NAME

       dub-init - Initializes an empty package skeleton

SYNOPSIS

       dub init [<directory> [<dependency>...]] OPTIONS...  [-- <application arguments...>]

DESCRIPTION

       Initializes an empty package of the specified type in the given directory.

       By default, the current working directory is used.

       Custom templates can be defined by packages by providing a sub-package called "init-exec".
       No default source files are added in this case.

       The "init-exec" sub-package is compiled and executed inside the destination  folder  after
       the base project directory has been created.

       Free  arguments  "dub  init  -t  custom -- free args" are passed into the "init-exec" sub-
       package as app arguments.
