Quickstart

Follow these steps to install and run the Dolibarr MCP server. The process mirrors the streamlined developer experience of the prestashop-mcp project.

1. Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/latinogino/dolibarr-mcp.git
cd dolibarr-mcp

2. Create a virtual environment

Linux / macOS

python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

Windows (Visual Studio Developer PowerShell)

vsenv
py -3 -m venv .venv
.\.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

3. Install the package

pip install -e .

For development and testing utilities add the optional extras:

pip install -e '.[dev]'

On Windows escape the brackets inside PowerShell:

pip install -e .`[dev`]

4. Configure credentials

Create a .env file in the project root (see configuration.md) or export the variables within your MCP host application.

5. Run the server

python -m dolibarr_mcp.cli serve

The command starts the STDIO based MCP server that Claude Desktop and other clients can communicate with.
