MCP Container

A Docker-based Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation that provides weather information through a standardized interface.

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standardized way for AI applications to interact with external tools and data sources. This container provides a weather information service that can be used by Claude and other MCP-compatible AI assistants.

Prerequisites

Docker Desktop installed and running
Claude Desktop (for using the MCP server)
- Download Claude Desktop
Git (for cloning the repository)

Installation

1. Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/Pimmetjeoss/MCP_container.git
cd MCP_container

2. Build the Docker Image

docker build -t mcp-server .

This will create a Docker image with Python 3.11 and all necessary dependencies.

3. Run the Container

docker run -d --name mcp-weather-server mcp-server

The container will start and run the MCP weather server.

Configuration

Connect to Claude Desktop

To use this MCP server with Claude Desktop, add the following configuration to your Claude Desktop settings:

Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json Mac/Linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "weather": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": ["exec", "-i", "mcp-weather-server", "python", "/app/weather.py"]
    }
  }
}

After updating the configuration, restart Claude Desktop.

Usage

Once configured, you can ask Claude to get weather information:

"What's the weather in Amsterdam?"
"Show me the forecast for New York"
"Get weather data for Tokyo"

The MCP server will respond with temperature, conditions, and humidity information.

Available Tools

This MCP server provides the following tool:

get-weather: Get current weather information for any city
- Input: city (string) - Name of the city
- Output: Temperature (°C), conditions, and humidity (%)
