I have an RSA algorithm Library giving to me by a payment gateway and When I do a
include (app_path().'/PaymentGateway/Crypt/RSA.php');
this and try to make an object as $rsa = new Crypt_RSA();
this it gives me and error saying
Class 'App\Http\Controllers\Crypt_RSA' not found
I tried including it in web.php
and making an object it worked the problem occur when I try to include it in a Controller.
You can tell Composer to autoload any (non-PSR) class by adding the base folder to:
"autoload": {
"classmap": [
"app/commands",
"app/database/migrations",
"app/database/seeds",
"app/tests/TestCase.php"
],
....
And you can also autoload autoloaders by adding them to the files section:
"autoload": {
"files": [
"temboo/src/Temboo_Loader.php"
],
...
After adding those entries, execute:
composer dumpautoload
And check the file vendor/composer/autoload_classmap.php, the available classes must be all listed in it, if one file is not there it will not be autoloaded.
On default, everything included in the app folder of your laravel project is autoloaded, that is described in the composer.json of your project:
...
"autoload": {
"classmap": [
"database"
],
"psr-4": {
"App\\": "app/"
}
},
...
The only thing you will need to do is simply use the namespace:
use App/Path/To/Third/Party/plugin/Class;
If, however, the plugin is placed outside of the scope of App, then simply add it to the psr-4 autoloader:
"psr-4": {
"ProjectRootNs\\": "projects/myproject/"
}
This is what I did. Oh and a little back ground I use to have this in Laravel 4, PHP 5, jpgraph 2.
I am using jpgraph 4.1
on Laravel 5.5
using PHP 7
.
- Created a folder under app called
jpgraph
- Placed the
src
folder that is in the tarball of jpgraph in that folder
- Created file call
Graph1.php
, is my code using jpgraph, with the class Custom_GraphsJM
in the jpgraph
folder.
In composer.json
added "app/jpgraph/Graph1.php"
to the "classmap"
"autoload": {
"classmap": [
"database/seeds",
"database/factories",
"app/jpgraph/Graph1.php"
],
"psr-4": {
"App\\": "app/"
}
},
In the application folder:
composer dump-autoload
Checked the autoload_classmap.php
and I have
'Custom_GraphsJM' => $baseDir . '/app/jpgraph/Graph1.php',
In my Model at the top I have
use Custom_GraphsJM;
To create a class
$Two_Graphs_Temp = new Custom_GraphsJM();
