LESS @plugin Debugging (node)

Does anyone know how to debug a less plugin when using node to compile? So that I would be able to see the value of console.log() within custom less functions.

I am also using gulp-less. I have tried to run the gulp this way:

node --inspect --debug-brk /usr/local/bin/gulp compilecss

This ran the gulp task but I don't see any console from within the function inside the javascript @plugin.

The above mentioned method worked, the issue was that the plugin wasn't set up correctly. For those who were in my shoes this is what worked:

Follow the instructions on this answer for getting the inspector in the gulp task. enter link description here

Then if your plugin is installed you should see logs in the console from the less custom plugin or it's functions.
