Build Metadata

#

dest-dir string

The directory to put the rendered book in. By default this is book/ in the book's root directory. This can be overridden with the --dest-dir CLI option.


        
#build-meta(

        
  dest-dir: "../dist",

        
)

        
#build-meta(

        
  dest-dir: "../dist",

        
)

When you set it to ../dist, shiroa will output the rendered book to parent/to/book.typ/../../dist or calculated parent/dist.
