It seems that defalias is similar to def so you can use:

{:lint-as {foobar/defalias clojure.core/def}}

it seems that (alias-ns clojure.string) is the same as (:require [clojure.string :refer :all]) - why invent a new syntax for this

ah yeah, I see, they are creating vars in their namespace to re-export clojure.string

there's not much that you can do about this in clj-kondo, except that you can :exclude some vars in the unresolved var linter

(https://github.com/clj-kondo/clj-kondo/blob/master/doc/linters.md#unresolved-var)

Thank you!

I though that perhaps there was a way to tell Kondo that superstring.core/join etc. exists and is the same as clojure.core/string etc. Ok, we will just exclude this lint check for the ns then.

I think you might just as well use clojure.string directly ;)

one way is to have an explicit declare for all the things being generated, Fulcro uses this approach for the DOM namespace: https://github.com/fulcrologic/fulcro/blob/main/src/main/com/fulcrologic/fulcro/dom.cljs#L17-L30

indeed

another way to "fix" this is to use clj-easy/stub https://github.com/clj-easy/stub which can generate stub namespaces with vars detected at runtime. Then you need to add this to your "lint" path so clj-kondo will pick up on those stubs

also see https://clojure-lsp.io/settings/#stub-generation

but the declare approach is the most robust I'd say

what I like about declare is that it will work with any tool (like LSP, but also Cursive)

yes, that's what I mean with "robust" :)

perhaps the super-string maintainers can be convinced to add it

yup, others have been, like on the CSK library: https://github.com/clj-commons/camel-snake-kebab/pull/54/files

nice!

awesome, thanks! I will talk to the maintainer

FYI superstring has a new release with the declare s. Thanks for the tip!
