Stamping 'depends' into package.json / nested dependencies

[Rafael B]

Is there a way to stamp 'depends' into the package.json, somehow declaring nested dependencies ?

For example:

{

  "amd": {},

  "volo": {

    "baseDir": "media/js/libs/",

    "dependencies": {

      "jquery.flexslider": "github:woothemes/FlexSlider/master#./jquery.flexslider.js",

      "jquery.prettyphoto": "github:scaron/prettyphoto/master#js/jquery.prettyPhoto.js",

      "jquery.quicksand": "github:razorjack/quicksand/v1.3"

    }

  }

}

I'd like to be able to simply run: volo add

But currently I must run: volo add depends=jquery

But what happens if not all of my dependencies depend on jQuery ?

Is there a way to declare nested dependencies ?

Sorry for the very long delay in a response:

This is handled by creating amd.json files in the "overrides" repo for volojs:

https://github.com/volojs/repos

Example for documentcloud/backbone:

https://github.com/volojs/repos/blob/master/documentcloud/backbone/amd.json

So if you do some pull requests to volojs/repos for the above
owner/repo combinations and specify an amd.json for those repos, you
will then fix it for any volo user.

Thanks! 

Can this technique work with jquery-ui ? 

I've tried your "jqueryui-amd" tool, but my application's package.json has an "amd: {}" property in its package.json. So when running "jqueryui-amd", the jqueryui js files will end up with a double `define()` ...
