Intelligently parse and output TODOs and FIXMEs from comments in your files

Easily extract, collect and report TODOs and FIXMEs in your code. This project uses regex in order to extract your todos from comments.

TODO: add some info

• Spaces are optional.
• Colon is optional.
• Must be in a comment (line or block) in its' own line (some code(); //TODO: do something is not supported).
• Can be prefixed with a @ (i.e @TODO).
• Spaces are trimmed around comment text.
• Supported default types are TODO and FIXME - case insensitive.
• Additional types can be added (using tags in cli and customTags in leasot.parse)
• New extensions can be associated with bundled parsers as many languages have overlapping syntax
• Supports both leading and trailing references. Examples:
  • // TODO(tregusti): Make this better
  • // TODO: Text /tregusti

49+ languages are supported, pull requests for additional language support is most welcomed!
