Component Downloader

Downloads components based on remotes.

• Either download a component based on specific fields, or just download the entire repository
• Unglobs all the fields of the component.json
• Normalizes the component.json
• Deletes corrupted installations

var Downloader = require('component-downloader');
var downloader = Downloader({
  concurrency: 5, // 5 files at a time
  verbose: true,
});

co(function* () {
  yield* download('component/emitter', '1.0.0');
  // will be installed to components/component/emitter/1.0.0
})

If you don't want to use generators:

var download = co(download);
download('component/emitter', '1.0.0', function (err) {
  if (err) throw err;
  console.log('downloaded!');
})
