First of all you'll need to write a parser, second you'll need to look
into duchain and generate the declarations/uses for your code. Once
api.kde.org is back you can look into extragear/sdk and go to the
kdevplatform/language library. 

And just to make this clear: This is the only way and its not exactly
easy, you'll have to spend some time learning the framework and looking
at other language plugins to fully understand how things work (there's
php, css and some preliminary support for xml in playground).
