interface EntityFormBuilderInterface {
/**
* Gets the built and processed entity form for the given entity.
*
* The form may also be retrieved from the cache if the form was built in a
* previous page load. The form is then passed on for processing, validation,
* and submission if there is proper input.
*
* @param \Drupal\Core\Entity\EntityInterface $entity
* The entity to be created or edited.
* @param string $operation
* (optional) The operation identifying the form variation to be returned.
* Defaults to 'default'. This is typically used in routing:
* @code
* _entity_form: node.book_outline
* @endcode
* where "book_outline" is the value of $operation. The class name for the
* form for each operation (edit, delete, etc.) can be found in the form
* section of the handlers entity annotation. For example:
* @code
* handlers = {
* "form" = {
* "delete" = "Drupal\node\Form\NodeDeleteForm",
* @endcode
* Alternatively, the form class can be set from hook_entity_type_build().
* @param array $form_state_additions
* (optional) An associative array used to build the current state of the
* form. Use this to pass additional information to the form, such as the
* langcode. Defaults to an empty array.
*
* @code
* $form_state_additions['langcode'] = $langcode;
* $form = \Drupal::service('entity.form_builder')->getForm($entity, 'default', $form_state_additions);
* @endcode
*
* @return array
* The processed form for the given entity and operation.
*
* @see \Drupal\Core\Form\FormBuilderInterface::getForm()
* @see \Drupal\Core\Entity\EntityTypeInterface::getFormClass()
* @see \Drupal\Core\Entity\EntityTypeInterface::setFormClass()
