pig v1.8.1

Thu, 03 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Pig v1.8.1 is a safety, correctness, and maintenance release on top of v1.8.0. It hardens command initialization, privileged log access, repository and build workflows, release integrity, and structured-output redaction. It also refreshes the embedded extension catalog and moves the build toolchain to Go 1.27.1 and cargo-pgrx 0.19.2. The embedded Pigsty version remains 4.5.0.

CLI safety and correctness

Read-only and configuration-independent commands no longer require a writable HOME or create ~/.pig as a side effect. Leaf commands preserve their declared initialization policy.
pig pg log, pig pt log, and pig pb log preserve arguments through sudo execution as the database OS user and reject unsafe log-file links.
pig do validates Pigsty names and rejects reserved Ansible cluster targets before execution.
Native PostgreSQL role detection is bound to the selected instance rather than an unrelated local default.
Structured results redact credentials, license material, and build-proxy identifiers while retaining truthful command failure.

Repository and build hardening

Repository add and remove operations now fail when any requested operation fails, deduplicate module selections, and preserve replacement boundaries.
Offline cache bundles reject unsafe paths, links, special files, and incomplete inputs; archive extraction remains rooted and fail-closed. The obsolete exported cache wrapper was removed after production moved to the structured result path.
Build source and artifact validation rejects incomplete or unsafe inputs. pig build proxy uses the package-provided service contract, treats its operands as optional, and keeps secret identifiers out of structured output.
Self-update verifies release checksums, and release tooling refuses dirty or mismatched-tag publication and immutable artifact replacement.

Toolchain and catalog

Go is updated to 1.27.1; Logrus to 1.10.2; GoReleaser to 2.18.0; and golangci-lint to 2.13.2.
pig build pgrx now installs cargo-pgrx 0.19.2 by default. Use -v when an extension requires an older pgrx line recorded in its catalog metadata.
The embedded catalog is refreshed from the maintained pgext view. It adds acdat 0.1.0, marks the superseded pgcontext_pgvector entry removed, and updates package versions, repository ownership, PostgreSQL coverage, and availability matrices.

Verification

The release is built from source commit e3d1eb4. The exact commit passed the full CI workflow, including randomized tests, command race regressions, vet, static analysis, dead-code detection, vulnerability scanning, and a GoReleaser snapshot. The tag then passed the Release workflow, which produced the published RPM, DEB, macOS, and Linux artifacts.

pig v1.8.0

Fri, 14 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Pig v1.8.0 makes Pigsty controller setup native. The two core setup commands, pig sty boot and pig sty conf, are now failure-aware Go workflows instead of wrappers around the legacy bootstrap and configure shell scripts. The release keeps the public catalog total at 575 packaged PostgreSQL extensions and embeds Pigsty 4.5.0.

Native `pig sty boot`

pig sty boot is now one native, failure-aware controller bootstrap transaction. It does not execute <PIGSTY_HOME>/bootstrap, and its HTTP download and archive extraction paths do not depend on curl, wget, tar, or gzip.

pig v1.7.0

Wed, 12 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Pig v1.7.0 is a repository compatibility and catalog release on top of v1.6.2. It makes China-mirror selection explicit, preserves native DNF module filtering by default, restores a streamlined EL7 repository catalog, and grows the bundled extension snapshot from 572 to 575. The embedded Pigsty version remains 4.5.0.

Highlights

-m|--mirror now selects the bundled china repository definitions directly. PGDG, Rocky Linux, Debian, Ubuntu, Docker, and other regional routes use the maintained mirror list instead of the former runtime PGDG proxy rewrite.
EL repository definitions no longer receive module_hotfixes=1 globally. Pigsty and PGDG repositories that intentionally override module streams opt in explicitly; BaseOS, AppStream, EPEL, and other repositories retain native DNF module filtering.
EL7 keeps a deliberately limited compatibility catalog: archived CentOS 7 Base/Updates/Extras/SCLo and EPEL definitions for x86_64, plus shared Pigsty and supported PGDG entries. The DNF-only module_hotfixes key is stripped when rendering EL7 YUM configuration.
Repository setup now reports unsupported platforms when the catalog has no matching definitions, instead of continuing with an empty repository set.
Release metadata is bumped to 1.7.0; the embedded Pigsty version remains 4.5.0.

Extension Catalog

Packaged extensions: 572 -> 575, with no removals.
3 new extensions: pg_local_cache 1.2.0, pg_statviz 0.1.0, and pg_policy 0.1.0.
Version refreshes include biscuit 3.0.0, pg_clickhouse 0.10.0, pg_search 0.25.2, pg_turbovec packages 1.29.0, pg_uuid_v8 1.1.0, and the Debian q3c 2.0.5 package.
Package metadata and availability matrices are refreshed. Run pig ext reload when you need a catalog newer than this release snapshot.

