DUB-FETCH(1)

NAME
dub-fetch - Explicitly retrieves and caches packages

SYNOPSIS
dub fetch <package>[@<version-spec>] OPTIONS...

DESCRIPTION
When run with one or more arguments, regardless of the location it is run in, it will fetch the packages matching the argument(s). Examples: $ dub fetch vibe-d $ dub fetch vibe-d@v0.9.0 --cache=local --recursive When run in a project with no arguments, it will fetch all dependencies for that project. If the project doesn't have set dependencies (no 'dub.selections.json'), it will also perform dependency resolution. Example: $ cd myProject && dub fetch Note that the 'build', 'run', and any other command that need packages will automatically perform fetch, hence it is not generally necessary to run this command before any other.
