Override Objective-C class method in Swift

Question

I'm trying to use JSONModel in a Swift project. I would like to override the method keyMapper from JSONModel but I don't find how to override an Objective-C class method in the model class.

The signature of the method is:

+(JSONKeyMapper*)keyMapper;

How can I do that?

check JSONModel's readme here:https://github.com/icanzilb/JSONModel it says it's not tested with Swift — Marin Todorov, Nov 12 '14 at 22:19
Yes I know but it doesn't mean it's not working. At the moment everything is working. I just would like to override this method to make some tests. — Nonouf, Nov 13 '14 at 22:00

You do it just like you override an instance method, except with the class keyword:

override class func keyMapper() -> JSONKeyMapper! {
    //code here
}
