Provide CLI version
@aalmiray suggested the idea of a CLI version: https://twitter.com/aalmiray/status/1417549718419300358?s=20 Let's do it! Table output could be generated on the command line using one of the libraries mentioned on https://github.com/akullpp/awesome-java#cli
Adding to SDKMan will be taken up in a separate issue - let's get this done first.
That will be amazing! Basically, I'd like to try RefactorFirst with some projects, and using it via CLI will be so easy, because then I'll not need to change any dependency or start using maven (for example, if the project is managed via gradle, etc)
I can certainly craft a PR to get the base code in place however @jimbethancourt I'm afraid this will require some knowledge transfer for both Maven and PicoCLI. If it's OK with you I can work on a PR, set it as draft, then we review together (Zoom or other) til you're satisfied.
You're too kind to offer @aalmiray! I came across https://github.com/remkop/picocli/tree/master/picocli-spring-boot-starter -- I'm pretty familiar with Spring Boot and the Spring beans could be used in both the CLI and webapp versions (unless you think this won't make things easier and makes you wince 😆).
Oh goodie, yes, if you'd like to continue using PicoCLI + Spring then sure, let's go. I was thinking more into the particular setup for Maven modules, crafting a release likely using GitHub Actions, and other stuff.
FWIW here's a sample Spring Boot project (no PicoCLI at the moment) that shows the minimum settings for packaging as native executables (with GraalVM Native Image), generate all executables with GitHub Actions, and releasing with JReleaser

Should you want to keep the CLI as regular Java instead of native executable then I'll have to make asime adjustments 😉
Thank you @aalmiray! This is great! I was thinking of using the Spring Native plugin -- I've done some work with it before and I'm somewhat familiar with it. I'll give it a go soon 😄
Hello, I have created a draft pull request where I started to refactor the code, so reporting logic could be reused in maven/gradle plugins or CLI application. I did not change any behavior, just migrated some classes to a new module, and stripped away maven-core logic from classes that generate reports. It would be nice if you could review this code for now, so that I know I am on the right track before I continue making CLI application.
