		.pipe(/* knock yourself out */)
		.pipe(zip.dest('out.zip'));

var zip = require('gulp-vinyl-zip');

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

var gulp = require('gulp');
var zip = require('gulp-vinyl-zip');

gulp.task('default', function () {
	return gulp.src('src/**/*')
		.pipe(/* knock yourself out */)
		.pipe(zip.dest('out.zip'));
});

File System → Archive Stream → Disk

var gulp = require('gulp');
var zip = require('gulp-vinyl-zip').zip; // zip transform only

gulp.task('default', function () {
	return gulp.src('src/**/*')
		.pipe(/* knock yourself out */)
		.pipe(zip('out.zip'))
		.pipe(/* knock your zip out */)
		.pipe(gulp.dest('./'));
