frontend-maven-plugin can't "bower install"


I have project with "web" module. In module I have "pom.xml" with frontend-maven-plugin:

<build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>com.github.eirslett</groupId>
                <artifactId>frontend-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>0.0.26</version>
                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <id>bower install</id>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>bower</goal>
                        </goals>
                        <phase>generate-sources</phase>
                        <configuration>
                            <arguments>install</arguments>
                            <installDirectory></installDirectory>
                        </configuration>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

Also in web module are .bowerrc file:

{
    "directory":"src/main/resources/static/bower_components"
}

And bower.json file:

{
  "name": "web",
  "ignore": [
    "**/.*",
    "node_modules",
    "bower_components",
    "test",
    "tests"
  ],
  "dependencies": {
    "jquery": "~2.1.4",
    "bootstrap": "~3.3.5"
  }
}

Also package.json file:

{
    "name": "web",
    "devDependencies": {
        "bower": "~1.6.5"
    },
    "engines": {
        "node": ">=0.10.40"
    }
}

When I try to "mvn clean install" the error appears:

Please help with this problem I lost a lot of time trying to solve the problem.


Solution

    1. Set your M3_HOME path to use "mvn clean install" without sudo
    2. Set 777 priveledges for "target" folders in project and other locked folders in web module
    3. In pom.xml file in web module add this:

                  <execution>
                      <id>install node and npm</id>
                      <goals>
                          <goal>install-node-and-npm</goal>
                      </goals>
                      <configuration>
                          <nodeVersion>v0.12.2</nodeVersion>
                          <npmVersion>2.7.6</npmVersion>
                      </configuration>
                  </execution>
      
                  <execution>
                      <id>npm install</id>
                      <goals>
                          <goal>npm</goal>
                      </goals>
                      <!-- Optional configuration which provides for running any npm command -->
                      <configuration>
                          <arguments>install</arguments>
                      </configuration>
                  </execution>
      
                  <execution>
                      <id>bower install</id>
                      <goals>
                          <goal>bower</goal>
                      </goals>
                      <configuration>
                          <arguments>install</arguments>
                      </configuration>
                  </execution>
