Any plans for JS ES6 support?

[tofagerl]

Specifically support for class methods would be appreciated.

FYI: Version 0.8.0 adds support for ES2015 arrow functions

I took all ES2015 features that affect docblockr from this ES2015 feature list:

• [x] arrows functions
• [x] Classes ( #267)
  • [x] new constructor syntax (#201)
• [ ] enhanced object literals
  • [x] Shorthand method definitions (#205, #169)
  • [ ] dynamic property names
• [ ] destructuring (#180)
• [ ] rest operator in function params
• [x] default parameter
• [x] let + const
• [x] generators (#36)
• [x] modules
  • [x] autocomplete for exported objects

+1 Hello. I copied the pattern from java and included in the file /lib/languages/javascript.js This could be useful:

    var classMethodRegex = xregexp(
        // Method name
        '(?P<name1>' + this.settings.fnIdentifier + ')\\s*' +
        // Params
        '\\((?P<args>.*?)\\)\\s*' +
        // # Throws ,
        '(?:throws\\s*(?P<throwed>[a-zA-Z_$0-9\\.,\\s]*))?'
        );

Then

    var matches = functionMatches || arrowFunctionMatches || classMethodMatches;

And voila. But i'm sure there is a better way to achieve this.

Since most of the people commenting here seem to be most interested in support for shorthand method definitions: version v0.9.2 now supports this (again).

Just upgrade it .. It will work like a charm . My current version is 0.11.0 .
