Introduction from omkar (GSoC 2025)

Hello PgRouting developers,

My name is Omkar Tipugade, and I am pursuing a bachelor’s degree in computer science. I am excited to offer my contributions to the PgRouting project. I have a solid background in programming languages such as Java, TypeScript, JavaScript, C, and C++. Additionally, I have practical experience with Git, GitHub, React.js, HTML, CSS, and SQL. I am eager to engage with the community and enhance my skills while contributing to the project’s development.

I would greatly appreciate your guidance on how I can get involved and contribute to ongoing projects. I am particularly interested in applying my skills to support PgRouting’s initiatives and collaborating with community members.

I would like to contribute to this project: GSoC Ideas: 2025 · pgRouting/pgrouting Wiki · GitHub.
Thank you for considering my request. I look forward to your response.

Warm regards,
Omkar Tipugade

pgRouting GSOC application requirements

Hello @robe
I am facing issue in compilation of GSoC-pgRouting

How to resolve this

Hi @om3904 ,

Please confirm that all requirements are installed. The compilation error occurs because PostgreSQL isn’t being recognized. Make sure PostgreSQL (including its development headers/libraries) is installed, then re-run the build steps. Thanks!

@om3904 I since for Ubuntu, you need to do:

apt install postgresql-server-dev-17

As detailed in our ci workflow - pgrouting/.github/workflows/ubuntu.yml at main · pgRouting/pgrouting · GitHub

You’ll also need postgis. Anyway just follow the workflow and make sure you have all those things it installs around there installed.

Ok, Thank you @robe

Thanks @iosefa
