like require.resolve() on behalf of bower files asynchronously and synchronously
npm install resolve-bowerbased off of substack's resolve
implements the node require.resolve()
algorithm
such that you can require.resolve() on behalf of a bower file asynchronously and
synchronously

asynchronously resolve:
`` js`
var resolve = require('resolve-bower');
resolve('tap', { basedir: __dirname }, function (err, res) {
if (err) console.error(err)
else console.log(res)
});
``
$ node example/async.js
/home/substack/projects/node-resolve/bower_components/tap/lib/main.js
synchronously resolve:
` js`
var resolve = require('resolve-bower');
var res = resolve.sync('tap', { basedir: __dirname });
console.log(res);
``
$ node example/sync.js
/home/substack/projects/node-resolve/bower_components/tap/lib/main.js
` js`
var resolve = require('resolve-bower')
Asynchronously resolve the module path string pkg into cb(err, res).
options are:
* opts.basedir - directory to begin resolving from
* opts.package - package from which module is being loaded
* opts.extensions - array of file extensions to search in order
* opts.readFile - how to read files asynchronously
* opts.isFile - function to asynchronously test whether a file exists
* opts.packageFilter - transform the parsed bower.json contents before looking
at the "main" field
* opts.paths - require.paths array to use if nothing is found on the normal
bower_components recursive walk (probably don't use this)
* opts.moduleDirectory - directory to recursively look for modules in. default:
"bower_components"
default opts values:
` javascript`
{
paths: [],
basedir: __dirname,
extensions: [ '.js' ],
readFile: fs.readFile,
isFile: function (file, cb) {
fs.stat(file, function (err, stat) {
if (err && err.code === 'ENOENT') cb(null, false)
else if (err) cb(err)
else cb(null, stat.isFile())
});
},
moduleDirectory: 'bower_components'
}
Synchronously resolve the module path string pkg, returning the result andpkg
throwing an error when can't be resolved.
options are:
* opts.basedir - directory to begin resolving from
* opts.extensions - array of file extensions to search in order
* opts.readFile - how to read files synchronously
* opts.isFile - function to synchronously test whether a file exists
* opts.packageFilter - transform the parsed bower.json contents before looking

* opts.moduleDirectory - directory to recursively look for modules in. default:

default opts values:
` javascript``
{
paths: [],
basedir: __dirname,
extensions: [ '.js' ],
readFileSync: fs.readFileSync,
isFile: function (file) {
try { return fs.statSync(file).isFile() }
catch (e) { return false }
},
moduleDirectory: 'bower_components'
}
Return whether a package is in core.
With npm do:
```
npm install resolve
