Run IntelliJ code formatter from the command line


I am trying to run IntelliJ code formatter from command line.

I know that inspections can be run from CLI, however, they didn't provide the same for the source formatting (lame!).

Now, I started with CE edition of IntelliJ. Source code is on github.

However, since the code base is not small, I am having problems encapsulating the formatter.

Is there anyone who can point me in right direction and showing which classes to start with?
