Control order of source files

Question

I\'m using Gulp and the main-bower-files to bundle my bower dependencies.

I need to ensure that jQuery is included before AngularJS, but since the Angular bower pack

Answer 1

I haven't used main-bower-files but one trick I can think of is to just include the jquery file directly and don't load it in the main bower files array, e.g.

var glob = ['/path/to/jquery.js'].concat(mainBowerFiles(['**/*.js', '!/path/to/jquery.js']));
var sources = gulp.src(glob);

Answer 2

You can override angulars dependencies in your project bower.json:

https://github.com/ck86/main-bower-files#overrides-options

{
    ...

    "overrides": {
        "angular": {
            "dependencies": {
                "jquery": "~1.8"
            }
        }
    }
}
