SVG or PNG being generated, but not moved to the "source" folder.

[GAS85]

Hello,

I do use your plugin and seems my diagrams generated and saved in a "out" folder. Unfortunately I can't find them in the mkdocs output folder. My config.

theme:
  # The string name of a known installed theme
  name: 'material'

# The directory where the output HTML and other files are created
site_dir: source

plugins:
  # built-in MkDocs search plugin
  - search
  # helps building plantuml images
  - build_plantuml:
      render: "local"
      bin_path: "/usr/bin/plantuml"
      output_format: "svg"
      diagram_root: "docs/diagrams"
      output_folder: "out"
      input_folder: "src"

My input folders:

Do you have any advice why out from input folder (docs) is not moved to the output folder source?

[christo-ph]

Hi,

1. do you have any logs, which might lead you to the problem?
2. Have you checked, that "diagram_root: "docs/diagrams" # should reside under docs_dir"
3. Have you tried to first setup the example in this project to verify that this is working?

I have never encountered this issue before, so I need your input.

[GAS85]

Hey, to the 1st.

mkdocs build
INFO    -  Cleaning site directory 
INFO    -  Building documentation to directory: /builds/georgiy.sitnikov/My_TMP/source 
WARNING -  Documentation file 'catalog/System.md' contains a link to 'catalog/system_quick_overview.svg' which is not found in the documentation files. 
INFO    -  Documentation built in 5.09 seconds

To the 2nd. Yes, it is:

and docs directory in config is

docs_dir: 'docs'

To the 3d: My own example looks like this in docu:

<img src="diagrams/out/system_quick_overview.svg" title="System API management quick Overview" usemap="#workmap" height="782" width="455">

Output for your example is (for catalog/test.md):

$ mkdocs build

You can see that in output folder source only puml files presented, but in docs generated SVGs :(

[christo-ph]

I am unable to reproduce this behaviour.

I have just created an example project, set the site_dir to source and can find all files inside, also the created SVGs

[GAS85]

Hmmm. I'm using material theme, have no idea if this is relevant. In any way will simply add mv command to pipeline. Also will try to disable plug-ins one by one. E.g. There is also https://github.com/mikitex70/plantuml-markdown enabled.

[christo-ph]

Any news on this?

[GAS85]

I found that enabling of monorepo plugin will cause this problem. As soon I'm using it to bring few repos togerther, I simply link Picture directly from the internal PlantUML Server for now.

@GAS85 your comment helped me a lot, I spent about an hour or saw debugging this - had no clue