Compatibility Notes

No commands or global flags are removed in this release.
-m|--mirror is now an explicit China-region selection rather than a PGDG proxy rewrite. Use --region=default|china|europe when you need a specific route.
Custom EL repository definitions that require module-stream overrides must now set meta.module_hotfixes: 1 explicitly. This setting is intentionally omitted for ordinary OS repositories and removed on EL7.
EL7 is end-of-life and only has limited compatibility coverage; prefer EL8 or newer for current PostgreSQL and extension packages.

v1.7.0 · 2026-08-12

pig v1.6.2

Tue, 11 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Pig v1.6.2 is a feature and catalog release on top of v1.6.1. It grows the packaged extension catalog from 562 to 572, adds native Grafana dashboard schema v2 support, and improves local repository generation. The embedded Pigsty version remains locked at 4.5.0.

Highlights

pig sty grafana now accepts both legacy dashboard JSON and native dashboard.grafana.app/v2 Dashboard resources. Loading a v2 dashboard uses Grafana’s resource API so tabs and section variables survive the round trip; dumping preserves an existing v2 destination while new dumps keep the legacy format by default.
pig repo create now prefers sow create --pigsty --timeout 10m -- <dir> when SOW is available, requires the resulting repo_complete marker to exist as a regular file, and falls back to createrepo_c / dpkg-scanpackages on Linux.
Local repository creation now works on macOS through SOW, defaults to the current directory there, and does not require sudo. The Linux default remains /www/pigsty.
Release metadata is bumped to 1.6.2; the embedded Pigsty version stays at 4.5.0.

Extension Catalog

Packaged extensions: 562 -> 572, with no removals.
10 new extensions: pg_turbovec, pg_disorder, pg_mentat, plruby, jsonb_plruby, hstore_plruby, ltree_plruby, pg_describe, cat_tools, and pg_vault_tde.
12 version refreshes: timescaledb 2.29.1, q3c 2.0.5, pgmnemo 0.16.1, pg_search 0.25.1, citus 14.2.0, citus_columnar 14.2.0, provsql 1.12.0, plpgsql_check 2.10.4, pg_rational 0.0.3, pgbson 2.1.0, pg_readme 0.7.1, and pg_readme_test_extension 0.7.1.
Package metadata and availability matrices are refreshed. Run pig ext reload to replace the embedded release snapshot with the latest online catalog.

Compatibility Notes

No commands or global flags are removed in this release.
When SOW is installed, pig repo create now prefers it over the legacy Linux generators and checks that the completion marker exists before reporting success.
The catalog count is not a promise that every package is available on every PostgreSQL / OS / architecture combination; use pig ext avail NAME on the target host.
Package-manager and install-script upgrades use the newest version published by the configured Pigsty repository, which may lag GitHub. Use the GitHub assets when you need this exact release.

v1.6.2 · 2026-08-11

pig v1.6.1

Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000

pig v1.6.1 is a maintenance release on top of v1.6.0. It carries no new commands and no flag changes — the point of the release is the catalog that ships inside the binary.

What changed

Extension catalog refreshed. The embedded extension.csv is regenerated from the Pigsty package repositories, so pig ext list and pig install resolve against current package versions without a pig ext reload round trip.
Pigsty version aligned to 4.5.0. The embedded Pigsty version that pig sty and pig status report now points at Pigsty 4.5.0.
Version strings bumped across the build metadata and pig update.

The catalog embedded in the v1.6.1 release covers 562 packaged extensions across PostgreSQL 14–18 on EL 8/9/10, Debian 12/13, and Ubuntu 22/24/26, for both x86_64 and aarch64. Running pig ext reload can replace that release snapshot with a newer online catalog.

From Human-Friendly to Agent-Native: PIG's CLI Contract

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Decision date: 2026-02-12
Status: Implemented in pig v1.1.0 and refined by later command-layer work.
Current reference: pig command overview
Scope: PIG-owned commands and their machine-consumption contract; opaque passthrough commands keep their native interface.

Decision

PIG should be usable by a person at a terminal and by an automation agent without making either consumer parse the other’s presentation. Human-facing text remains concise and operational. Commands that own a stable result expose explicit JSON or YAML results, status codes, and plans. Commands that merely forward an external tool preserve that tool’s native stream, prompts, and exit status instead of wrapping them in a misleading envelope.

Compile, Validate, Then Commit: The Native sty conf Pipeline

Wed, 18 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Decision date: 2026-02-18; the production contract was finalized on 2026-08-14.
Status: Implemented and released in pig v1.8.0.
Current reference: pig sty conf
Scope: Generating one validated static Inventory from a trusted Pigsty template; not arbitrary YAML transformation.

Decision

pig sty conf should behave like a small compiler: resolve one safe template, parse it, apply a bounded set of structural mutations, validate the complete candidate, and atomically commit the output only after every required stage succeeds.

pig v1.6.0

Tue, 28 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Pig v1.6.0 is a major release: pig pt becomes a transparent patronictl launcher, the new root-level pig inventory command group brings lossless editing and validation of pigsty.yml (with an experimental PostgreSQL CMDB bridge), pig sty grafana adds native Grafana dashboard management, and the packaged extension catalog grows to 562.

