Does mcp_redis support starting in SSE mode?

[leeray]

I set the environment variable MCP_TRANSPORT=sse, and then successfully started the mcp server by running python main.py.

log:
(python3.12.2) leeray@LR-MacBook-Pro  ~/Workspaces/Ailink/mcp_redis/src  ↰ main ±  python main.py
Starting the RedisMCPServer
INFO: Started server process [77993]
INFO: Waiting for application startup.
INFO: Application startup complete.
INFO: Uvicorn running on http://0.0.0.0:8000 (Press CTRL+C to quit)

However, when I accessed port 8000 through the browser, I got nothing.

It is obvious that I used the wrong method, I have successfully invoked the mcp-redis method through the sse approach.

Hello @leeray, Thanks. I will leave it here in case anybody hits a similar problem.

The server is available at:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/sse

You can test the configuration for VS Code, for example, using GitHub Copilot

    "mcp": {
        "servers": {
            "redis-mcp": {
                "type": "sse",
                "url": "http://127.0.0.1:8000/sse"
            },
        }
    },

There is an example from the FastMCP docs.

I will improve the README.
