About Firebase MCP Server

What is Firebase MCP Server: Zero-Downtime Failover & Real-Time Sync?

Firebase MCP Server acts as a unified gateway to Firebase services like Authentication, Firestore, and Storage. Its core strength lies in maintaining zero-downtime failover through redundant architecture and ensuring real-time synchronization across distributed environments. Think of it as the Swiss Army Knife for developers needing enterprise-grade reliability without sacrificing agility.

How to use Firebase MCP Server: Zero-Downtime Failover & Real-Time Sync?

  1. Initialize your setup: Clone the repo from GitHub and run `npm install` followed by `npm run build`.
  2. Secure configuration: Generate a Firebase service account key via the Firebase Console and place it in your project directory.
  3. Deploy with safeguards: Configure `mcp_settings.json` with environment variables pointing to your service account. The `node` command in args ensures automatic failover triggers when primary instances drop.

Overview

This is a Firebase MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides a unified interface to interact with various Firebase services including Authentication, Firestore, and Storage.

Setup

  1. Clone and build the project:

    git clone https://github.com/gemini-dk/mcp-server-firebase

cd mcp-server-firebase
npm install
npm run build
  1. Get Firebase service account key:
* Go to Firebase Console > Project Settings > Service accounts
* Click "Generate new private key"
* Save the JSON file to your project directory
  1. Configure mcp_settings.json:

    {
    "firebase-mcp": {
    "command": "node",
    "args": [
    "/path/to/mcp-server-firebase/dist/index.js"
    ],
    "env": {
    "SERVICE_ACCOUNT_KEY_PATH": "/path/to/serviceAccountKey.json"
    }
    }

}

Replace /path/to/mcp-server-firebase with the actual path where you cloned the repository. Replace /path/to/serviceAccountKey.json with the path to your service account key file.
