I found these two links:
Clojure on emacs fails... & clojure isn't in your exec...
I'm unable to get cider to run on MacOS. I've been just using lein on the command line, but I would prefer to use cider.
I build a new project, like so:
lein new ec
open up core.clj
run Mx cider-jack-in
and I get:
The lein executable isn’t on your ‘exec-path’
I checked for the default in cider, and it is lein.
Is there any way to run cider on MacOS?
there are some macOS related problems with exec path detection for emacs.
There is an emacs package, that should solve this issue: exec-path-from-shell.
It used to help me when i was using macos (like 3 years ago, but i think it is still valid)
Otherwise you can try to put an absolute path for lein
(which lein
in terminal) to cider-lein-command
: M-x customize-group [ret] cider [ret] -> Cider lein command
, that should also work.
