# grunt-bower-install-simple
Grunt Task for Installing Bower Dependencies
> ATTENTION: Bower is deprecated and obsolete! Use this Grunt task only for legacy purposes, please!
## Getting Started
This plugin requires Grunt `~0.4.0`
If you haven't used [Grunt](http://gruntjs.com/)
before, be sure to check out the [Getting
Started](http://gruntjs.com/getting-started) guide, as it explains how
to create a [Gruntfile](http://gruntjs.com/sample-gruntfile) as well as
install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process,
you may install this plugin with this command:
```shell
npm install grunt-bower-install-simple --save-dev
```
Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your
Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:
```js
grunt.loadNpmTasks("grunt-bower-install-simple");
```
## Task Options
- `color` (default `true`): Whether output is colorized.
The equivalent of `bower --config.color=`.
- `cwd` (default `process.cwd()`): The directory from which Bower should run.
All relative paths in Bower will be calculated according to this.
The equivalent of ``bower --config.cwd=`pwd` ``.
- `forceLatest` (default `false`): Force latest dependency version on conflict.
The equivalent of `bower install --force-latest`.
- `production` (default `false`): Do not install project `devDependencies`.
The equivalent of `bower install --production`.
- `interactive` (default `true`): Makes Bower interactive, prompting whenever necessary.
The equivalent of `bower --config.interactive=true`.
- `directory` (default `undefined`): The path in which installed components should be saved.
This defaults to `bower_components`.
The equivalent of `bower --config.directory=`.
- `command` (default `install`): Provide the bower command it should run.
Setting this to `update` will run `bower update` instead of `bower install`.
## Task Calling
_Run this task with the `grunt bower-install-simple` command._
Task targets, files and options may be specified according to the Grunt
[Configuring tasks](http://gruntjs.com/configuring-tasks) guide.
## Usage Example
Assuming we have the following build environment:
- `Gruntfile.js`:
```js
// [...]
grunt.initConfig({
"bower-install-simple": {
options: {
color: true,
directory: "lib"
},
"prod": {
options: {
production: true
}
},
"dev": {
options: {
production: false
}
}
}
});
grunt.registerTask("bower-install", [ "bower-install-simple" ]);
// [...]
```
- `bower.json`:
```json
{
"name": "sample",
"version": "0.0.0",
"devDependencies": {
"componentjs": "~1.2.7",
"jquery": "~2.1.4",
"lodash": "~3.10.1"
}
}
```
Then running `grunt bower-install` is functionality-wise equivalent
to running `bower --config.color=false --config.directory=lib install
--production`. It will read the `bower.json` and install ComponentJS,
jQuery and Lo-Dash into the local `lib` directory.
