bower入门

安装
安装bower需要先安装nodejs
安装命令 $ npm install -g bower

安装包
通过$ bower install [<options>]安装软件包，默认会安装到 bower_components/目录.
另外，可以通过配置文件bower.json一次安装所有软件包
通过$ bower init一路回车， 创建bower.json文件，bower.json内容如下

{
  "name": "bower-tuition",
  "authors": [
    "aoping <[e-mail]>"
  ],
  "description": "",
  "main": "",
  "license": "MIT",
  "homepage": "",
  "ignore": [
    "**/.*",
    "node_modules",
    "bower_components",
    "test",
    "tests"
  ]
}

添加

"dependencies": {
  }

到上述文件，如

{
  "name": "bower-tuition",
  "authors": [
    "aoping <[e-mail]>"
  ],
  "description": "",
  "main": "",
  "license": "MIT",
  "homepage": "",
  "ignore": [
    "**/.*",
    "node_modules",
    "bower_components",
    "test",
    "tests"
  ],
  "dependencies": {
    "bootstrap": "^3.3.7"
  }
}

执行bower install就可以下载dependencies里的软件包了
