Setup CI/CD pipeline for multi-platform binaries with pgvector integration

[costa-al]

Description:

We need to establish a CI/CD pipeline that automates the building, testing, and deployment of our application binaries across multiple platforms (Linux, macOS, Windows). This pipeline should also handle the integration and installation of the pgvector database.

Objectives:

• Multi-Platform Build: Configure the CI/CD pipeline to build the application for Linux, macOS, and Windows platforms.
• pgvector Integration: Automate the installation and setup of the pgvector database as part of the deployment process.
• Automated Testing: Implement automated testing to ensure the application and database integration works seamlessly on all platforms.
• Deployment: Automate the deployment of binaries to a release server or artifact repository.
• Versioning: Implement version control and release tagging within the pipeline.
• Documentation: Update documentation with new build and deployment processes.

Technical Requirements:

• CI/CD Platform: Use GitHub Actions or GitLab CI for pipeline setup.
• Scripting: Bash or PowerShell scripts for automation tasks, tailored to each target platform.
• Dependency Management: Ensure all dependencies, including those for pgvector, are correctly managed and installed.
• Testing Frameworks: Use appropriate testing frameworks compatible with the application's development language.
• Security: Implement security checks within the pipeline, including code analysis and vulnerability scanning.

Acceptance Criteria:

• The application builds successfully for Linux, macOS, and Windows.
• pgvector database is installed and configured automatically during the deployment process.
• Automated tests pass on all platforms indicating successful integration and functionality.
• Binaries are automatically deployed to the specified server or repository after successful build and test stages.
• Documentation accurately reflects the new pipeline and deployment processes.
