How can I use DoctorJS with Emacs?

Question

Is there a way to use DoctorJS (apparently it used to be called jsctags) to generate a TAGS file for Emacs?

I've been looking around and it seems to always use the vi tags style, but I could be missing something very obvious.

Answer 1

Please try this fork, which does support the -e option: https://github.com/berenddeboer/doctorjs

Answer 2

It claims to be compatible with ctags, in which case it hopefully accepts the same -e command-line option that tells ctags to run in etags mode, to generate TAGS for Emacs.

jsctags -h should display the available options, according to the github readme file.

Answer 3

doctorjs does not appear to output emacs style tags. It does not accept the -e option.

Probably it would not be that difficult to add emacs tag support, as both emacs and vim tag files are a very simple format.
