Installation

To get the latest stable release from PyPi

$ pip install jack-bower

Add bower to your INSTALLED_APPS

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...,
    'bower',
)

Usage

Use ./manage.py bower_init <app_name> to bootstrap an app with a bower.json. Add your dependencies to it:

{
    "dependencies": {
        "backbone": "1.0.0",
        "underscore": "1.4.4"
    }
}

Then just run ./manage.py bower_install and it'll install all the dependencies in all the INSTALLED_APPS apps that has a bower.json. Add a .bowerrc file in your project root to control where packages are installed.
