How do i zip a directory? about gulp-zip

[djmittens]

That does not answer my question, because if you execute that code the file when extracted will extract into the current directory and not make a new one. I want to be able to name a directory after the zip

for instance

unzip tremor.zip should produce a directory named tremor and not unpack all the files into the cwd

You can use gulp-rename to add a "parent" directory:

gulp.src(your_files)
    .pipe(
      rename(
        function(path) {
          path.dirname = 'parent-diretory/' + path.dirname;
        }
      )
    )
    .pipe(zip('your-zip-file.zip'))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('.'));
