On the off chance that anyone is interested, I've attached a small, very
simple, Bash script I've made that takes care of building, installing
and uninstalling small and simple D libraries. Just put it somewhere in
your path, mark it as executable, and off you go. :) Note that it only
works with DMD.
It assumes a straightforward library structure. As an example, say you
have a library "foo" consisting of, say, the modules foo.bar and
foo.baz. These should then be located in the files foo/bar.d and foo/baz.d.
Then, from foo/'s parent directory, type the following commands.
To build the library (it will be located in .dlib/libfoo.a afterwards):
dlib build foo
To install the library and sources to /usr/local:
sudo dlib install foo
To remove the library and sources again:
sudo dlib remove foo
To remove dlib's hidden working dir:
dlib clean
I made the script for my own, personal use. Though it ain't exactly
DSSS, I hope that someone else will find it useful as well. :)
