Best way to package new Postgres extensions?

Hey,

I’m very interested in using 2 new PostgreSQL extensions pg_duckdb from Hydra and pg_search from ParadeDB in my own server.

What is the de-facto way to package and install new extensions for Postgres?

I saw that some popular extensions like timescaledb are already included in the nixpkgs 24.11.

Should I create a Pull Request to add them here?

Are there better ways to get started?

Hello !

Does this help? NixOS Manual

Of course, if you want to submit your extension against nixpkgs, feel free to do it and we’ll review your PR.
