Anno

A parser for embedded annotations of functions and modules

Anno parses DocBlocks, ignores any regular comment, and returns an object containing the parsed annotations.

Installation

npm install anno --save-dev

Usage

/**
 * This function does something.
 * @hello world
 * @valueless
 */
function doSomething () {
  console.log('Did something.');
}

var result = anno(fs.readFileSync('test.js', 'utf8'));
  console.log(result);
});

    "valueless": true
  }
