This plugin only works with the old 0.10.x version of Component builder, and is no longer actively maintained. Personally I have leaned towards Browserify for simple setups and custom build scripts with component-watcher instead of Gulp. To use Component 1.x with Gulp check out gulp-component-builder or js-gulp-component-build.

Component builder plugin for gulp

Example usage using a Stylus build plugin and watching script and style changes separately:

var gulp      = require('gulp'),
    component = require('gulp-component'),
    stylus    = require('component-stylus-plugin')

gulp.task('scripts', function () {
    gulp.src('component.json')
        .pipe(component.scripts({
            standalone: true
        }))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('build/js'))
})

gulp.task('styles', function () {
    gulp.src('component.json')
        .pipe(component.styles({
            configure: function (builder) {
                builder.use(stylus)
            }
        }))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('build/css'))
})

gulp.task('watch', function () {
    gulp.watch(['component.json', 'src/**/*.js'], ['scripts'])
    gulp.watch(['component.json', 'src/**/*.styl'], ['styles'])
})

gulp.task('default', ['scripts', 'styles'])
