# MySQL MCP Server
This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides access to a MySQL database. It allows agent to execute SQL queries against a MySQL database.
## Features
- Execute SQL queries against a MySQL database:
- Read data (SELECT statements)
- Create tables (CREATE TABLE statements)
- Insert data (INSERT INTO statements)
- Update data (UPDATE statements)
- Delete data (DELETE FROM statements)
- Returns query results in JSON format
- Configurable database connection settings
- Transaction logging with unique IDs
## Prerequisites
- Node.js (v14 or higher)
- MySQL server
- MCP SDK
## Installation
1. Clone or download this repository
2. Install dependencies:
```bash
cd mysql-mcp-server
npm install
```
3. Build the server:
```bash
npm run build
```
## Configuration
The MySQL MCP server uses the following environment variables for configuration:
- `MYSQL_HOST`: MySQL server hostname (default: 'localhost')
- `MYSQL_PORT`: MySQL server port (default: 3306)
- `MYSQL_USER`: MySQL username (default: 'mcp101')
- `MYSQL_PASSWORD`: MySQL password (default: '123qwe')
- `MYSQL_DATABASE`: MySQL database name (default: 'mcpdb')
## Database Setup
1. Create a MySQL database:
```sql
CREATE DATABASE mcpdb;
```
2. Create a MySQL user with access to the database:
```sql
CREATE USER 'mcp101'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '123qwe';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON mcpdb.* TO 'mcp101'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
```
3. Create a test table with sample data:
```sql
USE mcpdb;
CREATE TABLE test_users (
id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
name VARCHAR(100),
email VARCHAR(100),
created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
);
INSERT INTO test_users (name, email) VALUES
('John Doe', 'john@example.com'),
('Jane Smith', 'jane@example.com'),
('Bob Johnson', 'bob@example.com');
```
## MCP Configuration
Add the MySQL MCP server to your MCP settings file:
### VSCode (Claude Extension)
File: `~/Library/Application Support/Code/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json`
Change the args according your MySQL configuruation
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"mysql-mcp-server": {
"autoApprove": [],
"disabled": false,
"timeout": 60,
"command": "node",
"args": [
"/path/to/mysql-mcp-server/build/index.js"
],
"env": {
"MYSQL_HOST": "localhost",
"MYSQL_PORT": "3306",
"MYSQL_USER": "mcp101",
"MYSQL_PASSWORD": "123qwe",
"MYSQL_DATABASE": "mcpdb"
},
"transportType": "stdio"
}
}
}
```
### Claude Desktop App
File: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"mysql-mcp-server": {
"autoApprove": [],
"disabled": false,
"timeout": 60,
"command": "node",
"args": [
"/path/to/mysql-mcp-server/build/index.js"
],
"env": {
"MYSQL_HOST": "localhost",
"MYSQL_PORT": "3306",
"MYSQL_USER": "mcp101",
"MYSQL_PASSWORD": "123qwe",
"MYSQL_DATABASE": "mcpdb"
},
"transportType": "stdio"
}
}
}
```
## Usage
Once configured, you can use the MySQL MCP server in your conversations with Claude. For example:
"Can you show me all the users in the test_users table?"
Claude will use the `run_sql_query` tool to execute:
```sql
SELECT * FROM test_users
```
## Available Tools
### run_sql_query
Executes a read-only SQL query (SELECT statements only) against the MySQL database.
Parameters:
- `query`: The SQL SELECT query to execute.
Example:
```json
{
"query": "SELECT * FROM test_users"
}
```
### create_table
Creates a new table in the MySQL database.
Parameters:
- `query`: The SQL CREATE TABLE query to execute.
Example:
```json
{
"query": "CREATE TABLE products (id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, name VARCHAR(100), price DECIMAL(10,2))"
}
```
### insert_data
Inserts data into a table in the MySQL database.
Parameters:
- `query`: The SQL INSERT INTO query to execute.
Example:
```json
{
"query": "INSERT INTO products (name, price) VALUES ('Laptop', 999.99), ('Smartphone', 499.99)"
}
```
### update_data
Updates data in a table in the MySQL database.
Parameters:
- `query`: The SQL UPDATE query to execute.
Example:
```json
{
"query": "UPDATE products SET price = 899.99 WHERE name = 'Laptop'"
}
```
### delete_data
Deletes data from a table in the MySQL database.
Parameters:
- `query`: The SQL DELETE FROM query to execute.
Example:
```json
{
"query": "DELETE FROM products WHERE name = 'Smartphone'"
}
```
## Security Considerations
- Use a dedicated MySQL user with appropriate privileges for the MCP server
- Consider using read-only privileges if you only need to query data
- Store sensitive information like database credentials securely
- All operations are logged with unique transaction IDs for auditing
