I have a conventional plugin for single module projects which works fine so far. Now comes multi-module.. according to the readme, this should suffice

tasks {
    dokkaHtmlMultiModule.configure {
        outputDirectory.set(buildDir.resolve("dokkaCustomMultiModuleOutput"))
    }
}

but it doesnt, dir doesnt exist what am I missing? Edit: I simply had to manually execute it.. it's not automatic as the usual per-module dokka documentation

@elect Can you explain what you mean by manually execute? Is this a different command to execute other than

./gradle dokkaXXX

?

no, sorry, on my one-module project the docs were kicked in automatically because I was requiring the jar in the artifacts (I guess). In my multi-module this is not the case so I have to manually execute it as you write
