Debug Meteor with Atom and customize Meteor's access to MongoDB

I've just updated my Atom.io's plugin Meteor Helper with 2 new features: debug mode and custom Mongo URL.

For debugging your Meteor's server side app, just set the Debug flag, launch a Node-Inspector and open your Chrome navigator on the URL provided by Node-Inspector. Basically, it covers the Step 2 of the Meteorpedia article on debugging.
