Bower, brunch, sourcemaps and debugging

I have a bower/brunch project that looks like this:

myproject
    assets
       index.html
    app
       models
       views
       ...
       config.coffee
       config-local.coffee

       application.coffee
    public

       javascripts
           app.js
           app.js.map

       index.html
....


All of the CoffeeScript code from myproject/app is compiled into a single app.js file in the public/javascripts directory. It has a corresponding sourcemap file that looks like this:

{
  "version":3,
  "file":"public/javascripts/app.js",
  "sources":["app/application.coffee","app/config-local.coffee","app/config.coffee"
....


It's served from the http://localhost/, i.e. app.js has an url http://localhost/javascripts/app.js

Is there a way to use IDEA's debugger with this source code structure? I can patch the generated sourcemaps if required, but changing the project structure is not really feasible.

Hello!

try making the paths in your map either absolute or relative to your .map file, like:

{
  "version":3,
  "file":"app.js",
  "sources":["../../app/application.coffee","
../../
app/config-local.coffee","
../../
app/config.coffee" ....


and make sure to add the //# sourceMappingURL comment to your app.js file - does this help?
