|
||||||
|
- [ ] New tests use proper mocking and don't require API keys
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Live Integration Tests (Recommended)
|
||||||
|
- [ ] I have tested this with a real Gemini API key using `python tests/test_live_integration.py`

# 🐳 Docker User Guide: Using Gemini MCP Server
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This guide is for users who want to use the Gemini MCP Server with Claude Desktop **without cloning the repository**. You'll use the pre-built Docker image published to GitHub Container Registry.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 🎯 What You'll Get
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After following this guide, you'll have:
|
||||||
|
- ✅ Gemini MCP Server running with Claude Desktop
|
||||||
|
- ✅ Access to all Gemini tools: `chat`, `thinkdeep`, `codereview`, `debug`, `analyze`, `precommit`
|
||||||
|
- ✅ Automatic conversation threading between Claude and Gemini
|
||||||
|
- ✅ No need to manage Python dependencies or clone code
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 📋 Prerequisites
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Required
|
||||||
|
1. **Docker Desktop** - [Download here](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/)
|
||||||
|
2. **Claude Desktop** - [Download here](https://claude.ai/download)
|
||||||
|
3. **Gemini API Key** - [Get one here](https://makersuite.google.com/app/apikey)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Platform Support
|
||||||
|
- ✅ **macOS** (Intel and Apple Silicon)
|
||||||
|
- ✅ **Linux**
|
||||||
|
- ✅ **Windows** (requires WSL2 for Claude Desktop)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 🚀 Quick Setup (5 minutes)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Step 1: Start Redis (Required for AI Conversations)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Start Redis for conversation threading
|
||||||
|
docker run -d \
|
||||||
|
--name gemini-redis \
|
||||||
|
--restart unless-stopped \
|
||||||
|
-p 6379:6379 \
|
||||||
|
redis:latest
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This creates a persistent Redis container that will survive system restarts.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Step 2: Start Gemini MCP Server
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Create and start the MCP server
|
||||||
|
docker run -d \
|
||||||
|
--name gemini-mcp-server \
|
||||||
|
--restart unless-stopped \
|
||||||
|
--network host \
|
||||||
|
-e GEMINI_API_KEY="your-gemini-api-key-here" \
|
||||||
|
-e REDIS_URL="redis://localhost:6379/0" \
|
||||||
|
-v "$(pwd):/workspace" \
|
||||||
|
ghcr.io/beehiveinnovations/gemini-mcp-server:latest
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Replace `your-gemini-api-key-here` with your actual API key.**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Command explained:**
|
||||||
|
- `-d`: Run in background
|
||||||
|
- `--restart unless-stopped`: Auto-restart container
|
||||||
|
- `--network host`: Connect to your local Redis
|
||||||
|
- `-e`: Set environment variables
|
||||||
|
- `-v "$(pwd):/workspace"`: Mount current directory for file access
|
||||||
|
- `ghcr.io/beehiveinnovations/gemini-mcp-server:latest`: The published image
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Step 3: Configure Claude Desktop
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Find your Claude Desktop config file:
|
||||||
|
- **macOS**: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
|
||||||
|
- **Windows (WSL)**: `/mnt/c/Users/USERNAME/AppData/Roaming/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Add this configuration:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```json
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
"mcpServers": {
|
||||||
|
"gemini": {
|
||||||
|
"command": "docker",
|
||||||
|
"args": [
|
||||||
|
"exec",
|
||||||
|
"-i",
|
||||||
|
"gemini-mcp-server",
|
||||||
|
"python",
|
||||||
|
"server.py"
|
||||||
|
]
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Step 4: Restart Claude Desktop
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Completely quit and restart Claude Desktop for changes to take effect.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Step 5: Test It Works
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Open Claude Desktop and try:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
"Use gemini to chat about Python best practices"
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You should see Gemini respond through Claude!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 🛠️ Available Tools
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Once set up, you can use any of these tools naturally in Claude:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Tool | Example Usage |
|
||||||
|
|------|---------------|
|
||||||
|
| **`chat`** | "Use gemini to brainstorm API design ideas" |
|
||||||
|
| **`thinkdeep`** | "Use gemini to think deeper about this architecture" |
|
||||||
|
| **`codereview`** | "Use gemini to review my Python code for security issues" |
|
||||||
|
| **`debug`** | "Use gemini to debug this error: [paste stack trace]" |
|
||||||
|
| **`analyze`** | "Use gemini to analyze my project structure" |
|
||||||
|
| **`precommit`** | "Use gemini to validate my git changes before commit" |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 📁 File Access
