Module odo.container
Package net.odoframework.container

Interface Module

All Superinterfaces:
BiFunction<Container,​Properties,​Container>
All Known Implementing Classes:
Application, ModuleBuilder
public interface Module
extends BiFunction<Container,​Properties,​Container>
The Module interface represents a logic grouping of common BeanDefinition objects which need to be added to the container.

Modules are loaded using the Java Service Loader by registering a net.odoframework.container.Module file in META-INF/services or via your module-info.java file in JPMS environments

The module is an instance of a BiFunction and the BiFunction.apply(T, U) method is called taking the Container as a parameter.

Module authors should not implement this class but rather implement the ModuleBuilder or Application classes
