Process lua files with rules

Configure the code transformation using a configuration file. If no configuration is passed, darklua will attempt to read `.darklua.json` or `darklua.json5` from the working directory.

Usage: darklua process [OPTIONS] <INPUT_PATH> <OUTPUT_PATH>

Arguments:
  <INPUT_PATH>
          Path to the lua file to process

  <OUTPUT_PATH>
          Where to output the result

Options:
  -c, --config <CONFIG>
          Choose a specific configuration file

  -v, --verbose...
          Sets verbosity level (can be specified multiple times)

      --format <FORMAT>
          Choose how Lua code is formatted ('dense', 'readable' or 'retain_lines'). This will override the format given by the configuration file

  -w, --watch
          Watch files and directories for changes and automatically re-run

  -h, --help
          Print help (see a summary with '-h')

  -V, --version
          Print version
