Webstorm 8 - Debug Yeoman Generator
I am trying to figure out how to debug a yeoman generator from withint webstorm
My intial attempt was to add a empty generator framework as a node boiler plate project and then set the debug configuration as follows, when it's run it connects and then does nothing, since yo is an interactive command line program I am thinking it's waiting for input but i have no idea how to use it in that manner and get debugging.
Of course I may compeltely be on the wrong track, any input?

You have to install yo locally to your project folder (npm install you), set breakpoints there, and use your local cli.js as a javascript file in your Run configuration. It works for me - debugger stops on breakpoint. But then, indeed, the debugging can't proceed as yo is waiting for input, and debugger console doesn't allow it (http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-11324)
Yeah I got that far, but as you say there is no real way to debug the generator under test since we can't interact with it.
Is this a scheduled fix or just one of those things I will have to manually debug ( console out ) for the forseeable future
