MCP Server?

Clone the repository, create a Python virtual environment, install dependencies, and set up API keys for exchangerate-api, openweathermap, and newsapi in a .env file. Run the server with python mcp_server.py – it becomes available at http://localhost:8000. A self‑written client can be launched with python mcp_client.py. Docker deployment is also supported via docker-compose.

Key features of MCP Server

  • Provides current USD exchange rate from exchangerate-api.com.
  • Delivers weather forecast from openweathermap.org.
  • Supplies news articles from the last week via newsapi.org.
  • Written in Python and follows the MCP protocol.
  • Includes a test suite runnable with pytest.
  • Docker‑Compose files for containerized server and client.

Use cases of MCP Server

  • Get a weather forecast for a location using an MCP client.
  • Retrieve recent news headlines for aggregation or analysis.
  • Serve as a learning example for building an MCP server in Python.
  • Deploy a lightweight data gateway using Docker containers.
