Great to see what you all are doing.
Are there any plans to move timescale to be an extension as opposed to a fork? We've found ourselves at Citus that maintaining an extension lets us more easily stay up to date with current releases. Would love to see the same applied to timescale.
Edit: Looks like it is already one, just was unclear in the docs on the setup steps to me. Well done all.
- noir-york 9y agoIt looks like it is indeed an extension: http://docs.timescale.com/getting-started/installation?OS=linux&method=yum%2Fdnf http://docs.timescale.com/getting-started/installation?OS=li...
- mfreed 9y agoHi Craig, Timescale person here. noir-york is correct. TimescaleDB was always an extension, never a fork. So all installations are just a `CREATE EXTENSION` and upgrades between versions just via `ALTER EXTENSION` commands. But you're absolutely right -- way better than doing a fork! (Say hello to Ozgun for us.)
