jupyter-sphinx generate a "jupyter_execute" folder

I run the following code to build my documentation:

sphinx-build -b html docs/source build

and in one of my file there is the following cell to execute:

.. jupyter-execute:: 

   import pygadm 

   gdf = pygadm.get_items(name="Singapore", content_level=1)
   gdf.plot(cmap = "viridis")

For a reason I can't explain building the documentation creates a jupyter_execute folder at the root of my lib. Am I missing a parameter or is it a bug ?
I would expect this to end-up in the build folder.

If an example is needed, you can find the example here: https://github.com/12rambau/pygadm

Thanks for reporting, I can confirm that this is a bug.

the error was coming from me. I stopped using the make html command from docs source but instead used sphinx-build -b html docs/source build from the repository root. As the outputdir is automatically deteted from your side it wasn't working:

jupyter-sphinx/jupyter_sphinx/utils.py

Line 91 in 1bb7d91

def output_directory(env):

Now that I run the more appropriate:

sphinx-build -b html docs/source docs/build/html

It works as expected.

Sorry for the noise