Highlights

pig pt is rewritten as a native patronictl passthrough: all cluster commands (list, restart, switchover, failover, edit-config, …) forward directly with native flags, prompts, output, and exit codes, so new patronictl features work without waiting for a pig release. Local helpers status, log, set, and service/svc remain, with new -c/--config-file, -d/--dcs-url, -k/--insecure options and a pig pt -- … escape hatch.
New root-level pig inventory command group (alias inv): status / list / show / edit / validate / check / diff — a lossless YAML engine that preserves comments, formatting, key order, and anchors byte-for-byte; edit validates before writing and writes atomically, so invalid YAML can never reach disk.
New experimental pig inventory cmdb subcommands (check / init / load / dump / enable / disable) exchange the inventory with the Pigsty CMDB in PostgreSQL over a native driver, with bounded timeouts and digest-pinned confirmation for destructive operations.
New pig sty grafana (alias gf) manages Grafana dashboards natively over HTTP: info / list / boot / load / init / dump / clean / lang / style. The pig sty surface is simplified: sty edit / validate / check / cmdb / dashboard / release are removed in favor of pig inventory, pig sty grafana, and pig sty list / get.
Reliability hardening: repo / catalog / download writes are atomic (no more truncated files on interrupt); structured -o json|yaml keeps stdout as a pure result envelope with wrapped-tool output on stderr; finer exit codes (usage errors → 2, missing --yes confirmation → 7); Ansible list variables are JSON-encoded.
Repository refresh: MySQL repos upgraded to 8.4 LTS, new Percona XtraBackup (pxb84) and MySQL Tools repos, Kubernetes v1.36, LLVM apt coverage for Debian/Ubuntu 26, Percona TDE sourced directly from repo.percona.com, wiltondb repo removed.
Toolchain: Go 1.26.5, new native PostgreSQL driver (pgx v5), embedded Pigsty version 4.4.0.

Extension Catalog

Packaged extensions: 531 -> 562; the broader PGEXT.CLOUD directory contains 2,230 entries.
33 new extensions, including the pg_lake family (pg_lake, pg_lake_table, pg_lake_engine, pg_lake_iceberg, pg_lake_copy), pg_jieba, pg_cjk_parser, pg_fts, pgmonitor, pgmemento, pg_tiktoken_c, online_advisor, pgsqlmock, and plx.
2 removed: pg_analytics, spat; 58 version refreshes, including vector 0.8.5, timescaledb 2.28.3, pg_search 0.24.3, pg_tde 2.2.1, and powa 5.2.0.
Package aliases synced with Pigsty: kafka is renamed to kafka-stack; the Debian/Ubuntu postgresql alias now maps to postgresql-$v only (use pgsql / pgsql-full for the full dev set).

Compatibility Notes

⚠ pig pt failover <name>: the positional argument is now the cluster, not the promotion candidate — use pig pt failover CLUSTER --candidate MEMBER and review any failover automation before upgrading.
pig pt positionals are native cluster-first (restart CLUSTER [MEMBER]); forwarded commands return native patronictl exit codes, own their confirmation prompts (-y no longer gates them), and no longer support -o json (use native --format json). pig pt config is replaced by pig pt set K=V and native show-config / edit-config.
In structured output mode, wrapped-tool output moves to stderr and stdout carries only the JSON/YAML envelope — update scripts that parsed mixed output.
pig inventory edit tightens the inventory file mode to 0600 after a successful edit, since the file may contain credentials.

v1.6.0 · 2026-07-28

The 70% Tuner: Defining the Boundary of pig pg tune

Sat, 21 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Decision date: 2026-03-21
Status: Implemented on 2026-03-23 and released in pig v1.3.2.
Current reference: pig pg tune
Scope: A deterministic first-pass configuration for one local PostgreSQL instance, not a complete production design service.

Decision

pig pg tune should answer one bounded question: given a CPU count, memory size, disk size, and a workload profile, what are sensible core PostgreSQL parameters for this machine?

The command targets a “70% correct” starting point. It detects hardware when possible, accepts explicit overrides, calculates a small set of high-impact parameters, and can write them to postgresql.auto.conf. It does not claim to design replication, durability, security, logging, extensions, connection pooling, or workload-specific SQL behavior.

pig v1.5.1

Wed, 08 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Pig v1.5.1 updates PG kernel forks to the latest package names.

Highlights

Add mirror/proxy mode to repo, build, sty, update, and extension update workflows; pig build rust -m also configures Cargo mirror settings with rsproxy.cn.
Add explicit PostgreSQL 19 beta build switches: pig build repo --beta, pig build tool --beta, and pig build pgrx -b, while keeping PostgreSQL 18 and PG14-18 as the stable defaults.
Refresh kernel and fork package aliases for IvorySQL, PolarDB, OrioleDB, OpenHaloDB, Babelfish, and the pgEdge suite.
Improve the Cloudberry package build flow for cloudberry, cloudberry-backup, and cloudberry-pxf.
Refresh source/package metadata for Cloudberry, Babelfish, OrioleDB, pgEdge, PolarDB, polarstore, zlog, libpgfeutils, and libfq.
Improve repository generation for newer EL release strings, including PGDG on EL9.6+ / EL10+ and EPEL’s EL10 10z stream.

