[](https://pypi.org/project/mcp-server-opendal/)
[](https://pypi.org/project/mcp-server-opendal/)

## Features
- Seamless access to multiple storage services including S3, Azure Blob Storage, Google Cloud Storage, and more
- List files and directories from storage services
- Read file contents with automatic text/binary detection
- Environment variable based configuration
## Installation
```shell
pip install mcp-server-opendal
```
## Usage with Claude Desktop
Add the following to `claude_desktop_config.json`:
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "opendal": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-server-opendal"
      ],
      "env": {
        "YOUR_ENV_VAR": "YOUR_ENV_VALUE"
      }
    }
  }
}
```
It requires `uv` to be installed on your machine. Check the [official documentation](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/) for installation guides.
## Environment variables
Configure storage services by setting environment variables. Each service requires a prefix and specific configuration options.
For example, to configure an S3 service with alias "mys3":
```
OPENDAL_MYS3_TYPE=s3
OPENDAL_MYS3_BUCKET=mybucket
OPENDAL_MYS3_REGION=us-east-1
OPENDAL_MYS3_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:9000
OPENDAL_MYS3_ACCESS_KEY_ID=myaccesskey
OPENDAL_MYS3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=mysecretkey
```
Then you can use tool like `read` and `list` with `mys3://path/to/file`.
`mcp-server-opendal` will also load from `.env`.
## Development
```shell
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector \
  uv run mcp-server-opendal
```
