NAME

       dub - Package and build management system for D

SYNOPSIS

       dub install <name> OPTIONS...

DESCRIPTION

       Note:  Use the "dependencies" field in the package description file (e.g. dub.json) if you
       just want to use a certain package as a dependency, you don't  have  to  explicitly  fetch
       packages.

       Explicit  retrieval/removal  of packages is only needed when you want to put packages to a
       place where several applications can share these. If you just  have  an  dependency  to  a
       package, just add it to your dub.json, dub will do the rest for you.

       Without specified options, placement/removal will default to a user wide shared location.

       Complete applications can be retrieved and run easily by e.g.

       $ dub fetch vibelog --cache=local

       $ cd vibelog

       $ dub

       This will grab all needed dependencies and compile and run the application.

       Note:  DUB  does  not  do  a  system  installation  of packages. Packages are instead only
       registered   within   DUB's   internal   ecosystem.   Generation    of    native    system
       packages/installers may be added later as a separate feature.

OPTIONS

       --version=VALUE
              Use  the  specified version/branch instead of the latest available match The remove
              command also accepts "*" here as a wildcard to remove all versions of  the  package
              from the specified location

       --force-remove
              Deprecated option that does nothing
