Borrower
========


Forget complexity of Require.js config, don't worry about running Bower install.

Note: this project is a work in progress.

The goal is to keep a single configuration file and a working enviromnemnt with a single install command.

Usage
-----

``shell
$ npm install borrower --save

$ node_modules/.bin/borrower install jquery --save
`

It will install Bower Components in static_modules/ and save dependency in package.json.

`html

`

Require.js is configured, you can just focus on your Javascript.

That's all folks !

Configuration
-------------

package.json
`
{
...
staticDependencies: [...],
...
config: {
bower: {
directory: 'static_modules', // name of the folfder containing dependencies
cwd: '', // where static modules must be installed
baseUrl: '' // location of the ducoment root
// an absolute path from this location will be used in requirejs config
// if empty, a relative path will be used
}
}
}
`

Configurations from .bowerrc are available in package.json > config > bower

express static example: ...


How it works
------------

`shell
$ borrower init
`

It will register a npm postinstall hook in your package.json to run Bower and configure Require on every npm install.

Require.js is configured inside static_modules/require.js` and updated at each install run.
