I have configurated my version file "version.txt", but I dont know how link this file to my program. If Need spec file, please send the exemple code of spec. Or is is possible add version file by dmd command line or resources. Thank you.

I'm not sure I know what you're asking, but maybe this is
the answer.

In version.txt:

  0.1.0 - a version example

In version.d:

  import std.string : chomp;

  immutable Version = import("version.txt").chomp;

  void main() {
      import std.stdio : writeln;
      writeln("Version: ", Version);
  }

To compile and run with both files in the current directory:

  dmd -J. -run version

With output:

  Version: 0.1.0 - a version example

The corresponding dub setting is probably stringImportPaths
