 [aster-generate](https://github.com/asterjs/aster-generate)/[escodegen](https://github.com/Constellation/escodegen) code generation options.
 
+#### options.generator
+
+Allows customizing generator to be used. By default [aster-generate](https://github.com/asterjs/aster-generate) is used, passing `options` to create the `Observable` factory function.
+
+
+
+#### options.destinator
+
+Allows customization of the destinator function. By default the following is used. Note that `options.generate` will be the `generator` Obserable factory function (see `options.generator` above)
+
+```js
+function defaultDestinator(options) {
+    return function (files) {
+        files = options.generate(files);
+
+        return files
+            .flatMap(function (file) {
+                // ...
+            }
+            .flatMap(function (file) {
+                return writeFile(file.path, file.contents);
+            })
+            .zip(files, function (result, file) { return file });
+    }
+}
+```
+
+This customization can be useful if you want to write to a destination that is not the file system, such as a database or simply to `console.log` for debugging, for testing etc.
