Hi All, Incubating Apache Age is starting to get to the point where people (internally and in the community) want to update their existing version of AGE without having to drop and recreate the extension. In order to use the newer features.
https://github.com/apache/incubator-age/issues/110 Using Docker can handle some of this concern, but not everyone uses Docker. The versioning system that Postgres uses for extensions is to partly track what has been added/modified/deleted in the age--*.sql between versions. To do this we need to have some .sql scripts that can be used by people when changing from one version of age to another. https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/extend-extensions.html#id-1.8.3.19.15 https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/sql-alterextension.html We have not built these scripts, but as the team and the community is growing right now: it would be good to start building these upgrade scripts. For some examples, go to the contrib/ folder in the Postgres code. Many of the extensions contain these scripts. We create value for our clients by connecting the world's data.
