This repository is currently a research project and a work in progress. Feel free to play around with it and give us feedback.


Loading DuckPGQ

Since DuckDB v1.0.0, DuckPGQ can be loaded as a community extension without requiring the unsigned flag. From any DuckDB instance, the following two commands will allow you to install and load DuckPGQ:

install duckpgq from community;
load duckpgq;

See the DuckPGQ community extension page for more information.

For older DuckDB versions there are two ways to install the DuckPGQ extension. Both ways require DuckDB to be launched in the unsigned mode. The first way is by setting the custom_extension_repository command (see below). The other way is by directly downloading the extension file for your OS + architecture (see the DuckPGQ availibility section)

For CLI:

duckdb -unsigned
set custom_extension_repository = 'http://duckpgq.s3.eu-north-1.amazonaws.com';
force install 'duckpgq';
load 'duckpgq';

For Python:

import duckdb

conn = duckdb.connect(config = {"allow_unsigned_extensions": "true"})
conn.execute("set custom_extension_repository = 'http://duckpgq.s3.eu-north-1.amazonaws.com';")
conn.execute("force install 'duckpgq';")
conn.execute("load 'duckpgq';")

Direct download

To use the extension, check the direct download links below. To install and load the extension, launch DuckDB in unsigned mode and execute the commands:

force install 'path/to/duckpgq_extension';
load 'duckpgq';

Building

Managing dependencies

DuckDB extensions uses VCPKG for dependency management. Enabling VCPKG is very simple: follow the installation instructions or just run the following:

git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git
./vcpkg/bootstrap-vcpkg.sh
export VCPKG_TOOLCHAIN_PATH=`pwd`/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake

Note: VCPKG is only required for extensions that want to rely on it for dependency management. If you want to develop an extension without dependencies, or want to do your own dependency management, just skip this step. Note that the example extension uses VCPKG to build with a dependency for instructive purposes, so when skipping this step the build may not work without removing the dependency.

Build steps

Now to build the extension, run:

make

The main binaries that will be built are:

./build/release/duckdb
./build/release/test/unittest
./build/release/extension/duckpgq/duckpgq.duckdb_extension

Running the extension

To run the extension code, simply start the shell with ./build/release/duckdb.

Running the tests

Different tests can be created for DuckDB extensions. The primary way of testing DuckDB extensions should be the SQL tests in ./test/sql. These SQL tests can be run using:

make test

Installing the deployed binaries

To install your extension binaries from S3, you will need to do two things. Firstly, DuckDB should be launched with the allow_unsigned_extensions option set to true. How to set this will depend on the client you're using. Some examples:

CLI:

duckdb -unsigned

Python:

con = duckdb.connect(':memory:', config={'allow_unsigned_extensions' : 'true'})

NodeJS:

db = new duckdb.Database(':memory:', {"allow_unsigned_extensions": "true"});

Secondly, you will need to set the repository endpoint in DuckDB to the HTTP url of your bucket + version of the extension you want to install. To do this run the following SQL query in DuckDB:

SET custom_extension_repository='bucket.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/<your_extension_name>/latest';

Note that the /latest path will allow you to install the latest extension version available for your current version of DuckDB. To specify a specific version, you can pass the version instead.

After running these steps, you can install and load your extension using the regular INSTALL/LOAD commands in DuckDB:

INSTALL duckpgq
LOAD duckpgq
