# SpEL Function
This module provides a SpEL function that can be reused and composed in other applications.
The function can be used to apply SpEL transformations on data based on a SpEL expression.
## Beans for injection
The `SpelFunctionConfiguration` auto-configuration provides the following bean:
`spelFunction`
You can use `spelFunction` as a qualifier when injecting.
Once injected, you can use the `apply` method of the `Function` to invoke it and get the result.
## Configuration Options
All configuration properties are prefixed with `spel`.
