Wire dependencies to your source code.
Install the module with npm:
$ npm install --save wiredep
Install your bower dependencies (if you haven't already):
$ bower install --save jquery
Insert placeholders in your code where your dependencies will be injected:
<html>
<head>
<!-- bower:css -->
<!-- endbower -->
</head>
<body>
<!-- bower:js -->
<!-- endbower -->
</body>
</html>
Let wiredep
work its magic:
$ node
> require('wiredep')({ src: 'index.html' });
index.html modified.
{ packages:
{ jquery:
{ main: [Object],
type: [Object],
name: 'jquery',
dependencies: {} } },
js: [ 'bower_components/jquery/dist/jquery.js' ] }
<html>
<head>
<!-- bower:css -->
<!-- endbower -->
</head>
<body>
<!-- bower:js -->
<script src="bower_components/jquery/dist/jquery.js"></script>
<!-- endbower -->
</body>
</html>
wiredep works with streams and integrates with gulp.js out of the box:
var wiredep = require('wiredep').stream;
gulp.task('bower', function () {
gulp.src('./src/footer.html')
.pipe(wiredep({
optional: 'configuration',
goes: 'here'
}))
.pipe(gulp.dest('./dest'));
});
See grunt-wiredep
.
You can run wiredep
without manipulating any files.
require('wiredep')();
...returns...
{
js: [
'paths/to/your/js/files.js',
'in/their/order/of/dependency.js'
],
css: [
'paths/to/your/css/files.css'
],
// etc.
}
Install wiredep globally to wire up Bower packages from the terminal.
$ npm install -g wiredep
$ wiredep
Wire Bower dependencies to your source code.
Usage: $ wiredep [options]
Options:
-h, --help # Print usage information
-v, --version # Print the version
-b, --bowerJson # Path to `bower.json`
-d, --directory # Your Bower directory
-e, --exclude # A path to be excluded
-i, --ignorePath # A path to be ignored
-s, --src # Path to your source file
--dependencies # Include Bower `dependencies`
--devDependencies # Include Bower `devDependencies`
--includeSelf # Include top-level bower.json `main` files
--verbose # Print the results of `wiredep`
You may also take advantage of Bower >=1.3.1's hooks, with a .bowerrc
such as:
{
"scripts": {
"postinstall": "wiredep -s path/to/src.html"
}
}
require('wiredep')({
directory: 'the directory of your Bower packages.', // default: '.bowerrc'.directory || bower_components
bowerJson: 'your bower.json file contents.', // default: require('./bower.json')
src: ['filepaths', 'and/even/globs/*.html' 'to take', 'control of.'],
// ----- Advanced Configuration -----
// All of the below settings are for advanced configuration, to
// give your project support for additional file types and more
// control.
//
// Out of the box, wiredep will handle HTML files just fine for
// JavaScript and CSS injection.
cwd: 'path/to/where/we/are/pretending/to/be',
dependencies: true, // default: true
devDependencies: true, // default: false
includeSelf: true, // default: false
exclude: [ /jquery/, 'bower_components/modernizr/modernizr.js' ],
ignorePath: /string or regexp to ignore from the injected filepath/,
overrides: {
// see `Bower Overrides` section below.
//
// This inline object offers another way to define your overrides if
// modifying your project's `bower.json` isn't an option.

To override a property, or lack of, in one of your dependency's bower.json
file, you may specify an overrides
object in your own bower.json
.
As an example, this is what your bower.json
may look like if you wanted to override package-without-main
's main
file:
{
...
"dependencies": {
"package-without-main": "1.0.0"
},
"overrides": {
"package-without-main": {
"main": "dist/package-without-main.js"
}
}
}
In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using npm test
.
