Push dopt to the DUB registry #8

Open livingsilver94 opened 1 year ago

For convenience, dopt should be pushed to the DUB registry. Do note though there already is a namesake package, so we'll either need some prefix/suffix, or to rename the library entirely.

This issue is especially important when using Meson to compile a project, since I wasn't able to find a straightforward way of downloading a library with dub by providing a URL. Since Meson can only look for local dub packages, I must manually dub fetch and dub build dopt first, but it's apparently impossible if dopt is not listed in the registry.

I'm not stuck on the name. Any suggestions?

Does dub really not support defining deps from a git source?

dflag or dflags?
