Interface BeanFinder<T>

public interface BeanFinder<T>

Used to override the finding implementation for a bean.

For beans that are not in a JDBC data source you can implement this handle bean finding. For example, read a log file building each entry as a bean and returning that.

There are a number of internal BeanFinders in Ebean to return meta data from Ebean at runtime such as query execution statistics etc. See the beans in com.avaje.ebean.meta and finders in com.avaje.ebean.server.meta.

Find a bean using its id or unique predicate.
