Writing docs for macro methods

thanks its a good solution.

Thanks. That makes sense.

The pattern used by Ecto in such libraries is to define documented callbacks, so you would do something like:

defmodule Paginator do
  @moduledoc """
  paginator
  """  
  defmacro __using__(options) do
    quote location: :keep do
      import Ecto.Query

      @behaviour unquote(__MODULE__)

      @options unquote(options)

      def paginate(query, params) do
      end
    end
  end

  @doc """
  Apply limit and offset to the query if not provided and return meta.
  """
  @callback paginate(query :: Ecto.Queryable.t(), params :: keyword()) :: Ecto.Queryable.t() 
end

@leaf the Paginator does not actually contain the function paginate. A module that did use Paginator would have that function, but the Paginator module does not, so there’s nothing to document.
