gulp-svg2z is not maintained and there is likely no reason you should be using it anyway.

gulp-svg2z

Gzip SVG vector graphics files with Gulp

Will pass-through any non-svg files unaltered so you can use in conjuction with other image optimzation tools if you don't want a separate task for different file formats.

Install

$ npm install --save-dev gulp-svg2z

Usage

var gulp = require('gulp'),
    svg2z = require('gulp-svg2z');
 
gulp.task('default', function() {
 
    gulp.src('src/img/*')
        .pipe(svg2z())
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dest/img'));
});

Options

Options are passed directly to zlib. Details can be found here.

Only default is compression level set to max. {level: 9}

Extra Credit

For extra (very small) savings on file size, use in conjuction with gulp-svgo (or any other svgo optimization). If every byte counts, this is an easy way to up the savings, but be aware that this probably wont make a huge impact on your compression.

Example

var gulp = require('gulp'),
    svgo = require('gulp-svgo'),
    svg2z = require('gulp-svg2z');
 
gulp.task('default', function() {
 
    gulp.src('src/img/*')
        .pipe(svgo())
        .pipe(svg2z())
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dest/img'));
});
