FormatterFunc (lib 2.40.0 API)

All Known Subinterfaces:

FormatterFunc.Closeable, FormatterFunc.NeedsFile

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
```
@FunctionalInterface
public interface FormatterFunc
```
A Function<String, String> which can throw an exception. Technically, there is also a File argument which gets passed around as well, but that is invisible to formatters. If you need the File, see FormatterFunc.NeedsFile.

Nested Class Summary

`static interface`	`FormatterFunc.Closeable`	`Function<String, String>` and `BiFunction<String, File, String>` whose implementation requires a resource which should be released when the function is no longer needed.

```
    Ideally, formatters don't need the underlying file. But in case they do, they should only use it's path, and should never read the content inside the file, because that breaks the Function<String, String> composition that Spotless is based on. For the rare case that you need access to the file, use this method or FormatterFunc.NeedsFile to create a FormatterFunc which needs the File.
