Generally, like in any other language. Write files, use calls
and APIs available inside Postgres, compile it and install to
postgres directory.
The only one I know of as of now is https://github.com/postgrespro/rusmorph
And it's not an example of a well-documented extension, unfortu-
nately.
Hoewever, it works. It's possible that you can find some more
examples on pgxn.org
Also, probably you would need to compile it with
USE_PGXS=1 make with_llvm=no
While the USE_PGXS=1 is a standard way to compile extension out
of the postgres source tree, the with_llvm=no is a workaround of
some bug in the llvm-7, that doesn't allow JIT compilation of C++
code.
