Hi,

We are looking to use your operator for our production Postgres inside a Kubernetes cluster. The only issue is we need some additional extensions. Would it be possible to:

- Can we request extensions to be added into the Postgres image
- Is there a way we can add additional extensions to the Postgres images? Assume we would need to build ontop of your images to achieve this.

We want to use `pg_partman` however it required `pg_cron` as well.

Thanks for you help.

Hello @Edd_Savage,  
As with all things Docker, you can build upon other’s images. Simply pull our image into your environment, add what you need to that, which will create a new container image. Then modify the crd and cr files to use this image.
