Added the initial parser that just looks for (defmethod parse 'x ...)
lines in cljs.analyzer
. No docs yet since they don't exist in code yet, just Type and Source info for the cljsdoc files.
Perfect timing to be working on this though. ClojureScript just added var
support so we can pull metadata/docs for a given var. And a doc
function was built to print docs for vars. Macros and Special-forms are not supported yet.

Clojure had clojure.repl/special-doc-map
for printing docmaps of special forms. So as soon as something like that is added to cljs for the doc
function to use, I'll upgrade the parser to use those in our cljsdocs.
After Chris was asking about the
ns
form, I found the special forms were present only in the analyzer here:https://github.com/clojure/clojurescript/blob/r2411/src/clj/cljs/analyzer.clj#L413-L414
disregarding the asterisk and uncommon forms, we have:
if
def
do
throw
try
recur
set!
ns
so we definitely need docs for these. Would be nice to show this as source code too. Not really valuable for people who are using it, but would at least help encourage few devs who want to contribute to the language.
