How is one supposed to get it?
I tried the "Download manually from github", but there is a `bat` file that expects a `jar` to be present, but nowhere a `jar` to download. *confused*

<https://github.com/pinterest/ktlint/releases>

And then? As I said, there is a bat script that expects a jar, but no jar.

Ah, now I understand what you mean. I think we have never uploaded the jar separately since the `ktlint.bat` was added. You can download it directly from maven: <https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.pinterest.ktlint/ktlint-cli/1.0.1>

I have now added the jar also to the release page of ktlint. You might need to rename it.

I will fix this in next release: <https://github.com/pinterest/ktlint/issues/2402>

Thanks, that jar is not helpful though, as it misses the dependencies like Kotlin. You either need to build a bad-practice fat jar for example using the `shadow` plugin, a good-practice far jar like Spring Boot projects do, or build a proper distribution for example using the `application` plugin.

the `ktlint` file is basically a fat jar. Can you try to use that instead? <https://pinterest.github.io/ktlint/latest/install/cli/#microsoft-windows-users>

Yeah, that works, thanks, I'll try with that later, don't have time right now

Lol, the `ktlint` is indeed a fat jar. On MacOS, I can just run `java -jar ~/bin/ktlint-1.0.1`. Can you please verify whether that works on Windows as well so that I can fix `ktlint.bat`?

Btw, thanks for all the issues on the plugin. Most of them are already implemented/fixed. I will release a new (beta) version today

Yes, it indeed also works to use that polyglot file like that.

You're welcome. I owed you some more constructive feedback. :smile:

Nice, thanks will try it.
Btw. the date of the release seems a bit off.
GitHub thinks it was released 2023-11-08

And I also cannot install it it seems :confused:

It says it did so, but after the restart still beta 4 is installed

Even uninstalling beta 4, restarting, and then installing beta 5 says beta 4 is installed. o_O
Maybe some wrong artifact got uploaded?
