sbt-bower

An SBT plugin which downloads dependencies using bower.

Compatible with Play 2.3.

Installation

Add this line to your project's plugins.sbt file:

addSbtPlugin("com.github.dwickern" % "sbt-bower" % "1.0.3")

Bower only runs in Node, so add this line to your build.sbt file:

JsEngineKeys.engineType := JsEngineKeys.EngineType.Node

SBT doesn't support npm dependencies for plugins, so you have to include bower in your project. Create a package.json in the root of the project:

{
  "devDependencies": {
    "bower": "~1.3"
  }
}

Configuration

Create a bower.json file with your dependencies.

By default, dependencies are copied to public/components. To customize the output directory:

target in bower := baseDirectory.value / "some" / "other" / "path"