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Docker setup automatically mounts your current directory as `/workspace`. This means:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- ✅ Gemini can read files in your current directory and subdirectories
|
||||||
|
- ✅ You can analyze entire projects: "Use gemini to analyze my src/ directory"
|
||||||
|
- ✅ Works with relative paths: "Use gemini to review ./main.py"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 🔧 Management Commands
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Check Status
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# See if containers are running
|
||||||
|
docker ps
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Should show both 'gemini-redis' and 'gemini-mcp-server'
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### View Logs
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Check MCP server logs
|
||||||
|
docker logs gemini-mcp-server
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Follow logs in real-time
|
||||||
|
docker logs -f gemini-mcp-server
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Update to Latest Version
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Stop current container
|
||||||
|
docker stop gemini-mcp-server
|
||||||
|
docker rm gemini-mcp-server
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Pull latest image and restart (repeat Step 2)
|
||||||
|
docker pull ghcr.io/beehiveinnovations/gemini-mcp-server:latest
|
||||||
|
# Then run the docker run command from Step 2
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Stop Everything
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Stop containers (keeps Redis data)
|
||||||
|
docker stop gemini-mcp-server gemini-redis
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Or remove everything completely
|
||||||
|
docker stop gemini-mcp-server gemini-redis
|
||||||
|
docker rm gemini-mcp-server gemini-redis
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 🔒 Security Notes
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **API Key**: Your Gemini API key is stored in the Docker container environment. Use a dedicated key for this purpose.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. **File Access**: The container can read files in your mounted directory. Don't mount sensitive directories unnecessarily.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. **Network**: The container uses host networking to connect to Redis. This is safe for local development.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## 🚨 Troubleshooting
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### "Connection failed" in Claude Desktop
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Check if containers are running
|
||||||
|
docker ps
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Restart MCP server if needed
|
||||||
|
docker restart gemini-mcp-server
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Check logs for errors
|
||||||
|
docker logs gemini-mcp-server
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### "GEMINI_API_KEY environment variable is required"
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Stop and recreate container with correct API key
|
||||||
|
docker stop gemini-mcp-server
|
||||||
|
docker rm gemini-mcp-server
|
||||||
|
# Then run Step 2 again with the correct API key
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### "Redis connection failed"
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Check if Redis is running
|
||||||
|
docker ps | grep redis
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Start Redis if stopped
|
||||||
|
docker start gemini-redis
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Or recreate Redis
|
||||||
|
docker rm -f gemini-redis
|
||||||
|
# Then run Step 1 again
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Tools not responding / hanging
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Check for resource constraints
|
||||||
|
docker stats
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Restart everything
|
||||||
|
docker restart gemini-redis gemini-mcp-server
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Windows WSL2 Issues
|
||||||
|
- Ensure Docker Desktop is set to use WSL2 backend
|
||||||
|
- Run commands from within WSL2, not Windows Command Prompt
|
||||||
|
- Use WSL2 paths for file mounting
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

## 💡 Pro Tips
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **Conversation Threading**: Gemini remembers context across multiple interactions - you can have extended conversations!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. **File Analysis**: Point Gemini at entire directories: "Use gemini to analyze my entire project for architectural improvements"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. **Collaborative Workflows**: Combine tools: "Use gemini to analyze this code, then review it for security issues"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. **Thinking Modes**: Control depth vs cost: "Use gemini with minimal thinking to quickly explain this function"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. **Web Search**: Enable web search for current info: "Use gemini to debug this React error with web search enabled"
