Configuring a CLI Client
Explore how to develop a CLI client for FTP service interactions using gRPC in Java. Gain hands-on experience setting up the Maven project, managing dependencies, and abstracting RPC calls for user-friendly command execution.
We'll cover the following...

We could call the add and delete file methods directly in the ftp-service-client but this is an exercise to show how things are done in an enterprise environment. The purpose of creating this CLI client is to create an abstraction of the ftp-service-client. ...
