Gulp doesn't create folder?
Solution 1
I don't fully understand the paths you're src
-ing (public/bower_components
?), but I believe you'll want to use the base
option for gulp.src
.
Because these two globs will have different bases, I'd suggest breaking it into two separate tasks, and building a third to aggregate them into a single. Otherwise you'll need to get into merging streams or the addSrc
plugin.
gulp.task('copy:fonts:bootstrap', function () {
return gulp.src(
[
'public/bower_components/bootstrap/dist/fonts/**/*'
],
{
base: 'public/bower_components/bootstrap/dist/fonts'
}
)
.pipe(gulp.dest('dist/public/fonts'));
});
gulp.task('copy:fonts:fontawesome', function () {
return gulp.src(
[
'public/bower_components/font-awesome/fonts/**/*'
],
{
base: 'public/bower_components/font-awesome/fonts'
}
)
.pipe(gulp.dest('dist/public/fonts'));
});
gulp.task('copy:fonts', ['copy:fonts:bootstrap', 'copy:fonts:fontawesome']);
Solution 2
According to this article, specify your src like this:
gulp.src(['src/js/**/*.js'], { base: 'src' })
.pipe(foo())
.pipe(gulp.dest("./public/"));
and it will auto create the destination directories for you. In this case, the 'js' folder will be created in public if it doesnt exist already.

When I minified my css, I was left with an incorrect path to the fonts from various libraries. So, I created a task to move the fonts from my
bower_components/
folder todist/public/fonts
:gulp.task('doit', function() { gulp.src(["public/bower_components/bootstrap/dist/fonts/*", "public/bower_components/font-awesome/fonts/*"]) .pipe(gulp.dest("dist/public/fonts")); });
Basically that should throw any fonts I need into a generic fonts folder, which my minified css should now be able to access.
But after I run it,
dist/public/fonts
doesn't exist. Why not? -
