Hi all,

I'm trying to import a local dub package into a dub project (json format). I have added the package I'm trying to import with dub add-local and dub add-path and including it within the json file, but I get the error

$ dub build
Performing "debug" build using /.../ldc2/bin/ldc2 for x86_64.
myPackageName 0.1.0: target for configuration "library" is up to date.
test ~master: building configuration "application"...
source/app.d(1,8): Error: module `mymodule` is in file 'myPackageName/modules/mymodule.d' which cannot be read
import path[0] = source/
import path[1] = ../myPackageName/source/
import path[2] = /.../ldc2/bin/../import
/.../ldc2/bin/ldc2 failed with exit code 1.

The dependencies in the dub.json file looks like this:

	"dependencies": {
		"myPackageName": {
			"path": "/.../myPackageName",
			"version": "0.1.0"
		}
	}

Thanks in advance

Did you substitute something real with ... to hide it from your post? Because that's not a real path.

Note that if you use path dependencies, you do not have to dub add-local the package.

I used it to hide my actual paths.

OK, so reviewing with that in mind, it looks like you're trying to import myPackage.modules.mymodule, but the file ../myPackageName/source/myPackageName/modules/mymodule.d doesn't exist.

Is there one too many "myPackageName" packages here?

There also could be a typo somewhere, but that is masked by the fact that you substituted all the real names with these fake ones.

Yes, looks like that it works if I change to import modules.mymodule;.
