Parsing files not commented in luadocs [message #1276635]

I am working on a codebase that has been documented using metatags different from luadocs. I am considering the possibility of modifying LDT's source code to deal with this. Where would I get started from? I cannot find a high level architectural description of the source code, basically I am wondering if there is a centralised bit of code somewhere that parses the source code, and if so where is it?

Thanks a lot for any suggestions and for releasing a great tool!

Maybe this should be simple to create a tool which will be able to translate your documentation language in Luadocumentor language.

But if you want to modify LDT, you could have a look to this post:
http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/631824/

In your case, you should principally have a look to the comment parser "ldparser" :
http://git.eclipse.org/c/koneki/org.eclipse.koneki.ldt.git/tree/libraries/modelsbuilder/models/ldparser.lua
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Koneki/LDT/Developer_Area/Lua_Comment_Model

and the apimodelbuilder which use ldparser result to create the model of the api of a module :
http://git.eclipse.org/c/koneki/org.eclipse.koneki.ldt.git/tree/libraries/modelsbuilder/models/apimodel.lua
http://git.eclipse.org/c/koneki/org.eclipse.koneki.ldt.git/tree/libraries/modelsbuilder/models/apimodelbuilder.lua
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Koneki/LDT/Developer_Area/Lua_API_Model_2
