Changelog

v0.9.23 - YYYY-MM-DD

Features and improvements

  • Added support for dub init to take a list of dependencies. (by Colin Grogan)
    • Example usage (dub init myProj logger vibe-d gfm --type=vibe.d)
    • Dub will then try to get the latest version number for each of these dependencies from code.dlang.org and automatically add them to the dependencies section of dub.json.
    • If it cant find the dependant package name, it will ignore it,
    • Current functionality is preserved whereby project type can be determined by using [vibe.d, deimos or minimal] after package name. (So example above would be dub init myProj vibe.d logger vibe-d gfm).
    • Preferrable to use --type however, as this should be removed for next version.

v0.9.22 - 2014-09-22

Features and improvements

  • Implemented an improved dependency handling (supported by Matthias Dondorff)
    • Deprecated "~branch" based dependencies - these have proven to facilitate unresolvable versioning conflicts
    • Added a "selections" file that contains the pinned versions of all dependencies for more control - dub upgrade can be used to update this file
    • Package selections can be overridden user or system wide using dub add-override
    • When determining the version of a GIT working copy, the latest tag is preferred over the branch
    • See the full rationale
  • Implemented the dub dustmite command for comfortable creation of reduced test cases of DUB packages
    • All packages are automatically copied to an isolated folder where Dustmite can do its job
    • DUB is run in a special mode that doesn't require expensive initialization, so that it doesn't slow down the reduction process
    • The test condition can be a specific exit code or an output regex match on either the compiler, linker, or program run
  • Added support for single file builds (by Mathias Lang aka Geod24) - pull #364
  • The special "*" version specification now matches any version or branch (should always be used for referencing sub packages of the same package)
  • Warn about using certain build options outside of build types (in addition to warning about certain "dflags")
  • Removed explicit linking against Phobos on Linux when building using DUB (fixed building with DMD 2.065)
  • Fixed imports for DMD master (by John Colvin) - pull #283
  • Path based dependencies don't require a version number anymore (ignored)
  • Add support for vibe.d based HTTP downloads for better integration into vibe.d projects
  • "mainSourceFile" is now implicitly added to "sourceFiles"
  • "preGenerateCommands" are now run before collecting source files, enabling better support for generating source files - issue #144
  • Added a -missing-only switch to dub upgrade to get the same upgrade/fetch behavior as for dub build - see also issue #271
  • The default compiler is now the one that was used to build DUB itself (by Iain Buclaw) - pull #303
  • When running an executable, the working directory is now only changed if an explicit "workingDirectory" is specified
  • The compiler is now invoked to determine the actual build platform for the chosen compiler flags instead of simply guessing
    • Implemented for GDC by Kinsey Moore aka opticron - pull #324

  • When building a static library, its dependencies are not built anymore - issue #316
  • Displaying the line number where parsing a JSON document fails - see issue #317
  • Added a shorthand syntax for sub packages (":subpack" instead of "parent:subpack") - issue #315
  • Replace all "package.json" files/mentions with "dub.json" and clean up white space throughout the code base (by James Clarke aka jrtc27) - pull #337, pull #338, pull #339
  • dub describe not outputs all source/import files of all configurations and platforms - issue #185
  • Added basic support for the new human readable "systemDependencies" field
  • Added a --temp-build switch to force building in a temporary folder - issue #294
  • Using executeShell when invoking tools to enable more flexible use of shell features - issue #356
  • dub init now creates a default .gitignore file
  • An exit code of -9 for a tool now triggers a short message with a possible cause (out of memory)
  • The information about possible package upgrades is now cached for one day, resulting in less online queries to the package registry
  • Implemented separate compile/link mode for GDC (by Mathias Lang aka Geod24) - pull #367
