Hi

plpgsql_check extension is almost complete now. This extension is
available on all environments and for all supported Postgres releases. It
is probably too big to be part of contrib, but I think so it can be
referenced in
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/plpgsql-development-tips.html
chapter.

What do you think about it?

Without making any valuation on this particular tool, I think we should be
very very careful and restrictive about putting such links in the main
documentation.

The appropriate location for such references are in the product catalog on
the website and on the wiki. (I'd be happy to have a link from the docs to
a generic "pl/pgsql tips" page on the wiki, though, if people would think
that helpful -- because that would be linking to a destination that we can
easily update/fix should it go stale)

I created this page

https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Tools_and_tips_for_develpment_in_PL/pgSQL_language

Now, there is just a list of available tools. Please, can somebody check it
and clean and fix my Czechisms in text?
