When I do a bower install jquery-ui --save , bower_modules/jquery-ui is created.
This repo does not contain the Gruntfile.js
Does bower install delete files from the repo?
Is there a way to configure this?
The jquery-ui used by this bower package points to https://github.com/components/jqueryui and not to https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui
This repo only contains the precompiled files from jquery-ui.

I want to use datatable and toastr plugins on my project using laravel as my framework. should i include these on bower.json file? if so, what value should I put?
I can do this manually via bower install (git location) on the command prompt though, but I'm just wondering if I can do this on bower.json file so that I can just do the bower install command.
If you want to simply add them to the bower.json file, you can add them to dependencies like such:
{
"name": "your-application-name",
"dependencies": {
"toastr": "^2.1.3",
"datatables.net": "^1.10.16"
}
}
If you're still interested in saving them to the bower.json file from the command line, you can do it by including the --save flag to your install command:
$ bower install --save toastr
$ bower install --save datatables.net
That will download the components as well as add them to the bower.json file.
I have just installed font-awesome via bower:
bower install font-awesome --save
And it appears to not add the CSS at the bower build.
How can I install it?
When you use font-awesome via bower it does not include the CSS when you build it. Try using:
bower install components-font-awesome --save
It should work just fine.
In bower.json, add lines in dependencies ("components-font-awesome"):
{
"name": "example",
"version": "0.0.1",
"dependencies": {
"jquery": "~2.1.1",
"bootstrap-sass-official": ">=3.3.0",
"components-font-awesome": "^4.7.0"
}
}
Run bower install, You will get files in the bower_components folder.
check the latest or specific version of font awesome you want to install form following link
https://libraries.io/bower/Font-Awesome/tags?page=1
current latest version of fontaswesome is 5.15.3
https://libraries.io/bower/Font-Awesome/5.15.3
bower install Font-Awesome#5.15.3
people also like version 4 as well
https://libraries.io/bower/Font-Awesome/v4.7.0
bower install Font-Awesome#v4.7.0
bower install components-font-awesome --save
Use this command to install font-awesome via bower.
If the above command doesn't work that is it does not include the CSS when you build it.
Try using the following commands.
bower install components-font-awesome --save
bower install font-awesome --save
This should be following command:
bower install fontawesome --save
I'm trying to install Angular2 with Bower with command bower install -S angular2 and have next messages in console:
$ bower install -S angular2
bower angular2#* cached git://github.com/angular/bower-angular.git#1.4.8
bower angular2#* validate 1.4.8 against git://github.com/angular/bower-angular.git#*
bower angular#~1.4.8 install angular#1.4.8
angular#1.4.8 bower_components/angular
My bower.json file now contains next info in dependencies section:
"dependencies": {
"angular": "angular2#~1.4.8"
}
And I have Angular 1.4.8 after that in bower_components path.
So, how to install Angular2 beta with Bower?
I have installed it from github with the command bower install git#github.com:angular/angular.git:
$ bower install git#github.com:angular/angular.git
bower angular#* not-cached git#github.com:angular/angular.git#*
bower angular#* resolve git#github.com:angular/angular.git#*
bower angular#* checkout 2.0.0-build.ffbcb26.js
bower angular#* invalid-meta angular is missing "main" entry in bower.json
bower angular#* invalid-meta angular is missing "ignore" entry in bower.json
bower angular#* resolved git#github.com:angular/angular.git#2.0.0-build.ffbcb26.js
bower angular#~2.0.0-build.ffbcb26.js install angular#2.0.0-build.ffbcb26.js
angular#2.0.0-build.ffbcb26.js bower_components/angular
I advise you not to use Bower. Bower is used to get your packages in your project folder, that's it.
Try to look up JSPM (http://jspm.io). It does a lot more than getting packages in your project. It takes care of ES6 to ES5. And loads all your packages in one time using SystemJS in your browser with just a couple lines of code.
you can install jspm using npm:
npm init
npm install (-g) jspm // -g only if you want jspm globally installed
jspm init
This worked for me, for Angular 2 bower install angular2-build
We have an internal library that can be installed via bower install git link. How do I add the git link inside the bower.json file so that when I run bower install, it will install it too?
Didn't know it was easy. I just reinstalled it with --save and it updated my bower.json file. Now I know how it looks like inside the bower.json file.
I run the following commands using bower 1.0.0:
mkdir testdir;cd testdir
bower init #accept defaults
bower install jquery -s #the -s is supposed to cause update of bower.json
less bower.json
In bower.json I expect to see dependencies listed, but there are none. What is going on?
NOTE: bower install jquery --save does work
NOTE:
The option I am referring to was documented through bower help install
**-S**, --save Save installed packages into the project's bower.json dependencies
from bower help, save option has a capital S
-S, --save Save installed packages into the project's bower.json dependencies
