WebStorm karma config problems #481

I noticed that the final config of karma is generated in gulp and there is no easy way getting it without the changing the gulp files (as far as I know). I was thinking that there should be a way to kind of keep everything in a karma config.

For example there is other yo generator (https://github.com/johnpapa/generator-hottowel) for angular from creator who maintains the famous angular style guide (https://github.com/johnpapa/angular-styleguide). The generator tries to follow angular style guide he wrote:

This is how his generated karma config looks:

module.exports = function(config) {
    var gulpConfig = require('./gulp.config')();

    config.set({
        // base path that will be used to resolve all patterns (eg. files, exclude)
        basePath: './',

        // frameworks to use
        // some available frameworks: https://npmjs.org/browse/keyword/karma-adapter
        frameworks: ['mocha', 'chai', 'sinon', 'chai-sinon'],

        // list of files / patterns to load in the browser
        files: gulpConfig.karma.files,

        // list of files to exclude
        exclude: gulpConfig.karma.exclude,

        proxies: {
            '/': 'http://localhost:8888/'
        },

        // preprocess matching files before serving them to the browser
        // available preprocessors: https://npmjs.org/browse/keyword/karma-preprocessor
        preprocessors: gulpConfig.karma.preprocessors,

        // test results reporter to use
        // possible values: 'dots', 'progress', 'coverage'
        // available reporters: https://npmjs.org/browse/keyword/karma-reporter
        reporters: ['progress', 'coverage'],

        coverageReporter: {
            dir: gulpConfig.karma.coverage.dir,
            reporters: gulpConfig.karma.coverage.reporters
        },

        // web server port
        port: 9876,

        // enable / disable colors in the output (reporters and logs)
        colors: true,

        // level of logging
        // possible values: config.LOG_DISABLE || config.LOG_ERROR ||
        // config.LOG_WARN || config.LOG_INFO || config.LOG_DEBUG
        logLevel: config.LOG_INFO,

        // enable / disable watching file and executing tests whenever any file changes
        autoWatch: true,

        // start these browsers
        // available browser launchers: https://npmjs.org/browse/keyword/karma-launcher
        //        browsers: ['Chrome', 'ChromeCanary', 'FirefoxAurora', 'Safari', 'PhantomJS'],
        browsers: ['PhantomJS'],

        // Continuous Integration mode
        // if true, Karma captures browsers, runs the tests and exits
        singleRun: false
    });
};

So by doing this way it might be more flexible and it should work with WebStorm karma runner. Or maybe someone know how to start WebStorm with current karma setup ?
