install via npm

[indeyets]

Currently, angular-bootstrap is installable via bower and nuget. Would be great to register package in registry at https://npmjs.org/ to let it be installed via npm install angular-ui-bootstrap

@indeyets well, sounds like a reasonable request, but we are already struggling a bit to get all the repos synchronized... Darn, there are way to many package formats / package managers for JavaScript....

What we could quickly do for now is to add package.json to the https://github.com/angular-ui/bootstrap-bower repo and publish npm package from those files.

@indeyets would you be up to opening a pull request?
@ajoslin something to take into account while working on the build-related items.

@pkozlowski-opensource well… this repository has https://github.com/angular-ui/bootstrap/blob/master/package.json already. wouldn't it work?

[pkozlowski-opensource]

Nope, since it doesn't have build results

[dotnetwise]

Angular is now on NPM please add this as well

Indeed it would be great.
NPM is really slow sometimes but it can be locally and easily mirrored which increases a lot the install performances. As bower is damn slow too but cannot be mirrored ... people are turning back to the initial NPM usage instead of bower's. I personnaly left bower for this reason, and I think I am not the only one. That is why I think it is more relevant to maintain an NPM registry, instead of a bower's one.

But it is just my opinion.

What about this PR : angular-ui/bootstrap-bower#36 ?

[msieurtoph]

An alternative workaround :
https://npmjs.org/package/napa (using a git repo that has no package.json)
