I have a small application of Clojure and Pedestal that I grabbed from pedestal.io tutorial. It works fine in the terminal. When I open it in IntelliJ some "cannot be resolved" tips are appearing. And some code parts are getting a beige background.

enter image description here

I have Cursive plugin installed. The code is executed by boot repl. Is any way to resolve full code by IntelliJ? If so, which settings?

Update

"Indexed Maven Repositories" field

  • AFAIK does Cursive only support the last three major releases (i can not look for the source, but i asked the author in IRC when i was using '14). – cfrick Dec 10 '18 at 07:21

    looks like even clojure.core symbols are not being resolved (see ns and defn in snippet) - I think your problem is more general than just pedestal symbols – tar Dec 11 '18 at 20:26

Check your settings to make sure both Clojars and Maven repos are indexed:

IntelliJ IDEA Settings

Navigate to:

File
-> Settings
   -> Build, Execution, Deployment 
      -> Build Tools
         -> Maven
            -> Repositories

And make sure it looks like the above picture. If necessary, highlight both the Maven & Clojars repos and click "Update", then "OK" (you don't need to wait for it to finish as it is a background process).

Also, it is frequently helpful to do 

File 
  -> Invalidate Caches / Restart

Then it will resolve correctly:

How Cursive Should Look

Update #2

OK, I see you have a boot project. I have a lein project, and Cursive populated my list automatically (from project.clj I assume). Two ways forward:

  1. Search the docs, SO, & Cursive mailing list for boot info. The Cursive author is very responsive to items on the mailing list:

  2. If the above doesn't work, maybe convert it to a lein project just to make Cursive/IntelliJ happy. You can still run it as a boot project from the command line (or however you normally use boot).

For more info, see also this question: IntelliJ IDEA: "Indexed Maven Repositories" list - how to add remote maven repository in this list?

and the reference: http://maven.apache.org/settings.html#Repositories

Update #3:

OK, just found this boot Cursive info, which looks good: https://github.com/boot-clj/boot/wiki/For-Cursive-Users

    Thanks for the answer, but the "Indexed Maven Repositories" field, that you have shown in the first picture, is empty. I show it in a screenshot in an update to the question. – trzczy Dec 11 '18 at 20:11
