Although Bower works great\nas a light-weight tool to quickly install browser dependencies, it currently does not provide much\nfunctionality for installing specific \"built\" components for the client.\n\n#Bower installs entire repositories\n\n```javascript\n{\n  \"name\" : \"test\",\n  \"version\": \"0.1\",\n  \"dependencies\" : {\n    \"backbone\" : \"latest\"\n  }\n}\n```\nIf `bower install` is run on this configuration file, the entire backbone repository will be pulled down\nand copied into a components directory. This repository is quite large, when probably only a built js and css\nfile are needed.  Bower conveniently provides the `bower list --paths` command to list the actual main files associated\nwith the components (if the component doesn't define a main, then the whole repository is listed instead).\n\n#Bower Installer\nBower installer provides an easy way for the main files to be installed or moved to one or more locations. Simply add to\nyour bower.json an `install` key and `path` attribute:\n\n```javascript\n{\n  \"name\" : \"test\",\n  \"version\": \"0.1\",\n  \"dependencies\" : {\n    \"backbone\" : \"latest\"\n  },\n  \"install\" : {\n    \"path\" : \"some/path\"\n  }\n}\n```\n\nInstall bower-installer by executing\n\n```bash\nnpm install -g bower-installer\n```\n\nFrom the terminal in the same directory as your bower.json file, enter:\n```bash\nbower-installer\n```\n\nAfter executing this, `backbone.js` will exist under `some/path` relative to the location of your\nbower.json file.\n\n#Overriding main files\nA lot of registered components for bower do not include bower.json configuration. Therefore, bower does not know\nabout any \"main files\" and therefore, by default bower-installer doesn't know about them either. Bower-installer\ncan override an existing main file path or provide a non-existant one:\n\n```javascript\n{\n  \"name\" : \"test\",\n  \"version\": \"0.1\",\n  \"dependencies\" : {\n    \"backbone\" : \"latest\",\n    \"requirejs\" : \"latest\"\n  },\n  \"install\" : {\n    \"path\" : \"some/path\",\n    \"sources\" : {\n      \"requirejs\" : \"components/requirejs/require.js\"\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\nIf bower installer is run on this configuration, `require.js` and `backbone.js` will all appear under\n`some/path` relative to your bower.json file.\n\n#Install multiple main files\nFor one reason or another you may want to install multiple files from a single component. You can do this by providing\nan `Array` instead of a `String` inside the sources hash:\n\n```javascript\n{\n  \"name\" : \"test\",\n  \"version\": \"0.1\",\n  \"dependencies\" : {\n    \"jquery-ui\" : \"latest\"\n  },\n  \"install\" : {\n    \"path\" : \"some/path\",\n    \"sources\" : {\n      \"jquery-ui\" : [\n        \"components/jquery-ui/ui/jquery-ui.custom.js\",\n        \"components/jquery-ui/themes/start/jquery-ui.css\"\n      ]\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n\n#Install files to multiple locations\nFiles can be installed to multiple locations based upon file type. Do so by modifying the `path` to be a map of file-type\n locations. Example:\n ```javascript\n{\n  \"name\" : \"test\",\n  \"version\": \"0.1\",\n  \"dependencies\" : {\n    \"jquery-ui\" : \"latest\"\n  },\n  \"install\" : {\n    \"path\" : {\n      \"css\": \"src/css\",\n      \"js\": \"src/js\"\n    },\n    \"sources\" : {\n      \"jquery-ui\" : [\n        \"components/jquery-ui/ui/jquery-ui.custom.js\",\n        \"components/jquery-ui/themes/start/jquery-ui.css\"\n      ]\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n",
