Hologres MCP Server

Hologres MCP Server serves as a universal interface between AI Agents and Hologres databases. It enables seamless communication between AI Agents and Hologres, helping AI Agents retrieve Hologres database metadata and execute SQL operations.

Configuration

Mode 1: Using Local File

Download

Download from Github

git clone https://github.com/aliyun/alibabacloud-hologres-mcp-server.git

MCP Integration

Add the following configuration to the MCP client configuration file:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "hologres-mcp-server": {
            "command": "uv",
            "args": [
                "--directory",
                "/path/to/alibabacloud-hologres-mcp-server",
                "run",
                "hologres-mcp-server"
            ],
            "env": {
                "HOLOGRES_HOST": "host",
                "HOLOGRES_PORT": "port",
                "HOLOGRES_USER": "access_id",
                "HOLOGRES_PASSWORD": "access_key",
                "HOLOGRES_DATABASE": "database"
            }
        }
    }
}

Mode 2: Using PIP Mode

Installation

Install MCP Server using the following package:

pip install hologres-mcp-server

MCP Integration

Add the following configuration to the MCP client configuration file:

Use uv mode

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "hologres-mcp-server": {
            "command": "uv",
            "args": [
                "run",
                "--with",
                "hologres-mcp-server",
                "hologres-mcp-server"
            ],
            "env": {
                "HOLOGRES_HOST": "host",
                "HOLOGRES_PORT": "port",
                "HOLOGRES_USER": "access_id",
                "HOLOGRES_PASSWORD": "access_key",
                "HOLOGRES_DATABASE": "database"
            }
        }
    }
}

Use uvx mode

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "hologres-mcp-server": {
            "command": "uvx",
            "args": [
                "hologres-mcp-server"
            ],
            "env": {
