how to autoload with composer.json? - php

Question

I am using these require statements in my root folder of project directory (in index.php).
require("./models/college/collegeModel.php");
require("./routes/routes.php");
require("./controllers/college/collegeController.php");
require("./controllers/home/homeController.php");
require("./controllers/login/loginController.php");
require("./controllers/logout/logoutController.php");
require("./controllers/public/publicController.php");
require("./lib/util.php");
and now I am trying to use composer autoload to load on demand by using composer.json file to remove all above require with single one :
require("./vendor/autoload.php");
My composer.json file is as follows
{
"name": "vermajnv/web",
"authors": [
{
"name": "vermajnv",
"email": "nayanrahul.jnv#gmail.com"
}
],
"require": {},
"autoload": {
"classmap": ["models/college", "controllers/college",
"controllers/home", "controllers/login", "controllers/logout",
"controllers/public", "lib/", "routes/"]
}
}
It works fine if I remove "lib/" and "routes/"
please provide me proper solution for this problem I'll be thankful to all.

oho.. I got what I was doing wrong
actually the util.php and routes.php does not contains a class to initialize the autoload_classmap.php
my util.php was before like this :
<?php
public function baseUrl($url) {
$contaxtPath = "/" . explode("/", $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'])[1];
return $contaxtPath . $url;
}
public function redirect($to) {
$url = baseUrl($to);
header("Location:" . $url, 302);
}
Now I just make it wrapped with a class with static methods and these methods can be access through HTMLutill::
<?php
class HTMLutil {
// static method inside a class are visible every where without creating instance of class (HTMLutil) we can access it by HTML::baseUrl();
public static function baseUrl($url) {
$contaxtPath = "/" . explode("/", $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'])[1];
return $contaxtPath . $url;
}
public static function redirect($to) {
$url = self::baseUrl($to);
header("Location:" . $url, 302);
}
}
Now my app is working fine.
happy coding guys..
