Missing shrinkwrap for Bower.

Bower must be >= 1.5 (tested on Bower 1.7.7).

1. (within project directory) npm install bower-shrinkwrap-resolver --save-dev
2. Add bower-shrinkwrap-resolver resolver to .bowerrc, like so:

{
  "resolvers": [
    "bower-shrinkwrap-resolver"
  ]
}

That's it.

If bower is installed globally - bower-shrinkwrap-resolver have to npm i -g ... too. Otherwise you'll get Cannot find module 'bower-shrinkwrap-resolver'.

bower install (with or without parameters) will automatically generate (and update) bower-shrinkwrap.json.

CLI

• --no-shrinkwrap - ignore an available shrinkwrap file.
• --strict-shrinkwrap - fail if bower tries to install dependency that is missing in bower-shrinkwrap.json.
• --reset-shrinkwrap - regenerate bower-shrinkwrap.json (e.g. bower i --reset-shrinkwrap is equivalent to rm bower-shrinkwrap.json && bower i).

Debug logging can be turned with NODE_DEBUG=bower-shrinkwrap-resolver bower ....

You can turn off shrinkwrap generation by default by changing your .bowerrc to

{
  "resolvers": [
    "bower-shrinkwrap-resolver"
  ],
  "bower-shrinkwrap-resolver": {
    "shrinkwrap": false
  }
}

Adding --shrinkwrap after bower install will force shrinkwrap generation.

You can also set the value of strict-shrinkwrap (false by default).
