How can I create a Standalone Bundle Portable file

Could you describe what you mean with "Bundle portable file
application"?
All dependencies inside an exe file. Like Python Pyinstaller.
One possible way is to use import() operator to embed file into
resulting artifact, then write it to disk in main or module ctor
and load as usual.
note however you need to tell compiler about file lookup path (-J
flag) or use dub string import path respectively.
// compile time
enum myEmbeddedFile = import("path/to/file");
// pseudocode
void main()
{
// write file at runtime
write(cast(ubyte[]) myEmbeddedFile, "./myfile.ext");
// or use directly from memory
writeln(myEmbeddedFile)
}
this however not possible with implicit dynamic linking, though
you still can use this approach if you do use LoadLibrary/dlopen
yourself.
