FutureTransformer

abstract class FutureTransformer[-A, +B] extends AnyRef

An alternative interface for performing Future transformations; that is, converting a Future[A] to a Future[B]. This interface is designed to be friendly to Java users since it does not require creating many small Function objects. It is used in conjunction with transformedBy.

You must override one of {map, flatMap}. If you override both map and flatMap, flatMap takes precedence. If you fail to override one of {map, flatMap}, an AbstractMethodError will be thrown at Runtime.

Note: to end a result with a failure, we encourage you to use either flatMap or rescue and return a failed Future, instead of throwing an exception. A failed future can be used by returning Future.exception(throwable) instead of throwing an exception.

Future.transform which is the equivalent Scala API for further details.

Future.transformedBy for using it with a Future.

FutureEventListener for a Java API for side-effects.
