DESCRIPTION
Builds a package (uses the main package in the current working directory by default)

OPTIONS

--temp-build
    Builds the project in the temp folder if possible.

--rdmd
    Use rdmd instead of directly invoking the compiler

-f, --force
    Forces a recompilation even if the target is up to date

-y, --yes
    Automatic yes to prompts. Assume "yes" as answer to all interactive prompts.

-n, --non-interactive
    Don't enter interactive mode.

-b, --build=VALUE
    Specifies the type of build to perform. Note that setting the DFLAGS environment variable will override the build type with custom flags. Possible names:
      debug, plain, release, release-debug, release-nobounds, unittest, profile, profile-gc, docs, ddox, cov, cov-ctfe, unittest-cov, unittest-cov-ctfe, syntax and custom types

-c, --config=VALUE
    Builds the specified configuration. Configurations can be defined in dub.json

--override-config=VALUE
    Uses the specified configuration for a certain dependency. Can be specified multiple times. Format: --override-config=<dependency>/<config>

--compiler=VALUE
    Specifies the compiler binary to use (can be a path). Arbitrary pre- and suffixes to the identifiers below are recognized (e.g. ldc2 or dmd-2.063) and matched to the proper compiler type:

--single
    Treats the package name as a filename. The file must contain a package recipe comment.

--force-remove
    Deprecated option that does nothing.

--filter-versions
    [Experimental] Filter version identifiers and debug version identifiers to improve build cache efficiency.

--combined
    Tries to build the whole project in a single compiler run.

--print-builds
    Prints the list of available build types

--print-configs
    Prints the list of available configurations

--print-platform
