dub: package and build management system for D

Reported by: luc-j-bourhis (Luc J. Bourhis) Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.3.3
Keywords: Cc: tenomoto (Takeshi Enomoto)
Port: dub

Description

MacPorts provides the dmd compiler for the D language. Since "dub" has become the official system to build and package for D (in the sense that it is developed alongside dmd, phobos, etc: here), it makes sense for MacPorts to feature it too.

Thanks.

What you're doing in the patch phase should be changed to use the MacPorts reinplace command.

Thanks. I uploaded a new Portfile with that change.

Thanks. Using "use_configure no" means you're also responsible for writing code to ensure the port is UsingTheRightCompiler and -arch flags, and adding a universal variant if possible.

I see. I will try to replace the upstream build.sh by a proper MacPorts set up then.

Where does dub install D packages?

In ~/.dub by default. This can be changed with the command-line option --cache, I have been told, but I have never tried.

Note that dub does also create files in /tmp

The upstream script build.sh I used in my first attempt added a spurious dependency on pkg-config. So I added a Makefile instead. Still no need for configuration I think. Especially dmd should correctly compile a 32- or 64-bit executable depending on the platform but I don't have a 32-bit MacOS system to test that it is indeed so. Moreover I would not know how to build an universal executable with dmd.

What is the status of this? I could use dub =)

What's the blocker here? Can this be merged? Dub is the package manager for dlang and is extremely useful.
