'intellij incorrectly saying no beans of type found for autowired repository

I have created a simple unit test but IntelliJ is incorrectly highlighting it red. marking it as an error

No beans?

enter image description here

As you can see below it passes the test? So it must be Autowired?

I had this same issue when creating a Spring Boot application using their @SpringBootApplication annotation. This annotation represents @Configuration, @EnableAutoConfiguration and @ComponentScan according to the spring reference.

As expected, the new annotation worked properly and my application ran smoothly but, Intellij kept complaining about unfulfilled @Autowire dependencies. As soon as I changed back to using @Configuration, @EnableAutoConfiguration and @ComponentScan separately, the errors ceased. It seems Intellij 14.0.3 (and most likely, earlier versions too) is not yet configured to recognise the @SpringBootApplication annotation.

For now, if the errors disturb you that much, then revert back to those three separate annotations. Otherwise, ignore Intellij...your dependency resolution is correctly configured, since your test passes.

Always remember...

Man is always greater than machine.

Add Spring annotation @Repository over the repository class.

I know it should work without this annotation. But if you add this, IntelliJ will not show error.

@Repository
public interface YourRepository ...
...

If you use Spring Data with extending Repository class it will be conflict packages. Then you must indicate packages directly.

import org.springframework.data.repository.Repository;
...

@org.springframework.stereotype.Repository
public interface YourRepository extends Repository<YourClass, Long> {
    ...
}

And next you can autowired your repository without errors.

@Autowired
YourRepository yourRepository;

It probably is not a good solution (I guess you are trying to register repository twice). But work for me and don't show errors.

Maybe in the new version of IntelliJ can be fixed: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-137023

My version of IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate (2016.3.4 Build 163) seems to support this. The trick is that you need to have enabled the Spring Data plugin.

Sometimes you are required to indicate where @ComponentScan should scan for components. You can do so by passing the packages as parameter of this annotation, e.g:

@ComponentScan(basePackages={"path.to.my.components","path.to.my.othercomponents"})

However, as already mentioned, @SpringBootApplication annotation replaces @ComponentScan, hence in such cases you must do the same: 

@SpringBootApplication(scanBasePackages={"path.to.my.components","path.to.my.othercomponents"})

At least in my case, Intellij stopped complaining.

I always solve this problem doing de following.. Settings>Inspections>Spring Core>Code than you shift from error to warning the severity option

I am using spring-boot 2.0, and intellij 2018.1.1 ultimate edition and I faced the same issue.

I solved by placing @EnableAutoConfiguration in the main application class

@SpringBootApplication
@EnableAutoConfiguration
class App{
/**/
}

Solution 7:[7]

Check if you missed @Service annotation in your service class, that was the case for me.

Solution 8:[8]

Putting @Component or @configuration in your bean config file seems to work, ie something like: 

@Configuration
public class MyApplicationContext {
    @Bean
    public DirectoryScanner scanner() {
        return new WatchServiceDirectoryScanner("/tmp/myDir");
    }
}

@Component
public class MyApplicationContext {
    @Bean
    public DirectoryScanner scanner() {
        return new WatchServiceDirectoryScanner("/tmp/myDir");
    }
}

Solution 9:[9]

Configure application context and all will be ok.

Solution 10:[10]

Have you checked that you have used @Service annotation on top of your service implementation? It worked for me.

import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;

@Service
public class UserServiceImpl implements UserServices {}

Solution 11:[11]

Use @EnableAutoConfiguration annotation with @Component at class level. It will resolve this problem.

For example:

@Component
@EnableAutoConfiguration  
public class ItemDataInitializer  {

    @Autowired
    private ItemReactiveRepository itemReactiveRepository;

    @Autowired
    private MongoOperations mongoOperations;
}

Solution 12:[12]

If you don't want to make any change to you code just to make your IDE happy. I have solved it by adding all components to the Spring facet.

  1. Create a group with name "Service, Processors and Routers" or any name you like;
  2. Remove and recreate "Spring Application Context" use the group you created previously as a parent.