Why PIG Keeps the Cobra Command Layer Flat

Tue, 30 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Decision date: 2026-06-30
Status: Active repository architecture.
Current reference: pig command overview and the source repository
Scope: Go source ownership and command registration, not the public command taxonomy itself.

Decision

The cmd package stays flat. One top-level command belongs in one top-level Go file: pg.go, pb.go, pt.go, pe.go, sty.go, do.go, repo.go, and their peers. Even large command trees remain in that entry-point file unless there is an explicit decision to change the layout.

pig v1.5.0

Sat, 04 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Pig v1.5.0 is a PostgreSQL operations release for day-to-day DBA work. It adds local database clone/fork workflows, clarifies the boundaries between pg, pt, pb, and pitr, and tightens preview, confirmation, and structured-output behavior for high-risk operations.

Highlights

pig pg is now more focused on local PostgreSQL operations. pig pg clone creates quick database-level copies, while pig pg fork creates disposable physical instance forks for local validation, recovery drills, and isolated experiments.
Recovery flows are split more clearly: pig pitr is the orchestration entry point across Patroni, PostgreSQL, and pgBackRest; pig pb restore remains the low-level pgBackRest restore primitive. Restore commands now require an explicit target and provide more concrete plans and post-restore guidance.
Patroni operations are more predictable: high-risk actions such as pig pt restart, reinit, switchover, and failover use Pig-managed confirmation and plan output; pig pt config pg points operators to pig pt restart --pending when a restart is required.
Automation is safer: structured output no longer implies confirmation for destructive commands. High-risk execution requires explicit -y/--yes, while --plan and next_actions are more consistent for preview-then-execute workflows.
Logs and status output are more useful during incidents: pg, pb, and pt log commands now cover common latest / tail / show / grep workflows, and structured log snapshots use JSONL semantics.
Build and release defaults were refreshed: Pig is 1.5.0, embedded Pigsty is 4.4.0, and pig build pgrx defaults to cargo-pgrx 0.19.1.

Extension Catalog

Available extensions: 524 -> 531, with no removals.
New extensions: pg_ducklake, pgdisablelogerror, pg_stat_log, pg_stat_plans, passwordpolicy, db2fce, plpgsql_wrap.
Refreshed a batch of existing extension versions and package metadata, including timescaledb 2.28.2, postgis 3.6.4, vector 0.8.4, biscuit 2.4.1, citus 14.1.0, orioledb 1.8, documentdb 0.113, credcheck 5.0, and pgtt 4.5.
orioledb aliases no longer pin to PG17; they resolve against the requested PostgreSQL major. EL9 ARM64 Patroni aliases now point to noarch packages.

Compatibility Notes

Use -y/--yes for destructive operations in automation; structured output mode no longer substitutes for human confirmation.
pig pb restore and pig pitr require exactly one explicit recovery target; use --target-action=promote for auto-promote behavior.
Several ambiguous short options were cleaned up. For log commands, -o json means a JSONL snapshot and is not used for tail/follow streaming modes.

One Grammar for Dangerous Work: PIG's Operations CLI Safety Contract

Thu, 02 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Decision date: 2026-07-02
Status: Released for pg, pb, pt, and pitr by v1.5.0; the 2026-08-29 do and build proxy refinements were released in v1.8.1.
Current reference: pig pg, pig pb, pig pitr, pig do, and pig build
Scope: PIG-owned operational commands; transparent upstream commands retain upstream confirmation and exit behavior.

Decision

Operational convenience must not blur operational meaning. PIG distinguishes low-level primitives from multi-stage orchestrators, makes destructive intent explicit, reserves aliases carefully, and requires plans and structured results to describe the same action that text mode will execute.

Edit the Declaration, Preserve the Document: Lossless Pigsty Inventory

Sat, 18 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Decision date: 2026-07-18
Status: Implemented and released in pig v1.6.0.
Current reference: pig inventory
Scope: Static Pigsty Inventory inspection, scoped editing, validation, comparison, and safe writes.

