Source

All Known Implementing Classes:

Source.InputStreamSource, Source.PathSource, Source.ResourceSource, Source.StdInSource, Source.URLSource
```
public interface Source
```
Interface representing a source of data that can be read.
This interface provides a unified way to access data from different sources, such as files, URLs, or standard input. It abstracts away the details of how the data is accessed, allowing commands to work with different types of input sources in a consistent way.
