dub 1.11.0: building configuration "library-nonet"...

How to reproduce?

    "dependencies": {
        "dub": "~>1.11.0"
    },
     "subConfigurations": {
         "dub": "library-nonet"
     }

or

    "dependencies": {
        "dub": "~>1.11.0"
    },
     "subConfigurations": {
         "dub": "dynamic-library-nonet"
     }

Expected Behavior

The said configuration can be used without breaking the package.

Workaround

"subConfigurations": {
        "dub": "library"
     }

@s-ludwig I am not really sure how to solve this.
HTTPStatusException is either introduced by version DubUseCurl or Have_vibe_d_http.

Is library-nonet still relevant? What should be the proposed solution?

• HTTPStatusException is also always introduced
• Package supplier maven & registry are not available for library-nonet
• Coding using HTTPStatusException is deactivated if library-nonet is used
• Remove library-nonet
• ...

[andre2007]

I tried it with dub-docs (https://github.com/dlang/dub-docs) which also uses "library-nonet" and set dub version to "~master". There is no syntax error.
Is the issue still reproducible for you with master?

[0xEAB]

unfortunately, not working here.
(You might have forgotten to dub upgrade?)

dub-docs might have version Have_vibe_d_http set

[Geod24]

The bug report is still valid. To work around it, dub itself download vibe-d. See the CI script.
I'm not sure what the intent of library-nonet is either.

Package supplier maven & registry are not available for library-nonet

That's not an option, as one might have a local (on disk) Maven package supplier.
EDIT: Actually, the code doesn't seem to support this, there's an assert(false) in download.
I'd be in favor of always having HTTPException, or removing nonet. I think the former is a simple fix.

It would allow you to use the build system features without all the networking bloat.

No. Nonet is stands for a dub build without curl, but vibe-http (pure D). This is advantageous if you need to build dub for a system where obtaining curl is hard or you need to build a fully statically linked library.

[Geod24]

Nonet is stands for a dub build without curl, but vibe-http (pure D).

Do you know why the vibe-http dependency is marked as optional ?

[wilzbach]

Maybe because of a bug which otherwise would require it being downloaded even for the default build?

[Geod24]

Yeah, we really need to fix this one.

[0xEAB]

No.

Naming that config nonet is horribly misleading then.
