To be sure everything that we know works together we use things like npm-shrinkwrap files. We don't like it because it makes the git changelogs a lot bigger and almost unreadable if you want to compare a pull request.
We use bower and npm for our project. Every couple of months github is under attack by a DDoS or not working correctly leaving us with broken deploy scripts. What is the best way to fix this? We don't like the idea of commiting the node_modules or bower_components folder. Is there a tool which will cache the npm and bower sources so they only have to be downloaded if something changes?
Hello,
I wrote a script called node-eyefi. https://github.com/komola/node-eyefi it is an alternative to the windows client and acts as the server. We are currently rewriting it in coffeescript.
After a download is complete it can call a custom script.
I use Jing to do just this. It works on Windows and Mac and next to Screenshots also allows to capture up to 5 Minutes of Screencast at a time. Then I have the save location set to the Public Dropbox folder and the link is automatically put into my clipboard.
