Hi packagers,

What does it take to have an extension / project to be packaged and
deployed across official repos?

For example, if we want to have this project easily installable without
manual compiling fuss:
https://github.com/niquola/jsonknife

Or, if we want to build our custom package locally, any recipe to build an
RPM from this?

So many thanks
Your project is so useful, loved !

Bruno

Hi,

Ask them to create a tarball first. They don't have any releases

Yah having a tagged release is a good first step.  Packagers don’t like distributing extensions without a tagged release as it’s too hard to troubleshoot if things go wrong.

It also gives a sense of commitment if the project is willing to do releases.  

Last thing a packager wants is for people to rely on functionality in an extension and then the project stops working on newer releases of PostgreSQL and doesn’t want to put in the effort to make it work on newer releases.

 

Thanks,

Regina
