Paypal integration with Laravel 5.1 - php

Question

I'm trying to integrate payment gateway (paypal) with laravel 5.1. I found some solutions for laravel 4, but none for laravel 5.0 and above.
I have been following all the steps mentioned in this link. xroot/laravel-paypalpayment
But I am getting FatalErrorException in PaypalPaymentController.php line 10:
I've attached my Paypal ntegration code, and a screen shot of the error.
Router.php
resource('payment','PaymentController');
app.php
Anouar\Paypalpayment\PaypalpaymentServiceProvider::class,
'Paypalpayment' => Anouar\Paypalpayment\Facades\PaypalPayment::class,
PaypalPaymentController.php

// ### Api Context
// Pass in a `ApiContext` object to authenticate
// the call. You can also send a unique request id
// (that ensures idempotency). The SDK generates
// a request id if you do not pass one explicitly.
$this->_apiContext = Paypalpayment:: ApiContext(
Paypalpayment::OAuthTokenCredential(
$this->_ClientId,
$this->_ClientSecret

// dynamic configuration instead of using sdk_config.ini
$this->_apiContext->setConfig(array(

Answer 1

I do not know your codebase, but if your class is a controller, why are you extending a Facades class? The issue is that your code is looking for the Facades class in your my_app\Http\Controllers namespace.
Removing that line or correctly importing the class will resolve your issue. However, I think you may need to rethink your design here.
