><P
> If you are thinking about distributing your
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
> extension modules, setting up a
portable build system for them can be fairly difficult. Therefore
the <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
> installation provides a build
infrastructure for extensions, called <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>PGXS</ACRONYM
>, so
that simple extension modules can be built simply against an
already installed server. <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>PGXS</ACRONYM
> is mainly intended
for extensions that include C code, although it can be used for
pure-SQL extensions too. Note that <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>PGXS</ACRONYM
> is not
intended to be a universal build system framework that can be used
to build any software interfacing to <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
>;
it simply automates common build rules for simple server extension
modules. For more complicated packages, you might need to write your
own build system.
</P
><P
> To use the <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>PGXS</ACRONYM
> infrastructure for your extension,
you must write a simple makefile.
In the makefile, you need to set some variables
and finally include the global <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>PGXS</ACRONYM
> makefile.
Here is an example that builds an extension module named
<TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>isbn_issn</TT
>, consisting of a shared library containing
some C code, an extension control file, a SQL script, and a documentation
text file:
</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>MODULES = isbn_issn
EXTENSION = isbn_issn
DATA = isbn_issn--1.0.sql
DOCS = README.isbn_issn
PG_CONFIG = pg_config
PGXS := $(shell $(PG_CONFIG) --pgxs)
include $(PGXS)</PRE
><P>
The last three lines should always be the same. Earlier in the
file, you assign variables or add custom
<SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>make</SPAN
> rules.
