How to integrate razorpay payment gateway in codeigniter - php

Question

Hi i am trying to integrate razorpay payment gateway in codeigniter. The code that I'm using is
View Code
<?php echo form_open_multipart('user/addcredit/'); ?>
<div class="form-group">
<script
src="https://checkout.razorpay.com/v1/checkout.js"
data-key="razorpay_key">
</script>
</div>
<?php echo form_close(); ?>
Controller code
class User extends CI_Controller
{
public function addcredit()
{
require_once (APPPATH . 'base_url()/litehires/assets/razorpay-php/Razorpay.php');
use Razorpay\Api\Api;
$api = new Api('rzp_test_KEY_ID', ''rzp_test_KEY_ID');
if (isset($_POST['razorpay_payment_id']) === false) {
die("Payment id not provided");
}
$id = $_POST['razorpay_payment_id'];
echo json_encode($payment->toArray());
}
}
What I got to know is that I cannot use 'use' keyword inside the function. But I'm not able to find alternative way to do the integration. I haven't use composer, so would appreciate if anyone could please tell me how to integrate this payment without composer

You can easily put the use keyword at the top of that file. If there is already an Api class clashing with this, you can do the following:
<?php
require_once (APPPATH . 'base_url()/litehires/assets/razorpay-php/Razorpay.php');
use Razorpay\Api as RazorpayApi;
class User extends CI_Controller
{
public function addcredit()
{
$api = new RazorpayApi('rzp_test_KEY_ID', 'rzp_test_KEY_ID');
This will include the file, then use the class, so it is available below in the controller.
