[enhancement] Add missing bower.json. #1219

Hey, maintainer(s) of mootools/mootools-more!

We at VersionEye are working hard to keep up the quality of the bower's registry.

We just finished our initial analysis of the quality of the Bower.io registry:

7530 - registered packages, 224 of them doesnt exists anymore;

We analysed 7306 existing packages and 1070 of them don't have bower.json on the master branch ( that's where a Bower client pulls a data ).

Sadly, your library mootools/mootools-more is one of them.

Can you spare 15 minutes to help us to make Bower better?

Just add a new file bower.json and change attributes.

{
  "name": "mootools/mootools-more",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "main": "path/to/main.css",
  "description": "please add it",
  "license": "Eclipse",
  "ignore": [
    ".jshintrc",
    "**/*.txt"
  ],
  "dependencies": {
    "<dependency_name>": "<semantic_version>",
    "<dependency_name>": "<Local_folder>",
    "<dependency_name>": "<package>"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "<test-framework-name>": "<version>"
  }
}

Read more about bower.json on the official spefication and nodejs semver library has great examples of proper versioning.

NB! Please validate your bower.json with jsonlint before commiting your updates.

Thank you!

mootools-more is not suitable for distribution via bower as its intended as a modular / customisable build repository.

the reality is, hardly anyone ever uses the whole lot. there is no dist folder and no pre-made builds shipped with the repo, just raw sources, which would be pretty useless in raw format as dropped by bower.

we can either do a dist/ with all mootools-more modules and declare that as the main, adding all else to ignore - or we can just unregister the repo completely. if anyone is using bower to do their custom -more builds, they can post here/complain of breakage.

on a side note, what is versioneye's affiliation with bower.io?
