Deprecated. Please use Browserify, Rollup or Webpack

This task is designed for gulp 3+.

Install

$ npm install --save-dev gulp-bower

Usage

Install packages into the bower_components directory from bower.json dependencies:

var gulp = require('gulp');
var bower = require('gulp-bower');

gulp.task('bower', function() {
  return bower();
});

Examples

To install packages into a custom directory, pass the directory option:

var gulp = require('gulp');
var bower = require('gulp-bower');

gulp.task('bower', function() {
  return bower({ directory: './vendor' })
});

To set the current working directory, pass the cwd option:

var gulp = require('gulp');
var bower = require('gulp-bower');

gulp.task('bower', function() {
  return bower({ directory: './vendor', cwd: './client' })
});

By default gulp-bower runs 'install' command for Bower. Using cmd property, you can specify the custom command (e.g. update):

var gulp = require('gulp');
var bower = require('gulp-bower');

gulp.task('bower', function() {
  return bower({ cmd: 'update' });
});
