dubv2's Introduction
Dub v2 - Build System
Making it faster
Philosophy
Separate build system from package manager.
Have total backward compatibility on dub for initial versions.
On initial versions, develop using phobos only
Make it less stateful.
Achieve at least 90% of what dub does.
Isolate each process. This will make easier for adding and future contributors
Achieving it
Legend
api -> Can be freely be imported from any module
module -> Needs to be isolated as muhc as possible from each module. If one needs to communicate with other, a bridge/api may be created after the initial idea
Build system base
api: build configuration
module: Parse dub.json into a build configuration
module: Parse CLI to get the build root and an initial build configuration
module: Merge environment variables into build configuration
module: Output build dependency tree
module: Merge a tree node build configurations and output them
module: Convert build configuration into compilation flags
module: Transform build tree into dependency order tree
module: Spawn build processes for each tree level
Contributor Attracting
Isolate module as much as possible to attract contributors working on self contained modules which only gets input and returns an output
Starting small
No need to handle edge cases in the beginning. They may become even separate modules.
A week project
This project is very small. It is intended to be finished at most a week of work.
