## Interface Module.SetupContext

- Enclosing class:
    Module

      public static interface Module.SetupContext

  Interface Jackson exposes to modules for purpose of registering extended functionality. Usually implemented by `ObjectMapper`, but modules should NOT rely on this -- if they do require access to mapper instance, they need to call `getOwner()` method.

- - ### Method Detail

    - #### getMapperVersion

          Version getMapperVersion()

      Method that returns version information about `ObjectMapper` that implements this context. Modules can use this to choose different settings or initialization order; or even decide to fail set up completely if version is compatible with module.

    - #### getOwner

          <C extends ObjectCodec> C getOwner()

      Fallback access method that allows modules to refer to the `ObjectMapper` that provided this context. It should NOT be needed by most modules; and ideally should not be used -- however, there may be cases where this may be necessary due to various design constraints.

      NOTE: use of this method is discouraged, as it allows access to things Modules typically should not modify. It is included, however, to allow access to new features in cases where Module API has not yet been extended, or there are oversights.

      Return value is chosen to not leak dependency to `ObjectMapper`; however, instance will always be of that type. This is why return value is declared generic, to allow caller to specify context to often avoid casting.

      Since:
        2.0

    - #### getTypeFactory

          TypeFactory getTypeFactory()

      Accessor for finding `TypeFactory` that is currently configured by the context.

      NOTE: since it is possible that other modules might change or replace TypeFactory, use of this method adds order-dependency for registrations.

      Since:
        2.0

    - #### isEnabled

          boolean isEnabled(MapperFeature f)

          boolean isEnabled(JsonParser.Feature f)

    - #### isEnabled

          boolean isEnabled(JsonGenerator.Feature f)

    - #### configOverride

          MutableConfigOverride configOverride(Class<?> type)

      "Mutant accessor" for getting a mutable configuration override object for given type, needed to add or change per-type overrides applied to properties of given type. Usage is through returned object by colling "setter" methods, which directly modify override object and take effect directly. For example you can do

             mapper.configOverride(java.util.Date.class)
                 .setFormat(JsonFormat.Value.forPattern("yyyy-MM-dd"));

      to change the default format to use for properties of type `Date` (possibly further overridden by per-property annotations)

      Method used for defining mix-in annotations to use for augmenting specified class or interface. All annotations from `mixinSource` are taken to override annotations that `target` (or its supertypes) has.

      Note: mix-ins are registered both for serialization and deserialization (which can be different internally).

      Note: currently only one set of mix-in annotations can be defined for a single class; so if multiple modules register mix-ins, highest priority one (last one registered) will have priority over other modules.

      Parameters:
        `target` - Class (or interface) whose annotations to effectively override
        `mixinSource` - Class (or interface) whose annotations are to be "added" to target's annotations, overriding as necessary
