jooby: modules

Modules

Modules are simply built-in Extensions. They are thin layers that bootstrap and configure external third-party libraries (like HikariCP, Jackson, or Hibernate) using Jooby’s Extension API.

Unlike other frameworks, Jooby modules do not create new layers of abstraction or custom wrappers around the libraries they integrate. Instead, they expose the raw library components directly to your application via the Service Registry, allowing you to use the library’s native API exactly as its creators intended.

Modules are distributed as separate dependencies. Below is the catalog of officially supported Jooby modules:
