Support bower components' "main" attribute in bower.json #13

Closed dfischer1 closed 10 years ago

dfischer1 commented 10 years ago

Support for bower components is currently based on a "sources" attribute, which is pretty rare in bower components. On the other hand, the bower specification almost enforces the existence of a "main" attribute that lists the main distrib files of the component. Why not use this attribute instead (similarly to https://github.com/yatskevich/grunt-bower-task)?

I agree, that would be a nice feature indeed. I'm open for taking pull requests since I currently don't have the time to work on this project.

Bower has been deprecated in the latest release 0.3.7 in favor of other Grunt plugins. See for example grunt-bower-install which should work fine next to grunt-include-source (but to be honest, I haven't tested it, but I don't see a reason why it shouldn't work).
