importing from Internet

[katahiromz]

Could you support "importing from Internet" feature? I think
that'll be very convenient.

import "http://example.com/MyLibrary.d";

This is already supported in dub.

The closest thing that is planned to be supported is enabling single-file projects to embed their package description in the source file (#103). This could look similar to this:

/*!DUB
  dependencies: {"somedep": "~>1.0.0"}
*/
void main()
{
   somedepFunc("Hello, World");
}

Supporting arbitrary URLs for the "path" attribute of dependencies (#50) would then also enable

/*!DUB
  dependencies: {
    "somedep": {"path": "http://example.com/somedep/"}
  }
*/
void main()
{
   somedepFunc("Hello, World");
}

But this would only work for projects consisting of a single source file. For larger projects, it would just be a lot cleaner to aggregate dependencies in one place, so that it remains easy to see what is going on.
