digitalmars.D - Installing vibe via DUB

reply "Greg Knapp" <virtual.greg gmail.com> writes:
Hi,

I'm just starting out with D and vibe, apologies if this is the 
wrong place to ask vibe questions.

After installing DUB (dub-git on Arch Linux) and specifying 
vibe-d as a dependency of my project in 'package.json', I ran 
'dub upgrade' and vibe was installed. However, I can't start vibe 
as the bin file isn't found. It's installed local to my user with 
vibe in ~/.dub/packages/vibe-d-0.7.15/bin

This the recommended way to install vibe according to docs on the 
site. How have others installed vibe?

Thanks in advance.

I believe that this is the correct place to ask:

http://forum.rejectedsoftware.com/groups/rejectedsoftware.dub/

but if the main D forums were the place to ask, D.Learn would be better. 
Regardless, when you install dependencies via dub, I believe that it normally 
installs them in the .dub directory of your project, which works just fine for 
libraries (which I thought that vibe was, though I've never used it). I don't 
know how you'd deal with calling programs that were installed as executables.

Regardless, the link I gave you is to the dub-specific forums, so while some 
folks here may be able to help you, the folks there definitely can.

You'll have to take that up with the rejectedsoftware folks. It's their forum. 
The main D forums are set up to use newsgroups as their backend while allowing 
users to also interact via a web forum and e-mail, but AFAIK, they are unique 
in that regard. So, I wouldn't expect anyone else to be doing that unless they 
used the same software - which the rejectdsoftware folks could do, but it's up 
to them. On a related note, I believe that Vladimir was looking making the 
main D forums' software use vibe.d, but I don't know where he is with that.

I typically access the Rejected Software "forum" fine through NNTP, like
with the D groups themselves. It appears to work fine.

Vibed.org forums are similar but use own vibe.d-based front-end 
instead of DFeed.
