You might want to look at the contrib/test_parser directory.  Then
again, you might not -- I needed some custom tsearch2 parsing
behavior and struggled with a custom parser based on that for a
couple days before I decided that it was easier to use regular
expression functions within pl/pgsql to pick out what I wanted and
cast it to a tsvector.  This was less code and seemed less fragile
than the developing soemthing based on the contrib example. YMMV, of
course.
 
This motivated me to put a rewrite of the current tsearch2 parser to
something based on regular expressions onto my personal PostgreSQL
TODO list.  (No guarantees on when I might get to it, though.)
