dub-init - Initializes an empty package skeleton

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

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.

-t, --type=VALUE

Set the type of project to generate. Available types:

minimal - simple "hello world" project (default) vibe.d - minimal HTTP server based on vibe.d deimos - skeleton for C header bindings custom - custom project provided by dub package

-f, --format=VALUE

Sets the format to use for the package description file. Possible values:
json (default), sdl

-n, --non-interactive
