Or as dependency in your app asset bundle :

namespace app\assets;
use yii\web\AssetBundle;
class AppAsset extends AssetBundle
{
    public $basePath = '@webroot';
    public $baseUrl = '@web';
    public $css = [
        'css/site.css',
    ];
    public $js = [
    ];
    public $depends = [
        'yii\web\YiiAsset',
        'yidas\yii\bootstrap\BootstrapAsset'
    ];
}

CDN Asset Mode

You could switch Asset to use CDN distribution by configuring config file:

'components' => [
    'assetManager' => [
        'bundles' => [
            'yidas\yii\bootstrap\BootstrapAsset' => [
                'cdn' => true,
                // 'cdnVersion' => '4.1.3',
            ],
        ],
    ],
],

Specify a CDN source

You could also specify CDN source you like:

'assetManager' => [
    'bundles' => [
        'yidas\yii\fontawesome\FontawesomeAsset' => [
            'cdn' => true,
            'cdnCSS' => ['https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.1.3/css/bootstrap.min.css'],
            'cdnJS' => ['https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.1.3/js/bootstrap.min.js'],
        ],
    ],
],

jQuery Dependency

This Bootstrap extension required jQuery Javascript library, you could set yii\web\JqueryAsset in $depends, or simplly depends a asset included your own jQuery JS file whether is CDN or not.

    public $depends = [
        //'yii\web\JqueryAsset',
        'yidas\yii\jquery\JqueryAsset',
        'yidas\yii\bootstrap\BootstrapAsset'
    ];

Another way, you could easliy enable jquery dependency by setting jquery property form BootstrapAsset:

'components' => [
    'assetManager' => [
        'bundles' => [
            'yidas\yii\bootstrap\BootstrapAsset' => [
                'jquery' => true,
                // 'cdn' => true,
            ],
            'yidas\yii\jquery\JqueryAsset' => [
                // 'cdn' => true,
            ],
        ],
    ],   
],
