MCP Server for Apache Gravitino

MCP server providing Gravitino APIs - A FastMCP integration for Apache Gravitino services.

Features

Seamless integration with FastMCP for Gravitino APIs
Simplified interface for metadata interaction
Supports metadata operations for catalogs, schemas, tables, models, users, tags, and user-role management

Tool List

mcp-server-gravitino does not expose all Gravitino APIs, but provides a selected set of optimized tools:

Table Tools

get_list_of_catalogs: Retrieve a list of catalogs
get_list_of_schemas: Retrieve a list of schemas
get_list_of_tables: Retrieve a paginated list of tables
get_table_by_fqn: Fetch detailed information for a specific table
get_table_columns_by_fqn: Retrieve column information for a table

Tag Tools

get_list_of_tags: Retrieve all tags
associate_tag_to_entity: Attach a tag to a table or column
list_objects_by_tag: List objects associated with a specific tag

User Role Tools

get_list_of_roles: Retrieve all roles
get_list_of_users: Retrieve all users
grant_role_to_user: Assign a role to a user
revoke_role_from_user: Revoke a user's role

Model Tools

get_list_of_models: Retrieve a list of models
get_list_of_model_versions_by_fqn: Get versions of a model by fully qualified name

Each tool is designed to return concise and relevant metadata to stay within LLM token limits while maintaining semantic integrity.

Copy & paste — that's it

uv venv

Before it works, you'll need: GRAVITINO_URIGRAVITINO_USERNAMEGRAVITINO_PASSWORDGRAVITINO_METALAKE

Installation

This project uses uv as the dependency and virtual environment management tool. Please ensure uv is installed on your system.

Clone the repository:

git clone git@github.com:datastrato/mcp-server-gravitino.git

Navigate into the project directory:
```
cd mcp-server-gravitino
```
Create a virtual environment:
```
uv venv
```
Activate the virtual environment:
```
source .venv/bin/activate
```
Install dependencies:
```
uv install
```

Configuration

Common Configuration

Regardless of the Authorization, the following environment variables need to be set:

GRAVITINO_METALAKE=<YOUR_METALAKE> # default: "metalake_demo"
GRAVITINO_URI=<YOUR_GRAVITINO_URI>

GRAVITINO_URI: The base URL of your Gravitino server.
GRAVITINO_METALAKE: The name of the metakube to use.

Authorization

mcp-server-gravitino supports both token-based and basic authentication methods. These mechanisms allow secure access to MCP tools and prompts and are suitable for integration with external systems.

Token Authentication

Set the following environment variables:

GRAVITINO_JWT_TOKEN=<YOUR_GRAVITINO_JWT_TOKEN>

GRAVITINO_JWT_TOKEN: The JWT token for authentication.

Basic Authentication

Alternatively, you can use basic authentication:

GRAVITINO_USERNAME=<YOUR_GRAVITINO_USERNAME>
GRAVITINO_PASSWORD=<YOUR_GRAVITINO_PASSWORD>

GRAVITINO_USERNAME: The username for Gravitino authentication.
GRAVITINO_PASSWORD: The corresponding password.

Tool Activation

Tool activation is currently based on method names (e.g., get_list_of_table). You can specify which tools to activate by setting the optional environment variable GRAVITINO_ACTIVE_TOOLS. The default value is *, which activates all tools. If just want to activate get_list_of_roles tool, you can set the environment variable as follows:

GRAVITINO_ACTIVE_TOOLS=get_list_of_roles

Usage

To launch the Gravitino MCP Server, run the following command:

uv \
--directory /path/to/mcp-gravitino \
run \
--with fastmcp \
--with httpx \
--with mcp-server-gravitino \
python -m mcp_server_gravitino.server

The meaning of each argument is as follows:

Argument	Description
`uv`	Launches the UV CLI tool
`--directory /path/to/mcp-gravitino`	Specifies the working project directory with `pyproject.toml`
`run`	Indicates that a command will be executed in the managed environment
`--with fastmcp`	Adds `fastmcp` to the runtime environment without altering project deps
`--with httpx`	Adds `httpx` dependency for async HTTP functionality
`--with mcp-server-gravitino`	Adds the local module as a runtime dependency
`python -m mcp_server_gravitino.server`	Starts the MCP server using the package's entry module
