NAME

       dub - Package and build management system for D

SYNOPSIS

       dub build [<package>[@<version-spec>]] OPTIONS...

DESCRIPTION

       Builds a package (uses the main package in the current working directory by default)

OPTIONS

       --rdmd Use rdmd instead of directly invoking the compiler

       -f,    Forces a recompilation even if the target is up to date

       -y,    Automatic yes to prompts. Assume "yes" as answer to all interactive prompts.

       -n,    Don't enter interactive mode.

       -b,    Specifies  the  type  of build to perform. Note that setting the DFLAGS environment
              variable will override the build type with custom flags.  Possible names:
                debug  (default),  plain,  release,  release-debug,  release-nobounds,  unittest,
              profile, profile-gc, docs, ddox, cov, unittest-cov, syntax and custom types

       -c,    Builds the specified configuration. Configurations can be defined in dub.json

       --override-config=VALUE
              Uses  the  specified  configuration  for  a  certain  dependency.  Can be specified
              multiple times.  Format: --override-config=<dependency>/<config>

       --compiler=VALUE
              Specifies the compiler binary to use (can be a path).  Arbitrary pre- and  suffixes
              to the identifiers below are recognized (e.g. ldc2 or dmd-2.063) and matched to the
              proper compiler type:
                dmd, gdc, ldc, gdmd, ldmd

       -a,    Force a different architecture (e.g. x86 or x86_64)

       -d,    Define the specified debug version identifier when building - can be used  multiple
              times

       --nodeps
              Do not resolve missing dependencies before building

       --build-mode=VALUE
              Specifies the way the compiler and linker are invoked. Valid values:
                separate (default), allAtOnce, singleFile

       --single
              Treats  the  package  name  as  a  filename. The file must contain a package recipe
              comment.

       --force-remove
              Deprecated option that does nothing.

       --filter-versions
              [Experimental] Filter version identifiers and debug version identifiers to  improve
              build cache efficiency.

       --combined
              Tries to build the whole project in a single compiler run.

       --print-builds
              Prints the list of available build types

       --print-configs
              Prints the list of available configurations

       --print-platform
              Prints  the identifiers for the current build platform as used for the build fields
              in dub.json

       --parallel
              Runs multiple compiler instances in parallel, if possible.
