Flatten glob down to one directory

Question

Within Gulp, I am using gulp.src to select every font file from a directory:

gulp.task(\'copy-fonts\', function() {
   gulp.src(\'components/**/         


        

Answer 1

I would use gulp-flatten:

var flatten = require('gulp-flatten');
gulp.task('copy-fonts', function() {
  gulp.src('dependencies/**/*.{ttf,woff,eof,svg}')
  .pipe(flatten())
 .pipe(gulp.dest('build/fonts'));
});

As to how this is done internally, check: https://github.com/armed/gulp-flatten/blob/master/index.js
