This task is designed for gulp 3+.

## Install

```sh
$ npm install --save-dev gulp-bower
```

## Usage

Install packages into the `bower_components` directory from `bower.json` dependencies:

```javascript
var gulp = require('gulp');
var bower = require('gulp-bower');

gulp.task('bower', function() {
  return bower();
});
```

### Examples

* To install packages into a custom directory, pass the `directory` option:

```javascript
var gulp = require('gulp');
var bower = require('gulp-bower');

gulp.task('bower', function() {
  return bower({ directory: './vendor' })
});
```

* To set the current working directory, pass the `cwd` option:

```javascript
var gulp = require('gulp');
var bower = require('gulp-bower');

gulp.task('bower', function() {
  return bower({ directory: './vendor', cwd: './client' })
});
```

* By default gulp-bower runs 'install' command for Bower. Using cmd property, you can specify the custom command (e.g. update):

```javascript
var gulp = require('gulp');
var bower = require('gulp-bower');

gulp.task('bower', function() {
  return bower({ cmd: 'update' });
});
```
