# What is pgmodeler-builder

A set of Github actions for generating monthly
builds of pgModeler for both Linux, Windows, and MacOS.

## What is pgModeler?

An **open-source, multiplatform database modeler for PostgreSQL**.
This project aims to be a reference database design tool when it
comes to FOSS in the PostgreSQL ecosystem.

## What is released?

In the [releases section](https://github.com/ccamacho/pgmodeler-builder/releases)
there will be a monthly build including:

- A build tarball for MacOS, Windows and Linux compiled sources.
- An .AppImage for Linux.
- A .dmg file for ARM MacOS.
- A .exe installer for Windows.

The workflow builds two pgModeler versions each month:

- **v1.2.3** (latest stable) — built with qmake
- **v2.0.0-beta** (latest pre-release) — built with cmake

These are configured in the `matrix` sections of the
[Windows](https://github.com/ccamacho/pgmodeler-builder/blob/main/.github/workflows/builder.yml),
[Linux](https://github.com/ccamacho/pgmodeler-builder/blob/main/.github/workflows/builder.yml),
and
[MacOS](https://github.com/ccamacho/pgmodeler-builder/blob/main/.github/workflows/builder.yml)
jobs inside `builder.yml`.

For adding new versions or releases include the new ones in the
`matrix.include` list for all three platform jobs.

## What is missing?

Several optimizations could be applied to the workflow to make
the builds smaller and optimize how it runs. Any feedback and
improvements are welcomed with PRs.

- Making sure only the required libs are included.
- Avoiding duplicated builds and packages in the releases assets.
- Including commit information when creating builds from a
  branch.

## Usage hints

### Linux

- Create the default config folders: `mkdir -p ~/.config/pgmodeler-1.2`
- Make the AppImage executable: `chmod +x pgModeler-*.AppImage`

### MacOS

- Open the .dmg file and drag pgModeler to your Applications folder.

### Windows

- Run the `pgmodeler-windows-setup-*.exe` installer.
