Can't get gulp-jscs to write fixed files over originals

Question

No problems running the gulp-jscs plugin to analyze my code using the following task. However when I add fix:true, nothing changes in the files and JSCS now acts like it isn't running at all... when I remove the object passed into the JSCS plugin and remove the gulp.dest() line, it will report code style issues.

So, it seems either passing in the fix:true or tying to write back the fixed files causes JSCS to short circuit internally... ideas?

var $ = require('gulp-load-plugins')({lazy: true});
gulp.task('vet', function () {
  log('Analyzing source with JSHint and JSCS');

  return gulp
    .src(config.allJs, {base: './'})
    .pipe($.jshint())
    .pipe($.jshint.reporter('jshint-stylish', {verbose: true}))
    .pipe($.jscs({fix:true}))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('./'));
});

I have found a simpler/cleaner way to do, just specify the base parameter

gulp.src(files, {base: './'})

then file.name will contain the full path so you can output to the current directory

gulp.dest('.')

so at the end:

gulp.src(files, {base: './'})
    .pipe(jscs({fix: true}))
    .pipe(jscs.reporter())
    .pipe(jscs.reporter('fail'))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('.'))
    .on('error', console.error.bind(console));

I have been tackling this problem with this piece of code:

var gulp = require('gulp');
var jscs = require('gulp-jscs');
var foreach = require('gulp-foreach');
var rimraf = require('gulp-rimraf');

gulp.task('jscs', () => {
return gulp.src(['file1.js', 'file2.js'])
    .pipe(foreach((stream, file) => {
        return stream
            .pipe(jscs({ fix: true }))
            .pipe(jscs.reporter())
            //.pipe(jscs.reporter('fail'))
            .pipe(rimraf())
            .pipe(gulp.dest(file.base));
    }));
});

dependencies:

npm install --save-dev gulp gulp-rimraf gulp-foreach gulp-jscs

Globally, gulp-foreach iterates over every src with its own stream, rimraf delete the file before writing on vinyl.base destination.

Let me know if it helps.
