import json

async def call_d365fo_api():
    """Example: Using HTTP transport for web API integration"""
    
    # Start FastMCP server with HTTP transport
    # d365fo-fastmcp-server --transport http --port 8000
    
    mcp_request = {
        "jsonrpc": "2.0",
        "id": 1,
        "method": "tools/call",
        "params": {
            "name": "d365fo_query_entities",
            "arguments": {
                "entityName": "CustomersV3",
                "top": 10,
                "select": ["CustomerAccount", "Name"]
            }
        }
    }
    
    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        async with session.post(
            "http://localhost:8000/mcp",
            json=mcp_request,
            headers={"Content-Type": "application/json"}
        ) as response:
            result = await response.json()
            print(json.dumps(result, indent=2))

SSE Transport for Real-time Applications

// Example: JavaScript client for real-time D365FO data
// Start FastMCP server: d365fo-fastmcp-server --transport sse --port 8001

const eventSource = new EventSource('http://localhost:8001/sse');

eventSource.onmessage = function(event) {
    const data = JSON.parse(event.data);
    console.log('Received D365FO data:', data);
    
    // Handle real-time updates from D365FO
    if (data.method === 'notification') {
        updateDashboard(data.params);
    }
};

// Send MCP requests via SSE
function queryCustomers() {
    const request = {
        jsonrpc: "2.0",
        id: Date.now(),
        method: "tools/call",
        params: {
            name: "d365fo_search_entities",
            arguments: {
                pattern: "customer",
                limit: 50
            }
        }
    };
    
    fetch('http://localhost:8001/sse/send', {
        method: 'POST',
        headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json'},
        body: JSON.stringify(request)
    });
}

Alternative: Programmatic Usage

from d365fo_client.mcp import D365FOMCPServer

# Create and run server with custom configuration
config = {
    "default_environment": {
        "base_url": "https://your-environment.dynamics.com",
        "use_default_credentials": True
    }
}

server = D365FOMCPServer(config)
await server.run()

Basic Usage

import asyncio
from d365fo_client import D365FOClient, FOClientConfig

async def main():
    # Simple configuration with default credentials
    config = FOClientConfig(
        base_url="https://your-fo-environment.dynamics.com",
        use_default_credentials=True  # Uses Azure Default Credential
    )
    
    async with D365FOClient(config) as client:
        # Test connection
        if await client.test_connection():
            print("✅ Connected successfully!")
        
        # Get environment information
        env_info = await client.get_environment_info()
        print(f"Environment: {env_info.application_version}")
        
        # Search for entities (uses metadata cache v2)
        customer_entities = await client.search_entities("customer")
        print(f"Found {len(customer_entities)} customer entities")
        
        # Get customers with query options
        from d365fo_client import QueryOptions
        options = QueryOptions(
            select=["CustomerAccount", "Name", "SalesCurrencyCode"],
            top=10,
            orderby=["Name"]
        )
        
        customers = await client.get_data("/data/CustomersV3", options)
        print(f"Retrieved {len(customers['value'])} customers")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

Using Convenience Function

from d365fo_client import create_client

# Quick client creation with enhanced defaults
async with create_client("https://your-fo-environment.dynamics.com") as client:
    customers = await client.get_data("/data/CustomersV3", top=5)

Configuration

Environment Variable Management (New in v0.3.0)

The d365fo-client now includes a comprehensive Pydantic settings model for type-safe environment variable management:

from d365fo_client import D365FOSettings, get_settings

# Get type-safe settings instance
settings = get_settings()

# Access settings with full IntelliSense support
print(f"Base URL: {settings.base_url}")
print(f"Log Level: {settings.log_level}")
print(f"Cache Directory: {settings.cache_dir}")

# Check configuration state
if settings.has_client_credentials():
    print("Client credentials configured")

startup_mode = settings.get_startup_mode()  # "profile_only", "default_auth", "client_credentials"

# Convert to environment dictionary for external tools
env_vars = settings.to_env_dict()

Key Benefits:

Type Safety: Automatic validation and type conversion for all 35+ environment variables
IDE Support: Full IntelliSense and autocompletion for configuration options
Environment Files: Support for .env files in development
Comprehensive Defaults: Sensible defaults for all configuration options
Validation: Built-in validation for URLs, ports, timeouts, and other settings

Authentication Options

from d365fo_client import FOClientConfig

# Option 1: Default Azure credentials (recommended)
config = FOClientConfig(
    base_url="https://your-fo-environment.dynamics.com",
    use_default_credentials=True
)

