Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Wire Bower dependencies to your source code.

Readme

wiredep

Wire dependencies to your source code.

Getting Started

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>

Build Chain Integration

gulp.js

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'));
});

Grunt

See grunt-wiredep.

Programmatic Access

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.
}

Command Line

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`

Bower Hooks

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"
  }
}

Configuration

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.
  },

  onError: function(err) {
    // err = Error object.

    // If not overridden, an error will throw.
  },

  onFileUpdated: function(filePath) {
    // filePath = 'name-of-file-that-was-updated'
  },

  onPathInjected: function(fileObject) {
    // fileObject.block = 'type-of-wiredep-block' ('js', 'css', etc)
    // fileObject.file = 'name-of-file-that-was-updated'
    // fileObject.path = 'path-to-file-that-was-injected'
  },

  onMainNotFound: function(pkg) {
    // pkg = 'name-of-bower-package-without-main'
  },

Bower Overrides

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"
    }
  }
}
