Laravel seeder call seeder from parent directory - php

Question

I'm trying to call a seeder from a parent directory within my Laravel 9 project. My seeder locations are:
Database/Seeders/Production/Permissions/UserManagement/UserPermissionsTableSeeder
Database/Seeders/Production/Permissions/PermissionsGeneratorTableSeeder
It's my UserPermissionsTableSeeder seeder that I need to call my PermissionsGeneratorTableSeeder from:
<?php
namespace Database\Seeders\Production\Permissions\UserManagement;
use Illuminate\Database\Console\Seeds\WithoutModelEvents;
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
class UserPermissionsTableSeeder extends Seeder
{
/**
* Run the database seeds.
*
* #return void
*/
public function run($companyId = null)
{
$roles = [
'super_admin' => [
'user_index',
'user_show',
'user_store',
'user_update',
'user_destroy'
],
'admin' => [
'user_index',
'user_show',
'user_store',
'user_update'
]
];
$this->call(
Database\Seeders\Production\Permissions\PermissionsGeneratorTableSeeder::class,
false,
['roles' => $roles]
);
}
}
When I attempt to pass the full path to the call method, I get the following error path:
Target class [Database\Seeders\Production\Permissions\UserManagement\Database\Seeders\Production\Permissions\PermissionsGeneratorTableSeeder] does not exist.
What am I missing?
UPDATE
Here's the PermissionsGeneratorTableSeeder class:
<?php
namespace Database\Seeders\Production\Permissions;
use Illuminate\Database\Console\Seeds\WithoutModelEvents;
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
use Spatie\Permission\Models\Role;
use Spatie\Permission\Models\Permission;
class PermissionsGeneratorTableSeeder extends Seeder
{
/**
* Run the database seeds.
*
* #return void
*/
public function run($roles = [])
{
if (!$roles) {
return;
}
foreach ($roles as $key => $permissions) {
$role = Role::query();
$role = $role->where('name', $key);
if ($key != 'super_admin') {
$role = $role->where('company_id', $companyId);
}
$role = $role->first();
if (!$role) {
continue;
}
foreach ($permissions as $permission) {
$discoveredPermission = Permission::where('name', $permission)->first();
if ($discoveredPermission) {
$discoveredPermission->assignRole($role);
continue;
}
$permissionCreated = Permission::create([
'name' => $permission,
'guard_name' => config('auth.defaults.guard')
]);
$permissionCreated->assignRole($role);
}
}
}
}

In your call method just add a \ to start of the class full path and you're good to go
$this->call(
\Database\Seeders\Production\Permissions\PermissionsGeneratorTableSeeder::class,
false,
['roles' => $roles]
);
