Clone this repo, rename it, remove git files. Install gulp and bower, and coffeegulp to easily run gulp tasks with gulp.coffee.

cd ~/my_projects
git clone [email protected]:s0ber/bower-template.git my_awesome_lib
cd my_awesome_lib
rm -rf .git

npm install -g gulp
npm install -g bower
npm install -g coffeegulp
npm install
bower install

Edit package.json and bower.json with required data.

Run specs in development mode (all file changes will be watched).

coffeegulp karma:dev

You can also sync your TravisCI account and turn on builds for your repo.

If you want to release a new version of your plugin, at first, edit associated package.json and bower.json files, then perform the following task.

coffeegulp release

It will at first run your specs. If they'll pass, concatenated compiled version of your source files will be created, and also minified one in build/ folder.

Modula is a very simple 15-lines packages manager. It helps you to get your code organised. It doesn't worth to make a library of it, because it's so straightforward. So, it's just included by default.

modula.exports('package_name', ReferenceToPackage)
modula.exports('package_name/file', ReferenceToPackageFile)

MyPackage = modula.require 'package_name'
MyPackageSourceFile = modula.require 'package_name/file'

You should list your source files in gulpfile.coffee, gulp will use them for building compiled version, and karma will use them for running specs.

Don't forget to edit LICENSE file before the release.
