Not able to install some packages

[napsio]

There is a problem, when the bower name does not match the package name.

For example the package jQuery UI in the bower repository has the name jquery.ui (https://bower.herokuapp.com/packages/jquery.ui), but in the bower.json and package.json the name is jquery-ui. There is a huge number of packages with the same problem, for example chartjs (https://bower.herokuapp.com/packages/chartjs).

Other packages like highlightJS (https://bower.herokuapp.com/packages/highlight) coudn't be found at all, because the package.json is not in the root folder but in the src folder of the GitHub project (https://github.com/isagalaev/highlight.js).

What is error that have you?

[francoispluchino]

Ok, I just reproduce the behavior, I corrects the bug.

The error is:

Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

  Problem 1
    - The requested package bower-asset/jquery.ui could not be found in any vers
ion, there may be a typo in the package name.

[francoispluchino]

You will not find either the package with the commands show and search:

composer show bower-asset/jquery.ui

composer search bower-asset/jquery.ui

[napsio]

On the show command the result is:

[InvalidArgumentException]
Package bower-asset/jquery.ui not found

But if I try:

composer search jquery.ui

there is bower-asset/jquery.ui in the results.

I dumped the $composer variable in the GitHubDriver::getComposerInformation method. The result was:

)

So the right repository can be found, but it would be stored as jquery-ui in the packages collection insead of jquery.ui

[francoispluchino]

Problem found: in the file bower.json, the name of package is "jquery-ui" and not "jquery.ui" (https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui/blob/master/bower.json)

[francoispluchino]

I will avoid replacing the package name found in the file.

[napsio]

Yes, that's the problem, like I wrote in the first post.

[francoispluchino]

Sorry, I had mistranslated...

[napsio]

No problem :)

[francoispluchino]

Fixed (see d6aa913).
