Docblock Parser
===============

[](#docblock-parser)

**DEPRECATED**: See  for a better solution.

Sub-standard docblock parser.

```
$docblock = (new DocblockFactory())->create('/** @var Foobar */');
$vars = $docblock->tags()->byName('var');

foreach ($vars as $var) {
    $var->type();
    $var->varName();
}
```

Why?
----

[](#why)

There is already a [standards-compliant library](https://github.com/phpDocumentor/ReflectionDocBlock) for PHP-Documentor, however it is coupled to the PHPDocumentor type reflection library. This library only cares about parsing docblocks badly for [Phpactor](https://github.com/phpactor/phpactor).
