GulpJS copies folders and files from "foo" folder to "bar" folder and preserves the folder structure

I have a "foo" folder and "bar" folders, and I want to copy and run certain tasks in certain file files.

Problem: I can copy files, run tasks on them and keep the folder structure, but when I move files to the "bar" folder, it creates a "foo" folder inside the "bar" folder and stores all the copied files in it.

Tried it: tried to change base: '.'

to base: '../'

, but that just makes it compile everything to the parent folder bar

.

Folder structure:

.
├── foo
│   ├── app.js
│   ├── models
│   ├── public
│   │   ├── images
│   │   └── js
│   ├── routes
│   └── scss
├── bar
│   └── ...
└── gulpfile.js

      

        
        
        
      

    

Gulpjs.js file:

    'ssjs' : ['foo/app.js', 'foo/routes/*.js', 'foo/models/*.js'],

    'html' : ['foo/public/*.html'],
    'build' : 'bar',
    'public': 'public'
};

gulp.task('ssjs', function() {
    return gulp.src(paths.ssjs, {'base': '.'})
            .pipe(uglify({'preserveComments': 'some'}))
            .pipe(gulp.dest(paths.build));
});

gulp.task('csjs', function() {

    return gulp.src(paths.html, {'base': '.'})
            .pipe(htmlmin({'collapseWhitespace': true}))
            .pipe(gulp.dest(paths.build));
});

    gulp.watch(paths.ssjs, ['ssjs']);
    gulp.watch(paths.csjs, ['csjs']);
    gulp.watch(paths.scss, ['sass']);
});

gulp.task('default', [ 'ssjs', 'csjs', 'sass', 'html', 'watch' ]);
