A powerful MySQL/MariaDB database navigation tool using MCP (Model Control Protocol).

Project description

MySQL Navigator MCP

A powerful MySQL/MariaDB database navigation tool using MCP (Model Control Protocol) for easy database querying and management.

Features

  • Connect to MySQL/MariaDB databases
  • Switch between different databases dynamically
  • Execute SQL queries with type safety
  • Retrieve database schema information
  • Pydantic model validation for query parameters
  • Secure credential management
  • Comprehensive logging system
  • Connection pooling and retry mechanisms
  • SSL/TLS support for secure connections

Log File Location (Cross-Platform)

By default, all logs are written to:

  • Windows: C:\Users\<YourUsername>\.mcp\mcp-db.log
  • macOS/Linux: /home/<yourusername>/.mcp/mcp-db.log or /Users/<yourusername>/.mcp/mcp-db.log

If the .mcp folder does not exist in your home directory, the application will automatically create it. If you run into any issues, you can manually create the folder:

Windows:

mkdir $env:USERPROFILE\.mcp

macOS/Linux:

mkdir -p ~/.mcp

Installation

From PyPI (recommended for most users):

pip install mcp-db-navigator

From source (for development):

git clone <your-repo-url>
cd mcp-db
pip install -e .
  1. Create a .env file with your database credentials:
DB_HOST=your_host
DB_PORT=your_port
DB_NAME=your_database_name
DB_USER=your_username
DB_PASSWORD=your_password
DB_SSL_CA=/path/to/ssl/ca.pem  # Optional: for SSL/TLS connections
DB_MAX_RETRIES=3  # Optional: number of connection retries
DB_RETRY_DELAY=1.0  # Optional: delay between retries in seconds

Usage Examples

1. Command Line

Run the MCP server directly from your terminal:

mcp-db --config /path/to/your/project/.env

2. In Cursor

To use this MCP server in Cursor:

  • Open Cursor settings and add a new MCP server.
  • Use the following configuration (example):
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mysql-navigator": {
      "command": "mcp-db",
      "args": [
        "--config",
        "/absolute/path/to/your/.env"
      ]
    }
  }
}
  • Make sure the path to your .env file is absolute.

3. In Claude Desktop

If Claude Desktop supports MCP servers:

  • Add a new MCP server and point it to the mcp-db command with the --config argument as above.
  • Refer to Claude Desktop's documentation for details on adding custom MCP servers.

Query Parameters

The query dictionary supports the following parameters:

  • table_name (required): Name of the table to query
  • select_fields (optional): List of fields to select (defaults to ["*"])
  • where_conditions (optional): Dictionary of field-value pairs for WHERE clause
  • order_by (optional): List of fields to order by
  • order_direction (optional): Sort direction "ASC" or "DESC" (default: "ASC")
  • limit (optional): Number of records to return
  • offset (optional): Number of records to skip
  • group_by (optional): List of fields to group by
  • having (optional): Dictionary of field-value pairs for HAVING clause
  • join_table (optional): Name of the table to join with
  • join_type (optional): Type of JOIN operation (default: "INNER")
  • join_conditions (optional): Dictionary of join conditions

Security Features

  • Database credentials are managed through a config file
  • Passwords are stored as SecretStr in Pydantic models
  • Input validation for all query parameters
  • SQL injection prevention through parameterized queries
  • SSL/TLS support for encrypted connections
  • Connection string sanitization
  • Rate limiting for queries
  • Query parameter sanitization

Production Features

Error Handling
