Cowork / integrate / piggyback with builders/dependency managers! (eg bower, jam, yeoman, brunch) #17

Open anodynos opened 11 years ago

anodynos commented 11 years ago

uRequire currently works only on command line and through grunt-urequire. It read its own uRequire.config (still in alpha) and will also utilize RequireJS's own format.

We should be able to take advantage of other dependency managers & app builders.

So we need to check / cowork / integrate / piggyback with others : for example bower, brunch.io, yeoman.io, jam, npm's package.json, requirejs.packages etc.

Do you know any other dependency/package/bundle managers you think we should examine ?

I’d want to help you integrating this with brunch. Really like the idea. Actually I started integrating this on my own before I saw the issue.

The problem is that urequire lacks docs on how to use it from node.js. There are just command line docs.

Hi Paul,

I am so glad you want to integrate with brunch .

I m also very sorry for my delayed getting back to you, I was very busy.

Unfortunately version 0.3alpha is not stable enough and documented yet, but good news is I m going to uRequire some time during the next few weeks and I it'll take a more stable shape + I ll write up some initial docs for your integration endeavor.

So bare with me and watch this space the following few weeks.