Decision

PIG treats pigsty.yml as both a semantic declaration and a human-maintained source document. Semantic parsers determine what the Inventory means; the original bytes remain authoritative for how it is written. Scoped edits replace bounded source ranges and then reparse the complete candidate before an atomic write.

pig v1.4.2

Thu, 18 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Refresh the built-in extension catalog from 510 to 524 available extensions. This adds 14 extensions: pg_stl, pgmnemo, psql_bm25s, pg_orca, pg_sorted_heap, graph, pgrdf, fsm_core, jsonschema, pg_durable, pg_mockable, pg_uuid_v8, pg_stat_backtrace, and pg_projection.
Update package metadata for 48 existing extensions, including timescaledb 2.28.0, timescaledb_toolkit 1.23.0, pg_task 2.1.29, pg_search 0.24.0, pg_clickhouse 0.3.2, pg_graphql 1.6.1, documentdb 0.112, toastinfo 1.7, wrappers 0.6.1, and pgclone 4.3.2. No extensions were removed or demoted.
Add PostgreSQL 19 beta install/build/config support. PG19 is accepted as an explicit installable major, while PostgreSQL 18 remains the stable default for auto-detection, catalog display, and latest-version aliases.
Add pg19 package aliases and PG19 category alias resolution. PG19 category aliases borrow the PostgreSQL 18 visibility template and limit beta package expansion to PGDG-origin entries.
Teach pig sty conf -v 19 to enable the beta repository module when the template supports it, and emit clear warnings when a template is not tuned for PG19 beta or cannot enable the beta repo automatically.
Fix Patroni cluster operations by passing the resolved CLUSTER_NAME to patronictl restart, reinit, switchover, and failover; pig pt list also accepts an optional cluster name.
Bump the default pgrx version for pig build pgrx from 0.18.0 to 0.18.1.
Bump release metadata to v1.4.2, refresh Go module checksums, and add focused tests for PG19 aliases/config generation plus Patroni cluster-scope behavior.

Use the CMDB Pigsty Already Has

Sat, 18 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Decision date: 2026-07-18
Status: The greenfield revision store is superseded; the thin existing-CMDB adapter is implemented and remains experimental.
Current reference: pig inventory cmdb
Scope: Exchanging declarations with Pigsty’s existing CMDB, not designing another configuration database.

Decision

PIG must reuse the CMDB already provided by Pigsty. Its responsibility is a bounded adapter: validate a static Inventory, load declarations into the existing tables, dump the existing projection, check consistency, and switch Ansible between the static and dynamic sources safely.

Status: Implemented in v1.6.0; Grafana dashboard schema v2 support followed in v1.6.2.
Current reference: pig sty grafana
Scope: Pigsty-owned dashboard folders, dashboards, and UI preferences; not general Grafana provisioning.

Decision

PIG should manage the Grafana assets that ship with Pigsty through a bounded native HTTP client. It may inspect readiness, list managed assets, load or initialize dashboards, dump them, remove only owned dashboards, and adjust the supported language and style preferences.

PIG 2.0 Product Direction: A Proposal, Not a Release Contract

Thu, 13 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Decision date: 2026-08-13
Status: Proposal for owner review; it is not implemented and is not a PIG 2.0 release commitment.
Current reference: PIG documentation and the current v1.8.1 release
Scope: Candidate product boundaries and verification gates for a future PIG 2.0 / Pigsty 5.0 line.

Decision

The proposed direction makes PIG the stable onboarding front door from an empty controller to a validated, deployable Pigsty Inventory. PIG would own Catalog selection, resolution, plans, bounded execution orchestration, structured results, and redacted receipts. It would continue to delegate package transactions, configuration application, and infrastructure state to DNF/APT, Ansible, and future provider-specific tools.

Catalog v2 Proposal: Immutable Typed Snapshots Instead of Bigger CSV

Thu, 13 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Decision date: 2026-08-13
Status: Pre-implementation proposal; security mechanism, overlay scope, packaging, and path ADRs remain open.
Current reference: pig ext and pig repo describe the v1 Catalog behavior.
Scope: A candidate PIG 2.0 publication and consumption model for product metadata, not Inventory or live system state.

Decision

Catalog v2 should be one immutable, verifiable snapshot composed of multiple typed targets. A manifest binds platform, repository, route, package-alias, extension, compatibility, Pigsty release, and public-key metadata to exact bytes. Candidate targets are validated together and activated through one pointer, preventing a new repository catalog from being mixed silently with an old extension matrix.

Bootstrapping a Pigsty Controller as a Recoverable Transaction

Fri, 14 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Decision date: 2026-08-14
Status: Implemented and released in pig v1.8.0.
Current reference: pig sty boot
Scope: Preparing a Pigsty controller and its package sources; not deploying a database cluster.

Decision

pig sty boot should be one native, failure-aware controller bootstrap workflow. It resolves an explicit source before privilege elevation, prepares online or offline repositories, installs only the required controller packages, proves Ansible is usable, and performs bounded finishing checks.

v1.3.1 · 2026-03-05

pig v1.3.0

Fri, 27 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000

This release is a focused engineering update from v1.2.0 to v1.3.0: 15 commits, 74 files changed, +1184 / -236 LOC.

It hardens the pig build pipeline and extends catalog/alias coverage, increasing total extensions from 451 to 461.

