Tools

upload_file

Upload a file to the configured R2 bucket.

Parameters:
- filePath (required): Local file path to upload
- key (optional): Object key/name in the bucket (defaults to filename)
- contentType (optional): MIME type of the file (auto-detected if not provided)

Usage Example

Once environment variables are configured, you can upload files directly:

{
  "filePath": "/path/to/your/file.jpg",
  "key": "uploads/my-image.jpg"
}

Supported File Types

The server automatically detects MIME types for common file extensions:

- Images: .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .gif, .webp
- Documents: .pdf, .txt, .json, .html, .css
- Scripts: .js
- Videos: .mp4, .mov, .avi
- Audio: .mp3, .wav

For other file types, it defaults to application/octet-stream or you can specify a custom contentType.

MCP Configuration

Add this to your mcp.json configuration file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "r2-upload": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["./apps/r2-upload/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "R2_ACCOUNT_ID": "your-cloudflare-account-id",
        "R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID": "your-r2-access-key-id", 
        "R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY": "your-r2-secret-access-key",
        "R2_BUCKET_NAME": "your-bucket-name",
        "R2_ENDPOINT": "https://your-account-id.r2.cloudflarestorage.com",
        "R2_CUSTOM_DOMAIN": "files.yourdomain.com"
      }
    }
  }
}

Environment Variables

Configure the server by setting these environment variables in your MCP configuration. If all required environment variables are set, the server will be ready to upload files immediately.

Custom Domain Setup

If you have a custom domain configured for your R2 bucket (e.g., files.yourdomain.com), set the R2_CUSTOM_DOMAIN environment variable. The server will return public URLs using your custom domain instead of the default R2 development domain.

Running the Server
