Installing Jacket with Bower and Compass 0.13-alpha

[lmartins]

Sorry, this might be a dumb question, i've installed Jacket with bower, so i got the folder:

components/jacket/**

I've tried to install the plugin using the following on my config.rb file:

require "components/jacket/";

When i try to compile i get:

LoadError on line 31 of /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb: no such file to load -- components/jacket/

Could you provide any help?

It looks like the answer is ad-hoc extensions, documented here. Set the extensions_dir property in the config.rb to the Bower components directory, and we're good to go.

Except unfortunately it's broken right now: Compass/compass#1200. I'll update the readme until that issue is resolved. Let me know if you find any workarounds.

Just tried with "Compass 0.13.alpha.4" and in fact it's broken.
I'll install it as a gem and wait to Compass to solve the ad-hoc extension engine.

Thanks.

Everything is working for me in 0.12.2. Expanded the Bower installation instructions and added notes about 0.13.alpha in the readme. Let's leave this open until the Compass issue is closed.
