Project description

mcp-mysql-server

Repository: https://github.com/Shubham9975/mcp-mysql-server.git

A MySQL server implementation for the MCP (Model Control Protocol) framework. This server allows you to interact with MySQL databases through the MCP protocol, enabling SQL execution, table/resource listing, and schema retrieval.

Features

  • Execute SQL queries
  • List MySQL tables as resources
  • Get table schemas
  • Configurable through environment variables
  • Supports various MySQL character sets and collations

Installation

From PyPI

pip install mcp-mysql-server

From Source (GitHub)

git clone https://github.com/Shubham9975/mcp-mysql-server.git
cd mcp-mysql-server
pip install .

Or for development (editable) mode:

pip install -e .

Configuration

Set the following environment variables (required for connection):

  • MYSQL_HOST: MySQL server host (default: "localhost")
  • MYSQL_PORT: MySQL server port (default: 3306)
  • MYSQL_USER: MySQL username (required)
  • MYSQL_PASSWORD: MySQL password (required)
  • MYSQL_DATABASE: MySQL database name (required)
  • MYSQL_CHARSET: MySQL character set (default: "utf8mb4")
  • MYSQL_COLLATION: MySQL collation (default: "utf8mb4_unicode_ci")
  • MYSQL_SQL_MODE: MySQL SQL mode (default: "TRADITIONAL")

Example:

export MYSQL_USER="your_user"
export MYSQL_PASSWORD="your_password"
export MYSQL_DATABASE="your_database"

Usage

After setting environment variables, start the server:

mcp-mysql-server

MCP/Claude/Cursor Integration

Add this to your MCP configuration (e.g., ~/.cursor/mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mysql-server": {
      "command": "mcp-mysql-server",
      "env": {
        "MYSQL_HOST": "localhost",
        "MYSQL_USER": "your_user",
        "MYSQL_PASSWORD": "your_password",
        "MYSQL_DATABASE": "your_database"
      }
    }
  }
}

Available Tools

execute_sql

Execute an SQL query on the MySQL server.

Example:

SELECT * FROM users LIMIT 10;

Available Resources

  • mysql://tables — List all tables in the database.
  • mysql://table/{table_name} — Get the schema of a specific table. Example: mysql://table/users

Development

  • All main code is in the mysql_server/ directory.
  • Use pip install -e . for editable installs during development.
  • If you add tests, place them in a tests/ directory.
