This is a very brief outline of how to build the driver. Much more detailed information can be
found on the [github repo](https://github.com/pgjdbc/pgjdbc/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)

Even though the JDBC driver should be built with Gradle, for situations, where use of Gradle is not possible, e.g., when building pgjdbc for distributions, the pgjdbc provides a convenience source release artifact **-src.tar.gz** - a Maven based project. The Maven based project contains a minimal version of the JDBC driver with reduced feature and test set and is still validly buildable within the Maven build environment.

Minimal version of the JDBC driver is created with **gradlew -d :postgresql:sourceDistribution -Prelease** and then released in the ["Maven central repository"](https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/postgresql/postgresql/).
