dub-build-deep

dub-build-deep is a simple utility that fetches and builds all dependencies of a DUB package for a specified compiler, architecture, configuration, etc.

This program is needed because DUB won't do a recursive build when sub-dependencies are static libraries (virtually 100% of Dub library packages).

This is mainly useful for D projects working with Meson, which expects all the needed DUB dependencies and sub-dependencies to be already available during the meson setup phase.

Manual

$ dub-build-deep -h
dub-build-deep v1.0.1 - An utility to build DUB sub-dependencies

Usage:
    dub-build-deep [options] (package name)[@version]

Most options are the same than expected by DUB describe.

            --config Specify a DUB configuration
   --override-config Specify a DUB configuration for a sub-dependency
               --dub Specify a DUB executable
          --compiler D compiler to be used
              --arch Architecture to target
             --build The build type (debug, release, ...)
-h            --help This help information.

Usage example

• Build vibe-d:http@0.9.4 and all sub-dependencies
• For compiler dmd, architecture x86_64 and build type release
• Dub configuration notls is specified for the subpackage vibe-d:tls

$ dub run dub-build-deep -- --override-config vibe-d:tls/notls --compiler dmd --arch x86_64 --build release vibe-d:http@0.9.4`
