php / composer not loading interface - php

Question

I've banged my head against the wall for 3/4 of a day now and just can't see the error of my ways.
I'm creating (or trying to!) a simple package that consists of a couple of classes and 1 interface. This is in github at https://github.com/dnorth98/victoropsnotifier
Basically though, there's the following directory structure:
victoropsnotifer
src
Signiant
VictorOpsNotifier
Transport.php
VictorOpsNotifier.php
Transport is very simple:
<?php
namespace Signiant\VictorOpsNotifer;
interface Transport
{
// must POST the $message to the VictorOps REST endpoint
public function send(Messages\Message $message);
}
and the beginning of VictorOpsNotifier is
<?php
namespace Signiant\VictorOpsNotifer;
use GuzzleHttp\Client;
class VictorOpsNotifer implements Transport
{
protected $endpoint_url;
:
:
The problem comes when I try to instantiate a new object using
<?php
require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';
use Signiant\VictorOpsNotifier\Messages\CustomMessage;
use Signiant\VictorOpsNotifier\VictorOpsNotifier;
$voConfig = ['routing_key' => 'test',
'endpoint_url' => 'https://goo'];
$voHandle = new VictorOpsNotifier($voConfig);
I get back
PHP Fatal error: Interface 'Signiant\VictorOpsNotifer\Transport' not found in /tmp/djn/tests/vendor/signiant/
victoropsnotifier/src/Signiant/VictorOpsNotifier/VictorOpsNotifier.php on line 8
PHP Stack trace:
PHP 1. {main}() /tmp/djn/tests/test.php:0
PHP 2. spl_autoload_call() /tmp/djn/tests/test.php:12
PHP 3. Composer\Autoload\ClassLoader->loadClass() /tmp/djn/tests/test.php:0
PHP 4. Composer\Autoload\includeFile() /tmp/djn/tests/vendor/composer/ClassLoader.php:301
PHP 5. include() /tmp/djn/tests/vendor/composer/ClassLoader.php:412
What on EARTH am I missing? Composer is finding the package ok from my github repo and everying is in the vendor folder and looks ok. It looks like the namespaces match...so for some reason, it's just not loading the Transport.php file containing the interface.

Answer 1

It seems to be just a typo:
namespace Signiant\VictorOpsNotifer;
^ no `i` in here
but
use Signiant\VictorOpsNotifier\VictorOpsNotifier;
^ but here it is
same thing with the class name.
Also, you're declaring namespace Signiant as src/, but it's really src/Signiant
By the way, there's no need to declare this package as psr-0, better to use psr-4 insetad. Not a big deal, just for conformity.
P.S. The strange thing it was complaining about interface, while it shouldn't have to until it hit the class, and it certainly must not hit the class while there was a typo.
P.P.S You can easily avoid those typo errors by using a proper IDE, PHPStorm, for example. It would highlight name of the class as missing as long as there wre typos (and i don't even start talking about autocompletion).

Answer 2

class VictorOpsNotifer implements \Signiant\VictorOpsNotifer\Transport{}
try add namespace before your interface.
