New side project- WebAPI To CLI–part 1

I have had an idea; What if the WebAPI application can be called from the console application itself  ?

This will permit just having the DI running  – and all the stuff that WebAPI can work with when calling a controller.

Will be good in a CI / CD workflow – testing the full API instead of relying to test just the dll ( Yes,I know about skinny controllers )

And will be good in Jenkins / any other tool / in order to execute directly the WebAPI instead of recurring to curl / powershell

So – seems to have a good piece of software to start – how we do this ?

First,how all the commands should be passed ? If we pass via command line,there is pretty much possible for someone to miss things.

Second,if the user does not pass via command line,the WebAPI should work as usual.

So,5 days and 88 commits later,this is the result: https://github.com/ignatandrei/webAPI2CLI/ .

It has the documentation about how to install and use it. Enjoy !
