javascript - Using Gulp Zip to zip all the files in a folder -

i using gulp-zip zip source files. have main folder called fifa has other sub folders might have more sub folders , files. in additon fifa folder has files package.json, gulp.js , other files. want use gulp-zip zip entire project , create folder called distribution , save zip inside it. code used.

gulp.task('zip', function () {     return gulp.src('./*,')         .pipe(zip('test.zip'))         .pipe(gulp.dest('./distribution')); }); 

the issue although zip created inside distribution folder zip contains files inside fifa folder, files inside subfolders of fifa not there. instance if fifa has subfolder called ronaldo , ronaldo contains goal.js goal.js not in zip. have done wrong? please advice.

try 2 *

gulp.task('zip', function () {     return gulp.src('./**')         .pipe(zip('test.zip'))         .pipe(gulp.dest('./distribution')); });

what's difference between * , **?

one star means files, no folders - stars more deep , include folders inside specified folder.

and instance if wanted 2 stars include folders except 1 specific folder , possible also?

you can use exclamation mark !./excludeddir, pass src array !... 1 of values