Highlights

Build source download improvements (pig build get):
- Parse multi-source Source fields (whitespace/newline/tab) and deduplicate entries.
- Add source mappings for agensgraph / agentsgraph.
- pgedge now downloads both postgresql-17.9.tar.gz and spock-5.0.5.tar.gz.
Dependency resolution and install improvements (pig build dep):
- RPM dependencies can infer PG major from pgmajorversion in spec files; missing spec/control files now return explicit errors.
- DEB dependency parsing now covers Build-Depends / Build-Depends-Arch / Build-Depends-Indep, including multiline fields, alternatives, arch qualifiers, and build-profile cleanup.
- PGVERSION placeholders can be expanded from --pg, installed PG majors, or extension metadata.
- Dependency install failures are downgraded to warnings so batch runs continue.
DEB build result semantics fixed (pig build ext/pkg):
- Successful build command exit code is authoritative; artifact discovery is best-effort warning only.
- Suppress empty package-list banners on successful no-artifact runs.
- Partial artifacts are warnings, not failures.
- Build logs now print real metadata source/version values instead of always composing name-version.
Better machine-readable ext operation output (pig ext rm/update):
- After alias resolution, removed/updated now returns resolved package names instead of extension aliases.
Extension catalog and alias updates:
- New aliases: agensgraph / agens, pgedge, babelfishpg.
- openhalodb is aligned to PG14 package naming; ivorysqldb naming is aligned.
- Fork metadata and availability matrix were refreshed in batch (including timescaledb, pgmq, orioledb, documentdb, pg_tde, and babelfishpg_* entries).
Engineering and release:
- Version bumped to v1.3.0 (including a v1.2.1 transition commit), copyright year moved to 2026, and README refreshed for 461 extensions and current alias docs.

Compatibility Notes

Structured removed/updated fields in pig ext rm/update now contain package names. Automation that matched extension aliases should update parsing logic.

v1.1.1 · 2026-02-14

pig v1.1.0

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000

This version is a planned architecture-level upgrade from v1.0.0 to v1.1.0 (79 commits, 193 files changed), with the core goal of moving pig from a “human-friendly CLI” to an “agent-native orchestratable CLI”.

Seven new extensions are added, bringing the total available extensions to 451.

New Features

Land the unified agent-native output framework: introduce global --output (text/yaml/json/json-pretty), and provide unified Result structure, stable status codes, and machine-readable output for ext/repo/pg/pt/pb/pitr/status/version/context.
Introduce ANCS (Agent Native Command Schema) metadata: add semantic fields such as type/volatility/parallel/risk/confirm/os_user/cost, and make help emit a command capability tree directly in structured mode for agent-side capability and risk discovery.
Add pig context (pig ctx) environment snapshot command: aggregate host, PostgreSQL, Patroni, pgBackRest, and extension information in one call for direct agent workflow context injection.
Expand plan capabilities beyond PITR: add pig ext add/rm --plan, pig pg stop/restart --plan, pig pt switchover/failover --plan, and align with pig pitr --plan/--dry-run into a reviewable execution plan format (actions, scope, risks, expected outcomes).
Further improve structured result coverage: embed native pgbackrest info JSON, and unify structured return DTOs across Patroni/PostgreSQL/PITR/Repo/Ext subsystems for automation compatibility.
Strengthen compatibility layer: add legacy structured wrappers for existing command groups such as pg_exporter/pg_probe/do/sty, preserving legacy interaction behavior while exposing structured execution results and output capture.
Update pigsty to v4.1.0.

Bug Fixes

Security fix: resolve parsing panic in pig build proxy when receiving malformed proxy addresses.
Security fix: resolve path traversal risk in pig pg log, preventing access to files outside the log directory via ../../.
Security hardening: improve installer/repo path and quoting handling to reduce path injection and invalid-path misuse risks.
Build pipeline reliability fixes: correctly propagate errors and return non-zero exit codes in pig build get/pkg/ext when download/build fails; fix false failures in DEB builds caused by pg_ver mismatch.
Repo/catalog refresh fixes: support quiet mirror fallback for ext/repo reload; make repo add/set/rm return proper error status when cache updates fail.
Extension management fixes: adjust ext update to explicit-target updates and fix status drift issues; ensure ext import downloads requested DEB resources to the specified repo directory.
Output/observability fixes: align structured output exit code behavior with text mode rendering; improve permission handling and parsing stability in pg status.

SOW: Postpartum Care for 100,000 Packages

Tue, 11 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Today, let’s talk about Postpartum Care for Sows—a Chinese meme for the sort of absurdly specialized practical topic nobody expects to discuss. This time, the sow in question is my new open-source project, SOW.

When you maintain a PostgreSQL distribution, compiling the software is rarely the most painful part. The real pain is dealing with everything the build produces.

Pigsty maintains hundreds of components across multiple Linux distributions, CPU architectures, and major PostgreSQL versions. Multiply those combinations out, and the repository ends up with more than 100,000 artifacts: RPMs, DEBs, indexes, signatures, checksums, snapshots, and piles of metadata that exist only to keep package managers happy.

