Spring Boot Object mapper

Hello,

I there any possibility to share Jackson Object Mapper between Spring Boot and GraphQL?

Instead of duplicating code like this

GraphQL

@Component
public class GraphQlObjectMapperConfigurer implements ObjectMapperConfigurer {
  @Override
  public void configure(ObjectMapper mapper, ObjectMapperConfigurerContext context) {
    mapper.registerModule(new JavaTimeModule())
        .configure(SerializationFeature.WRITE_DATES_AS_TIMESTAMPS, false);
  }
}

Spring Boot

@Configuration
public class JacksonConfiguration {

  @Bean
  Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder() {
    JavaTimeModule module = new JavaTimeModule();
    return new Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder()
        .featuresToDisable(SerializationFeature.WRITE_DATES_AS_TIMESTAMPS)
        .serializationInclusion(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL)
        .findModulesViaServiceLoader(true)
        .modulesToInstall(module);
  }

}

I think by default you would expect spring’s default object mapper but I also understand that you may want to configure it differently. Could you add some property like ...graphql.use-default-objectmapper = false and then provide a objectmapper with a certain qualifier?

Cool!
