Prerequisites

• .NET 9.0
  • Check that the project file (LitedbMcpServer.csproj) is compatible with your environment by running:

  dotnet run --project /path/to/LitedbMcpServer/LitedbMcpServer.csproj
  

Installation

Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/vishwanath-uppala/litedb-mcp-server.git
cd litedb-mcp-server

Configuration

For Amazon Q CLI users: Add the following to mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "litedb-mcp": {
      "command": "dotnet",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--project",
        "/full/path/to/LitedbMcpServer/LitedbMcpServer.csproj",
        "--no-build",
        "--",
        "--database-path",
        "/full/path/to/database/file.db"
      ]
    }
  }
}

The --database-path argument is required and must point to a valid file path where the LiteDB database will be stored.