A Packaging Patch Has Been Corrupting Valkey's Memory Accounting Since 2017

Sun, 09 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

I was updating the Redis module in Pigsty recently, adding Valkey as an alternative engine, and hit an upstream bug while packaging it.

If your Valkey runs on Debian or Ubuntu, and one day the disk fills up or the data directory permissions go wrong so snapshots stop saving — every failed save drops the instance’s memory counter a little. Once it goes below zero it wraps to 18446744073709518664. From then on, if you have maxmemory set, the server refuses every write until you restart it.

Instantly Clone PostgreSQL Databases—No Black Magic Required

Mon, 06 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Six months ago, on January 8, 2026, I wrote Git for Data: Instant PostgreSQL Database and Instance Cloning, introducing a new feature in PostgreSQL 18 and Pigsty v4.0: instant database cloning. With filesystem copy-on-write (CoW) and PostgreSQL 18’s new file_copy_method = clone setting, you can clone a huge database in seconds without consuming additional storage.

This is a particularly good fit for AI agents. As I wrote in What Kind of Database Do AI Agents Need?, ultra-low-cost database cloning is critical for counterfactual experiments. So when Pigsty 4.0 shipped, I added this capability to its PostgreSQL database provisioning workflow.

What Is a PostgreSQL Distribution?

Sat, 04 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000

People often ask me: what exactly is Pigsty?

My usual answer is: a PostgreSQL distribution.

The next question is usually: what, then, is a “PostgreSQL distribution”?

That is a good question. And the best place to begin is not databases, but operating systems.

I. Start with Linux Distributions

When most people hear “distribution,” they think of Linux distributions: Red Hat, Debian, Ubuntu, SUSE, Arch, and so on. But if Linux already exists, why do we need Linux distributions? What exactly is the relationship between the two?

504 Extensions: Expand the PostgreSQL Landscape

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000

A GitHub issue turned into an extension sprint. 32 new additions say a lot about where PostgreSQL is headed.

It Started with a Chemistry Extension

Two days ago, a user opened a GitHub issue: he was using RDKit, the de facto standard library in cheminformatics, to store molecular structures, run substructure searches, and compute similarity inside PostgreSQL. He noticed that the official PGDG package was built without InChI support. After spending a while rebuilding it with the right compile flags, he got it working, but still hoped Pigsty could support it out of the box.

The PostgreSQL Extension Encyclopedia: Bilingual and Ready to Use

Fri, 13 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Directory: Chinese · English

Extensions are the soul of PostgreSQL. Without them, PostgreSQL is just a very good relational database. With them, it becomes a platform that can swallow entire categories of database workloads.

The problem is that the extension ecosystem has long been awkward to use. People struggle to find extensions, understand them, and install them. You search GitHub for README files, check PGXN for packages, and then wrestle with OS and PG version compatibility by hand.

464 Extensions, Ready Out of the Box: The New PostgreSQL Extension Catalog

Sun, 08 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Today I put Claude Code to work on another genuinely useful project: a completely new PostgreSQL extension catalog. You can find it at pigsty.io/ext.

This is already the catalog’s fifth incarnation. After a long detour, it has returned to the Hugo + Docsy stack used by the first version and has been folded back into the main Pigsty website. That journey is a story in its own right, which I will save for later. First, let us look at what this version actually does.

Forging a China-Rooted, Global PostgreSQL Distro

Thu, 27 Nov 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Hi, I’m Feng Ruohang, author of Pigsty and an independent open-source contributor. Let’s talk about how to build a PostgreSQL distribution that is rooted in China and useful to the whole world.

The question isn’t whether PG will win—it already has. The question is: What role do we play in that victory? Spectator or protagonist? Follower or leader?

Why now

PostgreSQL is the default database

Stack Overflow’s 2025 survey shows 58.2% of professional developers use PG—18.6 points ahead of MySQL, and the gap is widening. New SaaS, AI startups, even OpenAI default to PG. DB-Engines rankings and JetBrains surveys tell the same story.

On Trusting Open-Source Supply Chains

Sat, 22 Nov 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Yesterday’s post “PG ‘Export Controls’ and Supply-Chain Trust” drew a comment from someone claiming to be an admin at a university mirror site (Tsinghua TUNA):

“As a university mirror admin, calling us ‘lying flat’ or ‘irresponsible’ is unfair and demoralizing.”

I replied:

Thanks for the feedback and for everything TUNA/university mirrors have done over the years. I see the PostgreSQL repo had synced again at the time—credit where it’s due.

PG Extension Cloud: Unlocking PostgreSQL’s Entire Ecosystem

Wed, 12 Nov 2025 00:00:00 +0000

WeChat link

PostgreSQL’s killer feature is extensibility. PostGIS, pgvector, pg_duckdb, pg_search—extensions turn PG into GIS engine, vector DB, analytics warehouse, search cluster. But compiling and shipping them reliably across distros is a nightmare, especially when official mirrors freeze or your network can’t reach upstream.

