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 DataSource<T>
extends Stringify

A source of data, either a Generator or a Template.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
default FlDataSource<T>	fluentData() Provides access to the fluent data source interface.
Generator<T>	toGenerator() Returns a generator for this data.
static <T> Generator<T>[]	toGenerators(DataSource<T>... sources) Converts an array of data sources into generators by calling toGenerator() on each.
static <T> Generator<T>[]	toGenerators(DataSource<T> first, DataSource<T>... more) Converts data sources into generators by calling toGenerator() on each.
