create rich menu operation #121

4geru · 2025-06-08T14:25:33Z

Hello Maintainers! 👋

Thank you for maintaining this excellent LINE Bot MCP Server project. I'm excited to contribute a new feature that adds dynamic rich menu creation capabilities. I hope this enhancement will be valuable for the community.

Background

The LINE Bot MCP Server needed functionality to create rich menus dynamically. Previously, users had to manually create rich menu images and configure them individually. There was a need for a flexible, text-based approach to generate rich menus programmatically.

Todo

1. Implemented Rich Menu Creation Feature

Added new create_rich_menu tool
Implemented automatic rich menu generation that accepts chat bar text and action arrays

2. Built Template System

Created 6 rich menu templates (Markdown format) supporting 1-6 items
Placed templates in richmenu-templates/ directory
Added example images in richmenu-examples/ for reference

3. Implemented Image Generation Pipeline

Used Marp to convert Markdown templates to HTML
Used Puppeteer to convert HTML to PNG images with specified dimensions (1600x910px)
Uploaded generated images to LINE Messaging API

4. Defined LINE Bot Action Schema

Created src/common/schema/actionSchema.ts with schemas for 9 action types (postback, message, uri, datetimepicker, camera, cameraRoll, location, richmenuswitch, clipboard)
Implemented type-safe validation using Zod

5. Added Dependencies

@marp-team/marp-core: For Markdown to slide generation
@marp-team/marp-cli: Marp command-line tools

Verified

Functionality

All templates (1-6 items) work correctly
Placeholders (item01 ' ~ ' item06) in Markdown templates are properly replaced with action labels
Generated images comply with LINE specifications (1600x910px)
Complete workflow from rich menu creation, image upload, to default setting works

Error Handling

Proper error responses for invalid action counts (< 1 or > 6)
Error catching at each stage: Marp conversion, Puppeteer execution, LINE API calls
Proper cleanup of temporary files

Technical Aspects

Proper management and deletion of temporary files (HTML, PNG)
Proper cleanup of Puppeteer browser instances
Correct usage of both LINE Messaging API Client and Blob Client

Result

This implementation enables automatic generation of visually appealing rich menus using only text-based configuration, significantly improving the developer experience for LINE Bot creators.

@eucyt Hello Euchi-san. I updated to separate the tools file.
Also, I can generate and upload the rich menu.

However, it cannot open in my app. LINE app stands up many times, and restarts...
Could you support me...? 🙇 🙇

Is this issue still occurring? If it is still happening, could you please provide the steps to reproduce it, specifically what is happening, and what the expected behavior should be? 🙏

This is awesome! Thank you for implementing this wonderful tool. This greatly expands the possibilities of line-bot-mcp-server.

I was unable to run this tool with Docker on my local. I encountered the following error. Is it possible to make it compatible with Docker? (I'm also concerned about whether screenshots will work. However, if this tool could be used with Docker, it would be quite convenient 😄 )

{"error":{"errno":-2,"code":"ENOENT","syscall":"open","path":"/app/richmenu-templetes/templete-02.md"},"createRichMenuResponse":{"richMenuId":"richmenu-828cebe92610f4649aab4b0a8ea05d17"},"setImageResponse":null,"setDefaultResponse":null}

I'm going to try with Docker. I tried from dist/index.js.

I tested to work well with the Docker.
font issue was too difficult, so I'd taken the time.

This issue was not solved :). Some accounts are dead. 😃 However, this tool is updated.

@4geru san
I don't fully understand the issue you're consulting about, so could you first tell me about the problem that's occurring?

Are you saying that the LINE client application in smartphone keeps crashing? In other words, is this directly unrelated to the line-bot-mcp-server or LINE Official Account? I would appreciate if you could explain the steps that lead to this malfunction.

4geru · 2025-09-06T01:15:10Z

Are you saying that the LINE client application in smartphone keeps crashing?

Yes, LINE client application in smartphone was clashed. However, the currently version is not crashed.

@eucyt Could you review this PR again?

@4geru
Sorry for the delay.

It’s mostly LGTM!
I was able to confirm it works with Docker and Node 🎉
I’ve left a few comments on some minor points, so please address those and resolve the conflicts.

How about adding finally block and unlinking there?
