Gulp: Splitting Files Into Separate Locations

I'd like to separate my JavaScript files from my Coffee-Script files!

This is my current file structure:

engine
  world
    behaviour.coffee
    behaviour.js
  character
    behaviour.coffee
    behaviour.js
  engine.coffee
  engine.js

This is the structure I would prefer:

src
  engine
    world
      behaviour.coffee
    character
      behaviour.coffee
    engine.coffee

and:

dest
  engine
    world
      behaviour.js
    character
      behaviour.js
    engine.js

my actual gulp file looks like this:

gulp = require 'gulp'
coffee = require 'gulp-coffee'

gulp.task 'all-coffee-files', ->
  gulp.src './**/*.coffee'
  .pipe coffee()
  .pipe gulp.dest (file) ->
    file.base

gulp.task 'watch', ->
  gulp.watch './**/*.coffee', ['all-coffee-files']

What edits do I have to make in order to achieve this splitting?

Thank you very much!

Not really familiar with coffescript syntax, but the following should work:

gulp = require 'gulp'
coffee = require 'gulp-coffee'

gulp.task 'all-coffee-files', ->
  gulp.src './src/**/*.coffee'
  .pipe coffee()
  .pipe gulp.dest('./dest/')

gulp.task 'watch', ->
  gulp.watch './src/**/*.coffee', ['all-coffee-files']

This sources everything in ./src/ and places the resulting .js files in ./dest/, while keeping the directory structure intact.