# Option 2: Client credentials
config = FOClientConfig(
    base_url="https://your-fo-environment.dynamics.com",
    client_id="your-client-id",
    client_secret="your-client-secret", 
    tenant_id="your-tenant-id",
    use_default_credentials=False
)

# Option 3: Azure Key Vault integration (New in v0.2.3)
config = FOClientConfig(
    base_url="https://your-fo-environment.dynamics.com",
    credential_source="keyvault",  # Use Azure Key Vault for credentials
    keyvault_url="https://your-keyvault.vault.azure.net/"
)

# Option 4: With custom settings
config = FOClientConfig(
    base_url="https://your-fo-environment.dynamics.com",
    use_default_credentials=True,
    verify_ssl=False,  # For development environments
    timeout=60,  # Request timeout in seconds
    metadata_cache_dir="./my_cache",  # Custom cache directory
    use_label_cache=True,  # Enable label caching
    label_cache_expiry_minutes=120  # Cache for 2 hours
)

Legacy Configuration Migration (New in v0.3.0)

The d365fo-client automatically detects and migrates legacy configuration files:

Automatic Detection: Identifies legacy configuration patterns (missing verify_ssl, outdated field names)
Field Migration: Updates cache_dir → metadata_cache_dir, auth_mode → use_default_credentials
Backup Creation: Creates backup of original configuration before migration
Seamless Upgrade: Ensures smooth transition from older versions without manual intervention

# Legacy configurations are automatically migrated when FastMCP server starts
# No manual intervention required - migration happens transparently

Configuration Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
`base_url`	str	Required	D365 F&O base URL
`client_id`	str	None	Azure AD client ID
`client_secret`	str	None	Azure AD client secret
`tenant_id`	str	None	Azure AD tenant ID
`use_default_credentials`	bool	True	Use Azure Default Credential
`credential_source`	str	"environment"	Credential source: "environment", "keyvault"
`keyvault_url`	str	None	Azure Key Vault URL for credential storage
`verify_ssl`	bool	False	Verify SSL certificates
`timeout`	int	30	Request timeout in seconds
`metadata_cache_dir`	str	Platform-specific user cache	Metadata cache directory
`use_label_cache`	bool	True	Enable label caching V2
`label_cache_expiry_minutes`	int	60	Label cache expiry time
`use_cache_first`	bool	False	Enable cache-first mode with background sync

Cache Directory Behavior

By default, the client uses platform-appropriate user cache directories:

Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\d365fo-client (e.g., C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\d365fo-client)
macOS: ~/Library/Caches/d365fo-client (e.g., /Users/username/Library/Caches/d365fo-client)
Linux: ~/.cache/d365fo-client (e.g., /home/username/.cache/d365fo-client)

You can override this by explicitly setting metadata_cache_dir:

from d365fo_client import FOClientConfig

# Use custom cache directory
config = FOClientConfig(
    base_url="https://your-fo-environment.dynamics.com",
    metadata_cache_dir="/custom/cache/path"
)

# Or get the default cache directory programmatically
from d365fo_client import get_user_cache_dir

cache_dir = get_user_cache_dir("my-app")  # Platform-appropriate cache dir
config = FOClientConfig(
    base_url="https://your-fo-environment.dynamics.com", 
    metadata_cache_dir=str(cache_dir)
)

Testing

This project includes comprehensive testing at multiple levels to ensure reliability and quality.

Unit Tests

Run standard unit tests for core functionality:

# Run all unit tests
uv run pytest

# Run with coverage
uv run pytest --cov=d365fo_client --cov-report=html

# Run specific test file
uv run pytest tests/test_client.py -v

Integration Tests

The project includes a sophisticated multi-tier integration testing framework:

Quick Start

# Run sandbox integration tests (recommended)
.\tests\integration\integration-test-simple.ps1 test-sandbox

# Run mock server tests (no external dependencies)
.\tests\integration\integration-test-simple.ps1 test-mock

# Run with verbose output
.\tests\integration\integration-test-simple.ps1 test-sandbox -VerboseOutput

Test Levels

Mock Server Tests - Fast, isolated tests against a simulated D365 F&O API
- No external dependencies
- Complete API simulation
- Ideal for CI/CD pipelines
Sandbox Tests ⭐ (Default) - Tests against real D365 F&O test environments
- Validates authentication
- Tests real API behavior
- Requires test environment access
Live Tests - Optional tests against production environments
- Final validation
- Performance benchmarking
- Use with caution
