Bower components not copied

[hillmark]

In order to get bower_components copied across I needed to change the path prefix from cwd: 'bower_components/bootstrap/dist/' to cwd: 'app/bower_components/bootstrap/dist/' for Bootstrap, for example.

To get JQuery and Bootstrap copied over I had to change the copy property in gruntfile.js to this:

copy: {
      jquery: {
        expand: true,
        cwd: 'vendor/jquery/dist/',
        src: '**',
        dest: '<%= config.dist %>/assets/js'
      },
      bootstrap: {
        expand: true,
        cwd: 'vendor/bootstrap/dist/',
        src: '**',
        dest: '<%= config.dist %>/assets/'
      },
      theme: {
        expand: true,
        cwd: 'src/assets/',
        src: '**',
        dest: '<%= config.dist %>/assets/css/'
      }
    },

Has anyone managed to get Wiredep and Usemin working with Assemble?

This would solve your problem of having to write a task for every bower component you install. Both plugins are used on the Official Yeoman project.

sorry for the late response on this. we'll get the variables fixed so everything works, unless someone wants to do a pr :)
