Having trouble installing angular#1.4.0-rc.0 via bower - when I run:
bower install --save angular#1.4.0-rc.0
I get the error
no matches found: angular#1.4.0-rc.0
However running bower update angular shows packages that depend on 1.4.0-rc.0:
angular-cookies#1.4.0-rc.0 depends on angular#1.4.0-rc.0 which resolved to angular#1.4.0-rc.0
Adding "angular": "~1.4.0-rc.0" or "angular": "1.4.0-rc.0" doesn't help either!
Thanks guys!
delete your previous bower_components folder or your custom location.
Thanks to #nitin, deleting my bower_components folder and reinstalling did the trick.

How can I fix the following problem?
aaa#aaa $ bower install bower.json
bower bower.json#* cached git://github.com/Kalitte/app-states.git#0.6.9
bower bower.json#* validate 0.6.9 against git://github.com/Kalitte/app-states.git#*
bower webcomponentsjs#~0.5.4 cached git://github.com/Polymer/webcomponentsjs.git#0.5.5
bower webcomponentsjs#~0.5.4 validate 0.5.5 against git://github.com/Polymer/webcomponentsjs.git#~0.5.4
bower ENOTFOUND Package App States=bower.json not found
bower ENOTFOUND Package App States=bower.json
not found
I don't know how or at what point this happened, but it happened to me and if you look inside your bower_components folder there maybe a folder called App States. I deleted this folder and I was able to do an install.
You have your bower config in bower.json file, right? You don't give the file as argument, it messes like you show.
So, type in the folder that holds the bower.json file only
bower install
That command will find the bower.json for you automatically.
In my case, the bower had created "App States" folder and after deleting the folder the error got resolved.
After deleting the folder: execute
bower install --allow-root
This should fix the issue.
I'd like to use the angular-ui filters package and I'd like to install it through bower. I've run bower install --save angular-ui which installs it and inserts it into the bower.json file.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to actually import the files into the project. I've already got ui.bootstrap in there, I can't find any instructions to install the filters part.
I've seen issues where the folder already exists in bower_components and so bower assumes that its already there and doesn't add the files.
bower uninstall angular-ui
check that the angular-ui folder isn't in bower-components and if it is then delete it.
bower install angular-ui --save
First time user of npm and bower. I am able to install packages correctly but I am not sure how the dependencies work? As an example, I did "npm install angularjs" in my application root which created a folder "node_modules/angularjs/" with some files in it. I can also see that there is a package.json file within the angularjs folder, and it looks like it has not been processed as there is numerous packages listed in it and not installed.
Long story short, should I install all these packages manually or is there a built in feature that npm/bower can also process these sets of dependencies?
UPDATE:
I greatly lack the ability to ask precise questions, I apologise to those who have answered and did not give the correct sypnosis.
What I expect to happen:
Using npm or bower, I want to clarify that if I do an install of one of their packages, will it automatically also install the new package's dependancies or would I need to do a npm/bower install for each of the packages.json or bower.json files manually?
What I did to try make it work:
Created folder D:\Websites\TestSite
Within the folder through CMD, I did a "npm init" and ran through the guide
I followed that up with a "npm install angularjs"
A new folder was created D:\Websites\TestSite\node_modules\angularjs and within this folder there was a "index.js" and package.json file
Opening index.js I get a "require("angular");" and module.exports = window.angular.
The package.json file contains a number of dependancies which has not been installed.
My Result:
As per my expectations, npm install in point 3 above did not install the dependancies of the package.json file after it installed angularjs.
I am not sure but I assume that the index.js file needs to be included in my html and that it required the requirejs library initiated? If this is the case, then requirejs (which I do not have installed on my site) should be a dependancy for angularjs to work, and should be installed prior to giving me the ability to try and initiate it?
Am I missing a step or misunderstanding the functionality of NPM/Bower? Thank you for your patience!
Npm and Bower are great tools for managing your dependencies, i'll try to make it clear in a few words.
In general npm is used for managing your back-end dependencies and Bower is responsible for your front end dependencies.
There are 2 config files:
package.json, here are listed your dependencies that are not used in browser(e.g. bower, grunt). To install all dependencies in package.json run npm install.
Bower.json, here will be listed your "in browser" dependencies(e.g angular, jQuery). Run bower install to install all dependencies listed here in bower_components
You can find a extended guide i wrote here.
I am trying to install videogular using bower and I am getting the error:
bower ENOTFOUND Package videogular not found
Should I install in manually?
We've been deleted this week the bower package to create a new one, sorry about this, we will try to have it again running very soon (probably this weekend).
Meanwhile you can download it manually through this repo: https://github.com/2fdevs/bower-videogular
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
