This section gives a simple walk through of the steps to generate a new installer. In this example we are going to generate an installer for Linux using PostgreSQL version 10.5 Note: please make sure that you change/modify commands according to your needs

• Download required PostgreSQL source code from https://www.postgresql.org/ftp/source/
  • wget https://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/source/v10.5/postgresql-10.5.tar.gz
• Create directory with name of major version of the PostgreSQL
  • mkdir 10
• Build PostgreSQL with your required features, and install it in directory which you have created in step 2
• Clone git repository
  • git clone https://github.com/2ndQuadrant/postgres-installer.git
• Create new directory(Builds) on root of the Postgres Installer code
  • mkdir Builds
• Create new sub-directories inside Builds directory(this will reflect platforms for which you are going to generate a new installer. Folder names should be the same as bellow) i.e.
  • Windows
  • Linux
  • OSX
• Copy your build inside particular folder(We will copy it inside Linux because we are going to generate a Linux installer)
  • cp -r 10/ Builds/Linux/ Note: If you do not put build in specific folder then installbuilder will fail to generate installer.
• Open installer-properties.sh file and modify it as per your needs
  • vim installer-properties.sh
• Run autogen.sh this will generate PGInstaller.xml file
  • ./autogen.sh
• Generate your installer for the choice of your platform using PGInstaller.xml file
  • (path-to-install-builder)bin/builder build PGInstaller.xml linux --verbose At the end you have your Postgres Installer in output directory of installbuilder
