## Uses of Class
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.Module

Packages that use Module
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind: Basic data binding (mapping) functionality that allows for reading JSON content into Java Objects (POJOs) and JSON Trees (`JsonNode`), as well as writing Java Objects and trees as JSON.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg: Package that contains most of configuration-related classes; exception being couple of most-commonly used configuration things (like Feature enumerations) that are at the main level (`com.fasterxml.jackson.databind`).
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.module: Package that contains classes and interfaces to help implement custom extension `Module`s (which are registered using `ObjectMapper.registerModule(com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.Module)`.

### Uses of Module in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind

Methods in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind that return types with arguments of type Module
`static List<Module>` ObjectMapper.`findModules()` Method for locating available methods, using JDK `ServiceLoader` facility, along with module-provided SPI.
`static List<Module>` ObjectMapper.`findModules(ClassLoader classLoader)` Method for locating available methods, using JDK `ServiceLoader` facility, along with module-provided SPI.
`Iterable<? extends Module>` Module.`getDependencies()` Returns the list of dependent modules this module has, if any.

Methods in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind with parameters of type Module
`ObjectMapper` ObjectMapper.`registerModule(Module module)` Method for registering a module that can extend functionality provided by this mapper; for example, by adding providers for custom serializers and deserializers.
`ObjectMapper` ObjectMapper.`registerModules(Module... modules)` Convenience method for registering specified modules in order; functionally equivalent to: for (Module module : modules) { registerModule(module); }

Method parameters in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind with type arguments of type Module
`ObjectMapper` ObjectMapper.`registerModules(Iterable<? extends Module> modules)` Convenience method for registering specified modules in order; functionally equivalent to: for (Module module : modules) { registerModule(module); }

### Uses of Module in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg

Methods in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg that return types with arguments of type Module
`static List<Module>` MapperBuilder.`findModules()` Method for locating available methods, using JDK `ServiceLoader` facility, along with module-provided SPI.
`static List<Module>` MapperBuilder.`findModules(ClassLoader classLoader)` Method for locating available methods, using JDK `ServiceLoader` facility, along with module-provided SPI.

Methods in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg with parameters of type Module
`B` MapperBuilder.`addModule(Module module)`
`B` MapperBuilder.`addModules(Module... modules)`

Method parameters in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.cfg with type arguments of type Module
`B` MapperBuilder.`addModules(Iterable<? extends Module> modules)`

### Uses of Module in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.module

Subclasses of Module in com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.module
`class` `SimpleModule` Vanilla `Module` implementation that allows registration of serializers and deserializers, bean serializer and deserializer modifiers, registration of subtypes and mix-ins as well as some other commonly needed aspects (addition of custom `AbstractTypeResolver`s, `ValueInstantiator`s).
