Research direction

Reproduce the reported setup using app.js, the .bowerrc configuration, bower.json, and the Gulp/Browserify bundle command. Confirm whether the installed package can be resolved under client/ and define done as a successful require and browser bundle without the reported module-not-found error.

Description

I have installed through bower

$ bower install bootstrap-daterangepicker --save-dev

In my app.js, I try to include it with

var rangePicker = require('bootstrap3-daterangepicker');

Please not that the bower_components is into the folder ./client/ but I have a .bowerrc file with

{
"cwd": "client"
}

The bower.json of this library as all the required attributes. (see :
https://github.com/dangrossman/bootstrap-daterangepicker/blob/master/bower.json )

Gulp is in charge to do the browserify bundle for me, but I can't make it work, I always got this error :

[18:06:53] Browserify Error { [Error: Cannot find module 'bootstrap3-daterangepicker' from ...

Any suggestion on how to debug this ?
