## Upgrading with extensions:
If your current postgres installation has extensions installed, for example [TimescaleDB](https://www.timescale.com/), you'll have to create a custom container that has the needed extensions installed in both the old and new version of Postgres.
Additionally, supplying an option to pre-load any required libraries in the upgrade process is needed (`"-c shared_preload_libraries=YOUR_PLUGIN"`).

For a simple example with TimescaleDB, refer to [this comment](https://github.com/timescale/timescaledb/issues/2260#issuecomment-686786971).
