The @function Tag

The @function tag allows you to force JsDoc Toolkit to document an object as if it were a function, even though it may not appear to be one to the parser.

Syntax

@function

Example

/**
 * @function
 */
var paginate = paginateFactory(pages);

Without the @function tag, the paginate object would be documented as generic object, because it isn't possible to tell from examining the line of code what type of value paginate will hold when it is run.
