Toy extension demonstrating PostgreSQL extensions in Rust, implements base36_encode as found here. Initial heavy lifting was done over at jsoncdc, from which boilerplate code was liberaly stolen borrowed :).

Testing it out

• Build and start the image:

docker-compose up

• Bash into it:

docker exec -it $(docker ps | grep rpgbase | awk '{print $1}') /bin/bash 

• Once inside make and test:

make install && PGUSER=postgres make installcheck

There you go, we now have a fully functional PG extension written in Rust, and glued together with a pinch of C.

Looking forward to any feedback :)
