Linux Repository

Pigsty has a repository that provides additional PostgreSQL extension packages on mainstream Linux Distros. It is designed to work together with the official PostgreSQL Global Development Group (PGDG) repo. Together, they can provide 507 PostgreSQL Extensions out-of-the-box.

Compatibility Overview

Get Started

You can enable the pigsty infra & pgsql repo with the pig CLI tool:

• Default
• Mirror

curl https://repo.pigsty.io/pig | bash      # download and install the pig CLI tool
pig repo add all -u                         # add linux, pgdg, pigsty repo and update cache

curl https://repo.pigsty.cc/pig | bash      # download from mirror site
pig repo add -u                             # add linux, pgdg, pigsty repo and update cache

Manual Install

You can also add these repos to your system manually with the default apt, dnf, yum approach.

• APT
• YUM

# Add Pigsty's GPG public key to your system keychain to verify package signatures
curl -fsSL https://repo.pigsty.io/key | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/pigsty.gpg

# Get Debian distribution codename (distro_codename=jammy, focal, bullseye, bookworm), and write the corresponding upstream repository address to the APT List file
distro_codename=$(lsb_release -cs)
sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pigsty-io.list > /dev/null <<EOF

# Refresh APT repository cache

# Add Pigsty's GPG public key to your system keychain to verify package signatures
curl -fsSL https://repo.pigsty.io/key | sudo tee /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-pigsty >/dev/null

Repository Components

Pigsty has two major repos: INFRA and PGSQL, providing DEB / RPM packages for x86_64 and aarch64 architecture.

The INFRA repo contains packages that are generic to any PostgreSQL version and Linux major version, including Prometheus & Grafana stack, admin tools for Postgres, and many utilities written in Go.

The PGSQL repo contains packages that are ad hoc to specific PostgreSQL Major Versions (often ad hoc to a specific Linux distro major version, too). Including extensions and some kernel forks.
