# MCP Vertica
[](https://smithery.ai/server/@nolleh/mcp-vertica)
A Vertica MCP(model-context-protocol) Server
> [!IMPORTANT]
> If you have troubles to connect this mcp server, try to run `uv cache clean`, and then retry.
### Example: MCP Server Setting
Create or edit the file your mcp client config file with the following content:
#### UVX
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"vertica": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["mcp-vertica"],
"env": {
"VERTICA_HOST": "localhost",
"VERTICA_PORT": 5433,
"VERTICA_DATABASE": "VMart",
"VERTICA_USER": "dbadmin",
"VERTICA_PASSWORD": "test_password",
"VERTICA_CONNECTION_LIMIT": 10,
"VERTICA_SSL": false,
"VERTICA_SSL_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED": true
}
}
}
}
```
Or with args
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"vertica": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"mcp-vertica",
"--host=localhost",
"--db-port=5433",
"--database=VMart",
"--user=dbadmin",
"--password=test_password",
"--connection-limit=10"
]
}
}
}
```
#### Docker
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"vertica": {
"command": "docker",
"args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "nolleh/mcp-vertica"],
"env": {
"VERTICA_HOST": "localhost",
"VERTICA_PORT": 5433,
"VERTICA_DATABASE": "VMart",
"VERTICA_USER": "dbadmin",
"VERTICA_PASSWORD": "test_password",
"VERTICA_CONNECTION_LIMIT": 10,
"VERTICA_SSL": false,
"VERTICA_SSL_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED": true
}
}
}
}
```
> [!Note]
>
> - For boolean flags like `--ssl` or `--ssl-reject-unauthorized`, simply add the flag (e.g., `"--ssl"`) to enable it, or omit it to disable.
> - For an empty password, use an empty string as shown above.

## Installation
### Installing via Smithery
To install Vertica Database Connector for Claude Desktop automatically via [Smithery](https://smithery.ai/server/@nolleh/mcp-vertica):
```bash
npx -y @smithery/cli install @nolleh/mcp-vertica --client claude
```
### Installing Manually
Open your favorite mcp client's config file, then configure with `uvx mcp-vertica`
[Example: Mcp Server Setting](#example%3A-mcp-server-setting)
## Development
#### Appendix: For Testing, VerticaDB Docker Compose Example
```yaml
version: "3.8"
services:
vertica:
# image: vertica/vertica-ce:11.1.0-0
image: vertica/vertica-ce:latest
platform: linux/amd64
container_name: vertica-ce
environment:
VERTICA_MEMDEBUG: 2
ports:
- "5433:5433"
- "5444:5444"
volumes:
- vertica_data:/home/dbadmin/VMart
healthcheck:
test:
[
"CMD",
"/opt/vertica/bin/vsql",
"-h",
"localhost",
"-d",
"VMart",
"-U",
"dbadmin",
"-c",
"SELECT 1",
]
interval: 10s
timeout: 5s
retries: 5
start_period: 30s
restart: unless-stopped
volumes:
vertica_data:
driver: local
```
Then run server by following instruction [Example: Mcp Server Setting](#example%3A-mcp-server-setting),
Then see everything works as fine
