# Extensions
> PostgreSQL extensions are add-on modules that extend the functionality of your database beyond the core features. They provide additional data types, functions, operators, indexes, and other capabilities without requiring modifications to the PostgreSQL source code.
You can submit and vote for the extensions you want us to support next at [ps-extensions.io](https://ps-extensions.io/).
Extensions work by packaging related database objects (functions, data types, operators, etc.) into a single installable unit. When you install an extension, PostgreSQL loads the necessary code and creates the required database objects in your database schema. This modular approach allows you to add only the functionality you need while keeping your database lightweight and maintainable.
## Types of Extensions
PostgreSQL extensions generally fall into two main categories:
### Native Extensions
These are extensions that ship with PostgreSQL itself and are maintained by the PostgreSQL core team. Examples include:
* **Data type extensions**: `citext`, `hstore`, `uuid-ossp` for specialized data types
* **Index extensions**: `btree_gin`, `btree_gist` for advanced indexing capabilities
* **Text search extensions**: `unaccent`, `pg_trgm` for full-text search enhancements
* **Utility extensions**: `pgcrypto` for cryptographic functions, `tablefunc` for table manipulation
### Community Extensions
These are developed and maintained by the community or third-party organizations. Popular examples include:
* **Vector search**: `pgvector` for AI/ML vector operations
* **Query optimization**: `pg_hint_plan` for query plan hints
* **Partitioning**: `pg_partman` for automated table partitioning
Extensions that modify shared memory settings, background worker processes, or core database functionality typically require a restart. You can only enable these extensions through the [Dashboard](#configuring-extensions-in-the-dashboard).
Most simple extensions like data types or functions can be installed without a restart.
## Managing Extensions
Some extensions may require that you use a role with superuser privileges to enable them on your PlanetScale Postgres database. See [supported extensions](#supported-extensions) for more information.
### Installing an Extension
To install an extension in your database, use the `CREATE EXTENSION` command:
```sql theme={null}
CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS pgcrypto;
```
### Removing an Extension
To remove an extension from your database, use the `DROP EXTENSION` command:
```sql theme={null}
DROP EXTENSION IF EXISTS pgcrypto;
```
### Updating an Extension
To update an extension to a newer version, use the `ALTER EXTENSION` command:
```sql theme={null}
ALTER EXTENSION pgcrypto UPDATE;
```
### Viewing Installed Extensions
To see all extensions currently installed in your database, use this query:
```sql theme={null}
SELECT name, default_version, installed_version, comment
FROM pg_available_extensions
WHERE installed_version IS NOT NULL
ORDER BY name;
```
To view all available extensions (both installed and available for installation):
```sql theme={null}
SELECT name, default_version, comment
FROM pg_available_extensions
ORDER BY name;
```
### Installing Extensions in Specific Schemas
By default, extensions are installed in the `public` schema. To install an extension in a specific schema:
```sql theme={null}
CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS pgcrypto SCHEMA my_schema;
```
To move an existing extension to a different schema:
```sql theme={null}
ALTER EXTENSION pgcrypto SET SCHEMA new_schema;
```
Not all extensions support being installed in non-public schemas. Most utility and data type extensions work fine, but some system-level extensions must remain in the public schema.
## Configuring Extensions in the Dashboard
Some extensions require explicit configuration through the PlanetScale dashboard and may consume additional resources on your database instances. Configuring these extensions may require a database restart.
The extensions that require a restart are marked with a ✅ in the "Restart required" column. For `Production` clusters, these reboots are applied in a rolling cadence through the cluster's instances.
For detailed configuration instructions and parameter descriptions for each extension, please refer to their individual documentation pages via the 📝 links in the "Additional Notes" column.
## Troubleshooting
### Common Extension Issues
#### Extension not found
```sql theme={null}
ERROR: extension "extension_name" is not available
```
This means the extension is not installed on the server or not supported. Check the [supported extensions list](#supported-extensions) below.
#### Permission denied
```sql theme={null}
ERROR: permission denied to create extension "extension_name"
```
Extensions typically require database owner or superuser privileges. Contact support if you encounter permission issues.
#### Extension already exists
```sql theme={null}
ERROR: extension "extension_name" already exists
```
Use `CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS extension_name;` to avoid this error, or check installed extensions first.
#### Dependency conflicts
```sql theme={null}
ERROR: required extension "dependency_name" is not installed
```
Some extensions depend on others. Install the required dependency first, then retry installing your desired extension.
## Supported Extensions
### Table Column Legend
Newer Postgres versions ship with newer versions of extensions. When upgrading to a newer Postgres version, make sure to test your application for compatibility with those extension versions.\*
* **Extension**: Extension name with link to official documentation
* **Description**: Brief description of extension functionality
* **Version**: Version number available in PlanetScale (or *TBD* if placeholder)
* **Superuser required**: ⭐ = Extension requires superuser privileges to use its functionality
* **Restart required**: ✅ = Must be enabled through PlanetScale dashboard first because the extension requires shared libraries and a restart (blank = install directly with `CREATE EXTENSION`)
* **Additional Notes**: 📝 = Link to detailed configuration documentation
