Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
DatabaseCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)uvxArguments-
Argument 1
database-mcp
Environment-
DB_TYPE
pg -
DB_CONFIG
{"host":"localhost","port":5432,"user":"user","password":"pw","dbname":"dbname"}
Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
-
Argument 1
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
export DB_TYPE="pg" # or mysql, postgresql, etc.
export DB_CONFIG='{"host":"localhost","port":5432,"user":"username","password":"password","dbname":"database_name"}'
uv run src/database_mcp/mcp_server.py
export DB_CONFIGS='[{"id":"pg_main","db_type":"pg","configuration":{"host":"localhost","port":5432,"user":"username","password":"password","dbname":"database_name"},"description":"PostgreSQL Database"},{"id":"mysql_users","db_type":"mysql","configuration":{"host":"localhost","port":3306,"user":"root","password":"pass","database":"mysql"},"description":"MySQL Database"}]'
uv run src/database_mcp/mcp_server.py
If you don't specify an ID, the system will generate one automatically based on the database type and description:
```bash
export DB_CONFIGS='[{"db_type":"pg","configuration":{"host":"localhost","port":5432,"user":"username","password":"password","dbname":"database_name"},"description":"PostgreSQL Database"},{"db_type":"mysql","configuration":{"host":"localhost","port":3306,"user":"root","password":"pass","database":"mysql"},"description":"MySQL Database"}]'