Solution 13:[13]

For me the solution was to place @EnableAutoConfiguration in the Application class under the @SpringBootApplication its going to underline it because its redundant. Delete it and voila all you warnings regarding missing beans are vanished! Silly Spring...

Solution 14:[14]

And one last piece of important information - add the ComponentScan so that the app knows about the things it needs to wire. This is not relevant in the case of this question. However if no @autowiring is being performed at all then this is likely your solution.

@Configuration
@ComponentScan(basePackages = {
    "some_package",
})
public class someService {

Solution 15:[15]

As long as your tests are passing you are good, hit alt + enter by taking the cursor over the error and inside the submenu of the first item you will find Disable Inspection select that

Solution 16:[16]

I am using this annotation to hide this error when it appears in IntelliJ v.14:

@SuppressWarnings("SpringJavaAutowiringInspection")

Solution 17:[17]

I had similar issue in Spring Boot application. The application utilizes Feign (HTTP client synthetizing requests from annotated interfaces). Having interface SomeClient annotated with @FeignClient, Feign generates runtime proxy class implementing this interface. When some Spring component tries to autowire bean of type SomeClient, Idea complains no bean of type SomeClient found since no real class actually exists in project and Idea is not taught to understand @FeignClient annotation in any way.

Solution: annotate interface SomeClient with @Component. (In our case, we don't use @FeignClient annotation on SomeClient directly, we rather use metaannotation @OurProjectFeignClient which is annotated @FeignClient and adding @Component annotation to it works as well.)

Solution 18:[18]

simple you have to do 2 steps

  1. add hibernate-core dependency
  2. change @Autowired to @Resource.
==>> change @Autowired to  @Resource

Solution 19:[19]

As most synchronisation errors between IntelliJ (IDE) and development environments.

Specially if you have automated tests or build that pass green all the way through.

Invalidate Cache and Restart solved my problem.

Solution 20:[20]

What you need to do is add

@ComponentScan("package/include/your/annotation/component") in AppConfiguration.java.

Since I think your AppConfiguraion.java's package is deeper than your annotation component (@Service, @Component...)'s package,

such as "package/include/your/annotation/component/deeper/config".

Solution 21:[21]

I had a similar problem in my application. When I added annotations incorrect highliting dissapeared.

@ContextConfiguration(classes = {...})

Solution 22:[22]

in my Case, the Directory I was trying to @Autowired was not at the same level,

after setting it up at the same structure level, the error disappeared

hope it can helps some one!

IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate

Add your main class to IntelliJ Spring Application Context, for example Application.java

File -> Project Structure..

left side: Project Setting -> Modules

right side: find in your package structure Spring and add + Application.java

Solution 24:[24]

just add below two annotations to your POJO.

@ComponentScan
@Configuration
public class YourClass {
    //TODO
}

Solution 25:[25]

My solution to this issue in my spring boot application was to open the spring application context and adding the class for the missing autowired bean manually!

(access via Project Structure menu or spring tool window... edit "Spring Application Context")

So instead of SpringApplicationContext just containing my ExampleApplication spring configuration it also contains the missing Bean:

SpringApplicationContext:

  • ExampleApplication.java
  • MissingBeanClass.java

et voilà: The error message disappeared!

Solution 26:[26]

This seems to still be a bug in the latest IntelliJ and has to do with a possible caching issue?

If you add the @Repository annotation as mk321 mentioned above, save, then remove the annotation and save again, this fixes the problem.

Solution 27:[27]

Sometimes - in my case that is - the reason is a wrong import. I accidentally imported 

import org.jvnet.hk2.annotations.Service

instead of 

import org.springframework.stereotype.Service

by blindly accepting the first choice in Idea's suggested imports. Took me a few minutes the first time it happend :-)

Solution 28:[28]

All you need to do to make this work is the following code:

@ComponentScan
public class PriceWatchTest{

    @Autowired
    private PriceWatchJpaRepository priceWatchJpaRepository;
...
...
}

Solution 29:[29]

I just had to use @EnableAutoConfiguration to address it, however this error had no functional impact.

Solution 30:[30]

It can be solved by placing @EnableAutoConfiguration on spring boot application main class.
