Note: I don't use and maintain this package anymore. ES support has evolved and I'm now using Unitiversal Ctags (https://ctags.io) for my development requirements.

es-ctags

CTags generator built/for ES6 using tern. The goal of this tool is to replicate the same CLI of the original CTags as close as possible. This should enable ESCtags usage with tools like CtrlP, TagBar and many others.

Origin

This software is derived/inspired from jsctags. The source code to convert tern ast to tags is mostly the same.

install

npm install -g es-ctags