After two years of grinding, I’m launching PGEXT.CLOUD: the infrastructure for discovering, packaging, and installing PG extensions.

What’s inside

Extension catalog – Browse 431 extensions with metadata, docs, compatibility matrices, how-to guides. Think “Wikipedia for PG extensions.”
Binary repos – Native RPM/DEB packages for 14 Linux releases and 6 major PG versions. No Docker-only traps.
pig CLI – A 4 MB Go tool that wraps your existing package manager and hides the matrix of platforms/versions.

Try it on a fresh server/container:

Build and Packaging: An Overlooked but Scarce Skill

Mon, 18 Aug 2025 00:00:00 +0000

I was recently chatting with my friend Yurii, the founder of Omnigres. He wants to hire a PostgreSQL packaging expert and has even coined a title for the role: EEE, or Extension Ecosystem Engineer. It is an interesting idea. The job description is public, so I have included it at the end.

A Scarce Skill: Linux Packaging

I think this job description asks for a little too much: DevRel + SRE + DBA + build engineer + PostgreSQL specialist, all in one person. It almost reads as though it were written for me. But I have genuinely never met anyone else with that exact combination, so I advised Yurii that hiring a build engineer who knows Debian and Enterprise Linux packaging inside out would be more realistic. Even that will be difficult, though. Scarce hardly begins to describe people who understand build and packaging work. DevRel talent may be scarcer still.

The PostgreSQL 'Supply Cut' and Trust Issues in Software Supply Chain

Fri, 15 Aug 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This month saw a high-profile “open source supply cut” incident — KubeSphere deleting images and running away, but there’s another slightly more subtle “chokepoint case” I mentioned last month — “Chokepoint: PGDG Cuts Mirror Sync Channels”. This “PostgreSQL supply cut” played the role of litmus test, nicely revealing the true colors of various database and cloud vendors.

I’m deeply disappointed and have stopped treating domestic cloud vendors and university mirrors as upstream software supply chain sources, directly building my own up-to-date domestic mirror of PGDG YUM/APT repositories.

PGDG Cuts Off Mirror Sync Channel

Mon, 07 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Recently, while building Pigsty offline packages, I discovered that the PostgreSQL version installed during local testing wasn’t quite right - 17.4 was behind the latest 17.5 by one minor version. Also, when testing on EL10, I found several repositories were throwing errors. Strangely, using the global default repository in Hong Kong worked fine, but once using Chinese mirror sites locally, errors occurred.

Upon closer inspection, I found that domestic mirror sites had all lost synchronization with the PostgreSQL upstream repository: Tsinghua University Open-Source Software Mirror Site (TUNA) last successful sync was May 16th, while Alibaba-Cloud Mirror Site’s last sync timestamp was March 31, 2025. Foreign mirror sites like mirrors.xtom.de also had this problem, with last sync on June 20th, though you could clearly see signs of manual updates and disconnection from sync.

Postgres Extension Day - See You There!

Wed, 09 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0000

The annual PostgreSQL developer conference will be held in Montreal in May. Like the first PG Con.Dev, there’s also an additional dedicated event - Postgres Extensions Day, focusing on all aspects of PG extension development, delivery, and release. The agenda has just been released with 14 sessions scheduled.

This time, I won’t just be an audience member - my talk is the first session of the afternoon: “The Missing Postgres Extension Repo and Package Manager”. I’ll introduce Pigsty’s extension repository and the pig package manager, sharing challenges and issues encountered when building and maintaining PG extensions, and sharing experiences, lessons, and insights from Chinese developers and database vendors (solo practitioners, haha) with global developers.

Pig, The Postgres Extension Wizard

Sun, 29 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Ever wished installing or upgrading PostgreSQL extensions didn’t feel like digging through outdated readmes, cryptic configure scripts, or random GitHub forks & patches? The painful truth is that Postgres’s richness of extension often comes at the cost of complicated setups—especially if you’re juggling multiple distros or CPU architectures.

Enter Pig, a Go-based package manager built to tame Postgres and its ecosystem of 440+ extensions in one fell swoop. TimescaleDB, Citus, PGVector, 20+ Rust extensions, plus every must-have piece to self-host Supabase — Pig’s unified CLI makes them all effortlessly accessible. It cuts out messy source builds and half-baked repos, offering version-aligned RPM/DEB packages that work seamlessly across Debian, Ubuntu, and RedHat flavors. No guesswork, no drama.

The Ideal Way to Deliver PostgreSQL Extensions

Sat, 02 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000

PostgreSQL Is Eating the Database World through the power of extensibility. When this post was first published, the repository packaged 390 PostgreSQL extensions as RPM / DEB packages for mainstream Linux distributions. The live Pigsty Extension Catalog has kept growing since then.

I believe the PostgreSQL community has reached a consensus on the importance of extensions. So the real question now becomes: “What should we do about it?”

What’s the primary problem with PostgreSQL extensions? In my opinion, it’s their accessibility. Extensions are useless if most users can’t easily install and enable them. But it’s not that easy.
