I want to customize ngx-material-timepicker node module by changing basic html and css of the project. But no html, css files are available in the node_modules-> ngx-material-timepicker folder only ts files are there.
So I forked it to my github repo and then after customizing it, I tried installing it to my angular project by using npm install mygitrepo.git --save but after this i cannot include the module to my angular project.
In a default npm install, the registry is set to https://registry.npmjs.org/. This is where npm will download packages from when you run npm install .
You can Modify the value of the repo location to a custom repo with the command npm set registry . After resetting the registry, npm will only fetch packages from instead.
But you may not want to change the registry entirely. You can also use a organization specific scope to place your packages to be fetched.

I am working on a AngularJS project that uses bower as package manager and gulp to inject the dependencies into the index.html file. I am not very familiar with both of these tools.
I now want to use AWS AppSync, but it is not available as a bower package.
Currently the AWS SDK is specified as a file dependency in bower.json as:
"aws-sdk": "./thirdparty/script/aws-sdk-2.69.0.min.js",
When I install aws-appsync with npm npm install aws-appsync the node_modules folder for aws-appsync contains multiple js files in the lib directory.
How can I include these with bower or is there another way to do this altogether?
I am currently unable to change much of the build and dependency management process so any suggestions working with the current tools would be much appreciated.
Thanks for reaching out!
The Bower team itself has recommended that people migrate to npm or yarn, and so aws-appsync has not been pushed to Bower.
It might be worth investigating whether you can install directly from github using something like...
bower install <github url>.git
... and install directly from the appsync-sdk github repo.
In the end I hacked together an interim solution until I can move the whole project over to npm and browserify.
I added the aws-appsync package using npm and required it in a new file. This file is then passed through a gulp task that uses the browserify plugin. The added file is then included into the rest of the build process as before.
I am starting out angular app with angular-fullstack in my Windows 7 box. I installed bunch of npm packages with -g options, including grunt-bower-install. I created the application first by running
yo angular-fullstack appname
There were no exception during the application creation. After application was created successfully I tried to run the app using
grunt serve
expecting the server to run. But the 'grunt serve' failed with
Running "bower-install:app" (bower-install) task
Cannot find where you keep your Bower packages.
We tried looking for a .bowerrc file, but couldn't find a custom
directory property defined. We then tried bower_components, but
it looks like that doesn't exist either. As a last resort, we tried
the pre-1.0 components directory, but that also couldn't be found.
Unfortunately, we can't proceed without knowing where the Bower
packages you have installed are.
Fatal error: No Bower components found.
I did find .bowerrc file and it was pointing to app/bower_components. Unfortunately, bower_components file was no where to be found. I am not sure what should be the content of the file to create it myself. Is it the missing file causing this problem or is there a npm package, I did not install correctly?
I installed bower using npm as well *
Thanks
Confusingly, the grunt-bower-install task that comes with angular-fullstack doesn't install bower components. It doesn't install anything. This error is trying to let you know that it can't find the bower_components directly, so it can't do its thing.
To fix the issue, run bower install.
If you don't have Bower installed, run npm install -g bower first.
I had the same issue, here's what worked in my case:
installed ruby and compass (yeoman needs these)
verified that path to Ruby bin folder is added to %PATH%
installed Git
restarted cmd window and ran "bower install" in the app folder
After that, grunt serve command worked perfectly.
Note: maybe installing Git and running bower install would suffice in your case.
I faced the same problem but only did npm install -g bower and then bower install and got grunt serve working.
I did not need to do any of the things mentioned by Olga.
Hope this helps.
npm install -g bower doesn't install bower components, you should run as well bower install to have all bower's components installed and then run grunt serve. It should work fine
Try to do bower install. If its failing saying not able to connect to git then you can change repo pointing location by simply running below command
$ git config --global url.https://github.com/.insteadOf git://github.com/
This will ensure that you will be downloaded over https instead of git if its causing orginasation firewall to block it.
In my case, I added sudo for it to work. So, I ran sudo npm install -g bowerand then bower install. grunt serve then worked when I ran it.
The Bower installation requires the packages to be brought from the Git repository, so first you need to install the Git application in your system. You can download it from this link :https://git-scm.com/downloads . Now after your have downloaded it , there may be a chance that the PATH may not be set up, so go to ControlPanel -> System and Security -> System -> Advance System Settings (on the left-hand side), click it, then goto Environment Variables -> System Variables -> PATH , click edit , and write down the following paths :
;C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Git\bin;
C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Git\cmd ....Well the above path is where Git was installed in my system, you can crawl to the place in your system where Git was installed and select the paths from the "bin" and "cmd" folder and paste it on the PATH variable.
Now, after the GIT path is setup, you can now type in the command " $ bower install " , this will install all of your bower packages.
npm install -g bower
bower install
grunt serve
worked for me ...
npm install -g bower
bower install
grunt serve
It's worked too
I have installed AngularJS using bower, by calling:
$ bower install angular-latest
Now I wonder how to integrate AngularJS into my html file. Apparently, there is neither an angular[.min].js file nor an index.js file as suggested by the bower documentation.
I can't imagine that I am the first person on earth to discover this problem, but unfortunately I did not find any clues on this on Google (but perhaps I only used the wrong terms for searching).
Any idea of how to include AngularJS?
Okay, I found the solution:
$ bower install angular
And everything is fine ...
What you installed with
$ bower install angular-latest
was only the latest source code. You need to actually build AngularJS.
First, you need to install all of the following dependencies if you haven't already:
Git
Node.js
Java
Grunt
Bower
Second, change into the angular.js directory.
Then, install node.js dependencies and bower components:
$ npm install
$ bower install
Finally, you're ready to build your package:
$ grunt package
In the resulting build directory, you'll find
angular.js — The non-minified angular script
angular.min.js — The minified angular script
When I run yeoman install handlebars I get the following output:
Running "bower:install:handlebars" (bower) task
bower cloning git://github.com/components/handlebars.js
bower cached git://github.com/components/handlebars.js
bower fetching handlebars
It doesn't copy handlebars to the current project's plugins or vendors directory. It exits without an error message. Is this the right behaviour?
To me it seemed like a bug so I've created an issue on yeoman's github page. But I'm not sure.
To resolve this issue here's what I did. I realized yeoman did not install bower for me and it depends on bower for installing libraries. So, to resolve this issue - install bower manually like this: npm install bower -g
