You can look for inspiration in our own github actions. Depends on what you wanna do. An easy starting point are probably the package tests.
E.g.: https://github.com/timescale/timescaledb/blob/main/.github/workflows/apt-packages.yaml

@svenklemm thanks for your reply. I am using timescaledb in production. During tests, I hit it to run some queries against it. Currently I am using

    services:
      postgres:
        image: postgres:16

in GitHub actions, but I am looking to install and use timescaledb instead.

Having said that, I tried using something similar to the actions in your link, but didn't work. Maybe I will give it another try
