Using “npm install” to install jquery-ui

问题:

I see from here https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui that jquery-ui's latest release is 1.11.4. However, when I use "npm install jquery-ui", it's only 1.10.3. I checked this version in node_modules/jquery-ui/jquery-ui.js.

Is there any way for me to install the latest version?

回答1:

jQuery-ui specifically needs to be build after installation. To avoid this, use npm install jquery-ui-dist

T J gave the right answer, but it is a bit short / too generic...

The GitHub project is at https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui/
So the real command would be npm install github:jquery/jquery-ui (you can even skip github: as npm defaults to it).
But this would bring you the latest, unstable version (around 1.12 at time of writing), and it didn't even work when I tried.
So it is better to fetch a tagged version:

npm install github:jquery/jquery-ui#1.11.4

Generic note: AFAIK, if the project hasn't a package.json file, this kind of install can still fail.

Here is the current latest version (1.11.4), same package that bower is using, including all themes.

npm install github:components/jqueryui#1.11.4

You can install it like

npm install github:mygithubuser/myproject

as mentioned in the install documentation
