Walkthrough

The README for Gmail API integration with MindsDB was enhanced with additional guidance on OAuth client ID creation, including an alternative application type option. It added detailed instructions for placing the Gmail API credentials JSON inside the MindsDB Docker container, with an example Docker run command. The example SQL command was updated to reference the correct credentials path inside the container.

Changes

File(s) Change Summary
mindsdb-mcp/README.md Added OAuth client type alternative, instructions for placing Gmail API credentials JSON into Docker container, updated example SQL command with exact credentials path, and minor formatting fixes.

Poem

In README fields where guidance grows,
A rabbit hops and clearly shows—
How to place your secrets right,
In Docker’s warren, out of sight.
OAuth’s path is now less wild,
With every step neatly compiled!

224-230: Approve the Docker mount example for credentials.

The -v flag example clearly demonstrates how to mount the downloaded JSON into the container, which will help users avoid manual copy-paste pitfalls when placing credentials inside MindsDB.

⚠️ Potential issue

Remove duplicate PARAMETERS block in SQL snippet.

The current snippet has two PARAMETERS = { lines and an extra closing brace, which is invalid SQL/JSON syntax. Consolidate into a single block:

-```SQL
-CREATE DATABASE mindsdb_gmail
-WITH ENGINE = 'gmail',
-PARAMETERS = {
-PARAMETERS = {
-  "credentials_file": "/mindsdb/mindsdb/integrations/handlers/gmail_handler/client_secret.json",
-  "scopes": ['https://.../gmail.compose', 'https://.../gmail.readonly']
-};
-};
-```
+```sql
+CREATE DATABASE mindsdb_gmail
+WITH ENGINE = 'gmail',
+PARAMETERS = {
+  "credentials_file": "/mindsdb/mindsdb/integrations/handlers/gmail_handler/client_secret.json",
+  "scopes": ['https://.../gmail.compose', 'https://.../gmail.readonly']
+};
+```
🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In mindsdb-mcp/README.md around lines 245 to 249, the SQL snippet incorrectly
contains a duplicate PARAMETERS block and an extra closing brace, causing
invalid syntax. Remove the duplicate PARAMETERS = { line and the extra closing
brace so that there is only one PARAMETERS block enclosing the credentials_file
and scopes entries. Ensure the snippet starts with PARAMETERS = { and ends with
a single closing brace followed by a semicolon.

224-230: Fix port mapping mismatch in Docker run example

The example still maps the MCP API to port 47335, but earlier instructions and the MCP server use 47337. Update to ensure the container’s port matches the rest of the guide.

212-212: Refine wording and correct verb form

The line uses “setup” (noun) instead of “set up” (verb) and could benefit from clearer adverbial phrasing and a comma before “and.”

224-230: Address port mapping mismatch in Docker run example.

The snippet still maps port 47335 instead of 47337, which will prevent the MCP server on 47337 from being reachable (see line 66). This issue was noted in a previous review. Apply this diff:

-      -p 47334:47334 -p 47335:47335 \

251-252: Fix parameter naming and spelling in scopes note.

The term “scoped” is unclear, and “ommitted” is misspelled. Consider:

-Note that in some cases, scoped will need to be set to `"scopes": ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.readonly',
-'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.compose']` or can be entirely ommitted.
+Note that in some cases, the scopes parameter may need to be set to:

+  "scopes": [
+    "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.readonly",
+    "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.compose"
+  ]

245-245: Correct JSON syntax in SQL PARAMETERS block.

The comma after the credentials_file entry is present, ensuring valid JSON. This aligns with the earlier recommendation to fix the missing comma.
