follows every upstream release, minors and majors included. Currently 0.20.1.
Not published yet. The first prometheus-postgres-exporter release is being built. These commands will work once it lands at deb.freshdeb.com/prometheus-postgres-exporter; the versions shown are the ones package.yaml will publish.

3Install
sudo apt update && sudo apt install prometheus-postgres-exporter
apt policy prometheus-postgres-exporter # expect 0.20.1-1+freshdeb~…Before you upgrade from the distribution's prometheus-postgres-exporter
The freshdeb version sorts higher, so apt upgrade moves you over in place. DATA_SOURCE_NAME keeps working. Changed since the distributions' versions: the log format (0.16), the replication_slot collector and metrics renamed to replication_slots, and --disable-settings-metrics removed (0.20). The package's NEWS entry lists them.
Compared with Debian's package
Debian's packaging decides where things go: package names, paths, users, services and how upgrades behave. The build follows upstream's own release builds wherever Debian's differs.
- Build
- Upstream's release build: pinned Go toolchain,
CGO_ENABLED=0, upstream's version stamps. Upstream's unit tests gate the build. - Init script
- Fixed for systems without systemd: it now exports
/etc/default/prometheus-postgres-exporter, so the exporter seesDATA_SOURCE_NAME. - Layout
- Debian's: the connection string in
/etc/default/prometheus-postgres-exporter, readable only byprometheus, systemd unit and init script.
Packing list
Every release line of prometheus-postgres-exporter and the distributions it's built for. Each line is its own APT component and only gets the releases it follows (main: every upstream release, minors and majors included). After upstream end of life it stops building but stays installable. Hatched cells have no build: usually that distribution already ships the same or a newer version itself.
