bowerzipper

Node app that generates a .zip for a particular bower install. The backend (zipper.bowerarchiver.appspot.com) runs on Google Compute Engine as managed VM. The frontend (bowerarchiver.appspot.com) runs on Google App Engine.

Admin on Google Cloud Engine

The cloud console page is at https://console.developers.google.com/project/apps~bowerarchiver/compute/instances. From here, you can ssh into machines, manage the VMs, and project settings.

Updating the zipper on Google Cloud Engine

1. Install the code from github

    git clone https://github.com/PolymerLabs/bowerzipper
   

2. Make your changes.

3. Deploy the frontend and/or backend using:

    gcloud preview app deploy frontend/ --project bowerarchiver
    gcloud preview app deploy zipper/ --project bowerarchiver
    # gcloud --verbosity debug preview app deploy zipper/ --server preview.appengine.google.com
   

Try it!

The frontend allows you to download components: bowerarchiver.appspot.com.

You should be able to hit the endpoint and download stuff. You can also pass params directly to interact with the web service:

• Single component takes the form <name>=<org>/<name>:

  http://bowerarchiver.appspot.com/archive?core-ajax=Polymer/core-ajax

• Multiple components are separated by &:

  http://bowerarchiver.appspot.com/archive?core-ajax=Polymer/core-ajax&core-field=Polymer/core-field

• By default, the zipper tool will fetch the latest release of a component. You can specify a particular tag using: <name>=<org>/<name>%23<VERSION>:

  http://bowerarchiver.appspot.com/archive?core-ajax=Polymer/core-ajax%23^0.8
