Hello,

I am developing a data processing package. This package contains [plotting functionalities](https://github.com/henry2004y/Vlasiator.jl/blob/master/src/plot/pyplot.jl) from PyPlot.jl, but I don’t want to include that as an explicit dependency, so I choose to use [Requires.jl](https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/Requires.jl) to accomplish the goal. The package import happens in the [main source file](https://github.com/henry2004y/Vlasiator.jl/blob/master/src/Vlasiator.jl). This works decent except for the documentation. As can be seen [here](https://henry2004y.github.io/Vlasiator.jl/dev/internal/#Plotter), there is no documentation for the plotting functions. Either If I don’t specify anything, or if I use the `Pages` tag, it’s all empty.

What is the right way to display the documentation here?

It’s probably sufficient if you add `PyPlot` as a dependency to `docs/Project.toml` and also load it in `docs/make.jl`.
