# Altibase MCP Server ## Overview - A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation that provides database interaction and business intelligence capabilities through Altibase. - This server enables running SQL queries, analyzing business data, and automatically generating business insight memos. - This source code is maintained on https://github.com/hesslee/mcp-server-altibase - This source code is based on https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers/tree/main/src/sqlite - This package is uploaded on https://pypi.org/project/mcp-server-altibase ## Components ### Resources The server exposes a single dynamic resource: - `memo://insights`: A continuously updated business insights memo that aggregates discovered insights during analysis - Auto-updates as new insights are discovered via the append-insight tool ### Prompts The server provides a demonstration prompt: - `mcp-demo`: Interactive prompt that guides users through database operations - Required argument: `topic` - The business domain to analyze - Generates appropriate database schemas and sample data - Guides users through analysis and insight generation - Integrates with the business insights memo ### Tools The server offers six core tools: #### Query Tools - `read_query` - Execute SELECT queries to read data from the database - Input: - `query` (string): The SELECT SQL query to execute - Returns: Query results as array of objects - `write_query` - Execute INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE queries - Input: - `query` (string): The SQL modification query - Returns: `{ affected_rows: number }` - `create_table` - Create new tables in the database - Input: - `query` (string): CREATE TABLE SQL statement - Returns: Confirmation of table creation #### Schema Tools - `list_tables` - Get a list of all tables in the database - No input required - Returns: Array of table names - `describe_table` - View schema information for a specific table - Input: - `table_name` (string): Name of table to describe - Returns: Array of column definitions with names and types #### Analysis Tools - `append_insight` - Add new business insights to the memo resource - Input: - `insight` (string): Business insight discovered from data analysis - Returns: Confirmation of insight addition - Triggers update of memo://insights resource ## Prereqisite - Download and install Altibase server and client from http://support.altibase.com/en/product - Unixodbc setting for Linux - ODBC DSN setting for Windows ### Unixodbc setting example for Linux - install : sudo apt-get install unixodbc-dev - example configuration : ``` $ cat /etc/odbc.ini [PYODBC] Driver = /home/hess/work/altidev4/altibase_home/lib/libaltibase_odbc-64bit-ul64.so Database = mydb ServerType = Altibase Server = 127.0.0.1 Port = 21121 UserName = SYS Password = MANAGER FetchBuffersize = 64 ReadOnly = no $ cat /etc/odbcinst.ini [ODBC] Trace=Yes TraceFile=/tmp/odbc_trace.log ``` ### ODBC DSN setting example for Windows - Altibase Windows ODBC driver is registered during Altibase Windows client installation procedure. - Add a ODBC DSN for Altibase. - example configuration : ``` [Altibase Connection Config] Windows DSN Name: PYODBC host(name or IP): 192.168.1.210 Port(default 20300): 21121 User: SYS Password: MANAGER Database: mydb NLS_USE: UTF-8 ``` ## Usage with Claude Desktop - Install Claude for desktop. ### uv - Install uv - uv is designed to be a fast and efficient alternative to pip and venv for Python package management and virtual environment creation. ### MCP client configuration example without git clone ```bash # Add the server to your claude_desktop_config.json "mcpServers": { "altibase": { "command": "uvx", "args": [ "mcp-server-altibase@latest", "--odbc-dsn", "PYODBC" ] } } ``` ### MCP client configuration example with git clone ```bash # Add the server to your claude_desktop_config.json "mcpServers": { "altibase": { "command": "uv", "args": [ "--directory", "path/to/repository/directory", "run", "mcp-server-altibase", "--odbc-dsn", "PYODBC" ] } } ``` ## License This MCP server is licensed under the MIT License.
