shadow-cljs watch app error on luminus page

Question

I am using luminus to build a webpage. I want to use clojure script so I created a project with

lein new luminus test +cljs

When starting the webpage I get the following message:

If you're seeing this message, that means you haven't yet compiled your ClojureScript!

Please run shadow-cljs watch app to start the ClojureScript compiler and reload the page.

so I installed and tried to run

npx shadow-cljs watch app

and get the following error:

shadow-cljs - config: /Users/jonas/Dropbox/prog/web/clojure/luminus/test/shadow-cljs.edn
shadow-cljs - running: lein with-profile +dev run -m shadow.cljs.devtools.cli --npm watch app
Executable 'lein' not found on system path.

i've looked everywhere but I cannot solve this problem. Any ideas?

update:

ok, this is what I have done to temporarily solve this:

First install in the test dir:

npm install react react-dom create-react-class

then run lein directly:

lein with-profile +dev run -m shadow.cljs.devtools.cli --npm watch app

so it is not suppose to be like this, but this is the closest that I get.

Answer 1

ok, I looked after a path variable to set but could not find one. So I simply copied lein from ~/bin/lein (my home dir) to /usr/local/bin and now it found it and it works. Strange that there is no way to set this for shadow
