Can you find the line numbers that a tag is on?

[tucker-m]

I'm trying to make an automated modification to some code comments in a large repo. Specifically, I need to capture some multi-line comments (which are already being parsed with yard) and replace them with something else.

Is there a way for yard to tell me which commented line numbers a tag spans across? For example, if I have a YARD::Tags::Tag object, #<YARD::Tags::Tag @tag_name="API", @text="JWTs", @name=nil, @types=nil, @object=#<yardoc class JwtsController>>, can I get the line where the @text "JWTs" is?

On a related note, the parser gem does not seem to parse comments. Is there a different tool for parsing @tags in ruby comments?

Thanks!

*edit: Turns out that the parser gem can parse comments, but treats them all as single lines of plain strings. It's not aware of @tags.
