Laravel - class in namespace not found - php

Question

I have this model class (the filename is Audit.php):
<?php
namespace App\Models;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
abstract class AuditStatus
{
const UNKNOWN = "UNKNOWN";
const ERROR = "ERROR";
const WARNING = "WARNING";
const MSG = "MESSAGE";
const EXCHANGE_UPDATE = "EXCHANGE_UPDATE";
const PRICE_UPDATE = "PRICE_UPDATE";
}
class AuditCodes extends AuditStatus
{
}
class Audit extends Model
{
use HasFactory;
public $timestamps = false;
protected $fillable = ['action', 'msg'];
public static function Add($action, $msg){
(new static)::insert(['action'=>$action, 'msg' => $msg]);
}
}
And im trying to make a new command like this:
<?php
namespace App\Console\Commands;
use App\Models\AuditCodes;
use Illuminate\Console\Command;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB;
class PriceCreate extends Command
{
/**
* The name and signature of the console command.
*
* #var string
*/
protected $signature = 'price:create';
/**
* The console command description.
*
* #var string
*/
protected $description = 'Create prices';
/**
* Create a new command instance.
*
* #return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
/**
* Execute the console command.
*
* #return int
*/
public function handle()
{
dd(AuditCodes::MSG);
}
}
but when I run the command the compiler throws this error:
Error
Class "App\Console\Commands\App\Models\Audit\Audit_Codes" not found
at C:\xampp\htdocs\bintest\app\Console\Commands\PriceCreate.php:46
Can anyone help me on how to declare my class?
Thanks!!!

Answer 1

Try to declare each class in its own file.
I mean if you have three classes: Audit, AuditCodes and AuditStatus
You will also have three different files in App\Models\ directory, like that App\Models\Audit.php, App\Models\AuditCodes.php and App\Models\AuditStatus.php.
It should be solve your problem.
