Getting error during 'ember install:bower <anything>'

[tsabolov]

After installing package javascript-audio-fx using ember install:bower I am not able to install any other packages. Keep getting an error 'Invalid version: *'.

That package has no version specification in its .bower.json so I've got "javascript-audio-fx": "*" in my bower.json. I think there must be a check around such cases.

Shouldn't it just be

bower install

?

[tsabolov]

I guess that ember install:bower ... uses its own local bower. That's the only difference from my POV. I just want devs to know about the problem.

Yes, ember install:bower uses it's own local version. Does running bower install by itself work?

and @wayne-o the way going forward should be to use the install:bower, install:npm, and install:addon commands. The bower and npm ones do the same thing as bower install and npm install with a few options added and they use the local version rather than the global. These commands were added in 0.1.5

[tsabolov]

@jakecraige thanks for your answer. Yes, bower install works on itself. Even more ./node_modules/ember-cli/node_modules/.bin/bower install works well too.

will be fixed with: quaertym/ember-cli-dependency-checker#22

Will be fixed in master when #3363 gets merged.

@tsabolov this should be fixed now, can you try updating ember-cli-dependency-checker in your package.json to match 0.0.8 and try again?

[stefanpenner]

thanks @quaertym

[tsabolov]

@abuiles, I confirm that with the updated ember-cli-dependency-checker everything works as expected. Thank you.

@quaertym, @stefanpenner thank you.
