How to run build.dart in WebStorm?

I can't figure out how to run the build.dart (or any other dart) file in WebStorm.

The only option to run dart files seems to be DartUnit, but I think that is only for running tests.

I need to run the build.dart to create the WebUI Template output files.

It would also be great to be able to automatically run build.dart whenever a file changes (like the Dart Editor does).

Thank you

OK, thanks to LazyOne's hint I was able to dig a bit deeper.

The solution to this is to create a File Watcher in WebStorm with the following options:

Scope: Project Files
Program: [your path to]\dart-sdk\bin\dart.exe
Arguments: build.dart
Working Directory: $ProjectFileDir$

This will run the build.dart every time a file in your project changes, pretty much exactly like the Dart Editor.
