Create plantuml images in another output folder

Hey,

I'm invoking asciidoctor with the -o option so we can redirect our output file.
Right before invoking asciidoctor, a script copies the images folder next to the output file.
This way, the images generated by plantuml are not copied, because they are generated in the original images folder after we already copied those images.

I could just use copy the images after running asciidoctor, but then the plantuml images/cache files are "polluting" my original images folder.

Is it possible to directly create the plantuml files in the destination images folder?
I as trying to use the -D option in the command line.
But when debugging (when asciidoctor-diagram is creating the images), this does not add extra document attributes.

The -a outdir="new/images/dir" option seems to do the trick, although we need to patch asciidoctor-diagram so it takes into account the outdir document attribute.

Is this the correct approach?

neher.
