For using gulp-include with laravel-elixir

laravel-elixir-gulp-include

//Currently I'm creating the processed coffee file in a temporary directory inside `resources/assets/coffee` for it to be picked up by `mix.coffee`
//And this task also doesn't work for js, scss or css, even though elixir does provide some native support for `@import`. 
//Alternative ways of integrate `gulp-include` with `laravel-elixir` is thus deeply appreciated.

elixir.extend('includeFiles', function(src, output) {

  var baseDir = this.preprocessors.baseDir + 'coffee/';

  src = this.buildGulpSrc(src, baseDir, '**/*.coffee');

  gulp.task('include', function() {
    return gulp.src(src)
      .pipe(include())
      .pipe(gulp.dest(output || 'resources/assets/coffee/processed'));
  });

  this.registerWatcher('include', baseDir + '/**/*');

  return this.queueTask('include');
});
