Gulp-archiver2 NPM

gulp-archiver2

Archive anything through gulp. Based on gulp-archiver, with the added ability to use archives persistently across tasks.

Thanks to @Fobos for his work on the original gulp-archiver

Usage

let gulp = require('gulp');
let Archiver = require('gulp-archiver2');

gulp.task('default', function () {
  return gulp.src('src/**')
    .pipe(Archiver.create('archive.zip'))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('./dist'));
});

For persistent use across tasks

let gulp = require('gulp');
let Archiver = require('gulp-archiver2');
let archive = new Archiver("zip")


gulp.task("css", () => {
  return gulp.src("src/*.css")
    .pipe(archive.add()) //add to the root of the zip
})

gulp.task("lib", () => {
  return gulp.src("lib/**")
    .pipe(archive.add("lib/")) //add to lib/ folder inside zip
})

gulp.task("js", () => {
  return gulp.src("src/*.js")
    .pipe(archive.add()) 
})

gulp.task("img", () => {
  return gulp.src("media/**")
    .pipe(archive.add("resources/img/")) 
});

gulp.task("done", () => {
  return archive.close("out.zip")
    .pipe(gulp.dest("dist/"))
});

// Can handle files being added simultanously through parallel tasks
gulp.task('default', 
  gulp.series(
    gulp.parallel("lib", "css", "js", "img"), 
    "done"
  )
);

Plugin uses archiver npm package to make archive.
