A little helper which makes incremental path generation a cinch

gulpfile.js

// Helper to simplify incremental generation and storage of paths
var Path = function Path(_path) {
  this.value = _path;
};

Path.prototype = {
  'toString': function() {
    return this.value;
  },
  'join': function() {
    var args = Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 0);
    args.unshift(this.value);
    return new Path(path.join.apply(null, args));
  }
};


// Example usage:
var paths = new Path(__dirname);
paths.static = paths.join('moodlog/static');
paths.css = paths.static.join('css');
paths.js = paths.static.join('js');
paths.font = paths.static.join('font');
paths.img = paths.static.join('img');

paths.sass = paths.static.join('sass');
paths.sass.pattern = paths.sass.join('*.scss');


gulp.task('styles', function() {
  gulp.src(paths.sass.pattern.value)
      .pipe(sourcemaps.init())
        .pipe(sass({outputStyle: 'compressed'}))
        .pipe(minifycss())
        .pipe(rename({suffix: '.min'}))
      .pipe(sourcemaps.write('/', {includeContent: false}))
      .pipe(gulp.dest(paths.css.value));
});
