It's a cool library, you think you'll ever add Bower support? #6

Hey there.

Been using this library on a side project of mine. It's great, but I wonder, would you ever offer Bower support for it?

I've been avoiding digging into all the npm / bower / grunt stuff, but I need to stop procrastinating. I wonder if bower is appropriate (vs npm) since there are no html / css / resource components to manage...

I'll try and get familiar with all this stuff (this reference seems like a good starting point) and make some moves on this.

And do let me know if I can check out your side project!

Great stuff. I've been using Gibberish in quite a basic way, but I liked how it worked and how complex it could be. I had a project where I needed to make a rock solid metronome in pure JavaScript for a client. I ended up using Gibberish as it supported all the platforms I needed and was really, really rock solid with it's timing. I liked how I could easily change the "bleep" to be just right too. So it was very successful! ...the only thing it lacked for me was having Bower support so I could avoid having it inside the repository and just install it like all my other dependencies.

So Gibberish is now properly modularized and has its own npm repo:

https://www.npmjs.org/package/gibberish-dsp

I'm wondering if you can simply use the git repo in your bower.json file... I'm not excited about maintaining versioning across both npm and bower. Here's what I'm talking about for reference:

Let me know if this isn't what you need... I haven't used bower yet so this stuff is a little hazy to me.

PS - if you have a link you can share to the metronome I'd love to check it out! I released a metronome in the Apple App Store a few years ago and am interested in such things...

OK, haven't heard anything so closing.
