Description copied from interface: Assembler

Assemblers receive a callback to the ModuleAssembly they are supposed to configure. They can use this to register objects, composites, services etc. and the additional metadata that may exist for these artifacts.

An Assembler may create new Modules by calling ModuleAssembly.layer() and then LayerAssembly.module(String) (String)}. This allows an Assembler to bootstrap an entire Layer with more Modules.
