Bower about photon HOT 19 OPEN

People still use Bower?

from photon.

@developit FYI, you can already install Photon via npm by using its repository url:

npm install https://github.com/connors/photon

from photon.

Or it could be published as photonkit.

+1 about keep the same name across and using photonkit, now used only on site, is possible registry the package on bower and npm...

from photon.

@sbruchmann I agree, people should not spam with +1's. But it's like slapping a child for doing something wrong: the child does not know what it did wrong, you have to explain. On the other hand, I understand that you don't want to add another comment just to say that.

@gligoran I apologize if that's the case. The reason I mentioned you was because you downvoted two or three other comments talking about Bower.

I'm currently using #37 (comment) suggestion, but it would be nice if it was registered as an NPM/Bower package of course (preferably both).

If wanted, I'll even provide a bower.json file.

from photon.

I was going to suggest NPM since it's already available there, no need to take offence.

+1

@sbruchmann indeed, or even npm i connors/photon :). It's a pity the photon name is already taken in NPM though :(

from photon.

What about namespaced? npm i @connors/photon

from photon.

@knownasilya yeah, that'd work (as long as nobody is trying to install with npm older than 2.x).

from photon.

In that case, it might be worth mentioning the version of npm required.

from photon.

^ nice, that would actually address #36, too ;)

from photon.

I accidentally installed the other photon package with npm and was really confused at first. Figured out how to add this one with the git url though. Publishing it on npm (and possibly bower), even under a slightly different name, would be cool. :)

from photon.

👍 for npm support... i know it's easy to use github url, but i think being at npm main repo it would also help the project popularity...

from photon.

photonkit is a nice name

from photon.

indeed, keep the same name across is good, github, npm, site...

from photon.

To @sbruchmann and @gligoran: what is your problem? You can provide a bower.json along with a published package.json. I am not sure why you are actively downvoting people wanting Bower support.

from photon.

@pedzed I wasn’t voting against bower but against the +1-statement of @frankhale since GitHub now supports reactions to comments.

from photon.

@pedzed Wasn't actually downvoting people for wanting bower support, but the manner in which @a3bhea commented. This is supposed to be a place where people work together, so no need to be condescending.
