So I have the Paypal REST API installed ( https://github.com/paypal/rest-api-sdk-php ) with Composer in my_drupal_module/lib/Drupal/ and now I want to use the namespaces in a function in my module. I understood that I need something like xautoload ( https://drupal.org/project/xautoload ) to do that so I tried something like:
$payer = new \Drupal\vendor\PayPal\Api\Payer;
with and without the first slash, and with and without parentheses at the end but it didn't work. I added:
require DIR . '/lib/Drupal/vendor/autoload.php';
but still nothing so I commented it. Meanwhile I found this: https://drupal.org/node/1976206 that explains this issue but it is unclear to me what exactly to write in hook_xautoload() or direct registration for the setup that I have. Can someone please help?
Nevermind. I solved it. Thanks to proloy03 who gave me the idea: https://drupal.org/node/2096621
You don't need xautoload to load the classes and namespace just implement hook_init to require it like so:
function my_module_init() {
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
}
and then in your function write:
$payer = new PayPal\Api\Payer();
and it all works.
With xautload you can do something like this...
In mymodule.module
function mymodule_libraries_info() {
'paypal' => array(
'name' => 'PayPal SDK',
'xautoload' => function($adapter) {
$adapter->composerJson('composer.json');
}
}
Declaring this allow you to use the namespace. Like
use PayPal\Api\Amount;
Check xautoload.api.php
Your assumption that you need XAutoload to use the Paypal API installed by Composer is wrong.
The only thing you need to make any code installed by Composer available is to include the Composer autoloader in your code execution path when you need any of the provided classes. The easiest form of this is to simply require the Composer autoloader in the very first index.php (or whatever Drupal uses) file that answers every request (possibly instantiating more Drupal classes, modules and stuff).
Once the code execution comes to your own code, the autoloading allows your code to include all the classes you included with Composer.
How to use the code? Don't invent your own namespace for the existing code, it will not work. "\Drupal\vendor\PayPal\Api\Payer" sounds pretty wrong to me, I suspect the correct namespace is "\PayPal\Api\Payer". And yes, that file does indeed exist. So you have to use that.
If it still does not work, complaining the class could not be loaded, then the Composer autoloader file is not included in your scripts code path.

I get results from a jQuery Survey in JSON within my Typo3 Extension. Now I want to send these results with the Typo3 Mail API to my Inbox. According to the documentations following shoud do the work
$mail = \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\GeneralUtility::makeInstance(\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Mail\MailMessage::class);
$mail->from(new \Symfony\Component\Mime\Address('john.doe#example.org', 'John Doe'));
$mail->to(
new \Symfony\Component\Mime\Address('receiver#example.com', 'Max Mustermann'),
new \Symfony\Component\Mime\Address('other#example.net')
);
$mail->subject('Your subject');
$mail->text('Here is the message itself');
$mail->html('<p>Here is the message itself</p>');
$mail->attachFromPath('/path/to/my-document.pdf');
$mail->send();
so my code looks like this:
namespace TYPO3\CMS\Core\Mail;
if (!file_exists( dirname(__DIR__, 2).'/vendor/autoload.php' )) {
throw new \RuntimeException(
'Could not find vendor/autoload.php, make sure you ran composer.'
);
} else {
require dirname(__DIR__, 2).'/vendor/autoload.php';
}
use Symfony\Component\Mime\Address;
use Symfony\Component\Mime\Email;
use TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\GeneralUtility;
use TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\MailUtility;
$mail = \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\GeneralUtility::makeInstance(\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Mail\MailMessage::class);
$mail->from(new \Symfony\Component\Mime\Address('john.doe#example.org', 'John Doe'));
$mail->to(
new \Symfony\Component\Mime\Address('receiver#example.com', 'Max Mustermann'),
new \Symfony\Component\Mime\Address('other#example.net')
);
$mail->subject('Your subject');
$mail->text('Here is the message itself');
$mail->html('<p>Here is the message itself</p>');
$mail->attachFromPath('/path/to/my-document.pdf');
$mail->send();
I just getting errors. Does anyone know how i can achieve this?
Following error i get
Notice: Undefined index: TYPO3_CONF_VARS in /var/www/html/local_packages/ext_sitepackage/public/typo3/sysext/core/Classes/Mail/Mailer.php on line 170
Apparently this is the same question as you already posted here.
This will never work like this. You need to either build a fully fledged TYPO3 extension or a standalone application using symfony/mailer directly.
Your script is missing $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['MAIL'].
You stumble over the fact that you're programming past the conventions and requirements of TYPO3, but then you're surprised that the framework's functions don't work...
Create a middleware in your sitepackage, and register it correctly. Check for a special route and let the rest run. If handling, use the code there.
You need to run the mailing code in a (full) bootstrapped Typo3 context:
in a middleware
extbase plugin registered with pageNum directly
Your pasted code looks weired in a lot of ways. Just putting a file in a extension folder do not mean that is correctly a typo3 extension.
Maybe you want to start and have a proper extension setup first, with the corresponding readings:
ext_emconf.php / composer.json as a minimum
code files in 'Classes/' subfolders
then decide with which way you want to handle the "ajax" call and send the email, there are several possibilities (as already mentioned above) .. than read and implement that solution the proper and correct way.
Just having a php file directly referenced/called and just bootstpping the composer autoloader do not and never will be bootstrapping Typo3 with all needed configuration bootstrapping (gathering confings from extensions, Local/AdditionalConfiguration, siteconfig and and and).
And generally a package/extension should have a namespace something like following (as a convention):
<extensionname.....
an thus registered as psr-4 autoloading in your extension composer.json ..
Starting to implement the peaces to simulate a Typo3 bootstpraping in that file is not good and will make a lot of headache ... it's easier to have a proper sitepacke/extension structure.
I'm in the process of trying to make a laravel compatible composer/packagist package. I'm using Laravel 5.5.
I've created a package : floor9design/machine-identifier. Composer downloads this to vendors/floor9design fine, but despite reading/googling how to do this, I'm unsure of how to include this in my laravel projects.
PHP Storm is correctly picking up the class, auto-completing as expecting.
I have not modified any files so far. If I add the following to a controller:
use Floor9design\MachineIdentifier\MachineIdentifier;
(alongside some class usage on the page).
PHP storm autocompletes this (as it does with other classes validly called).
When I try to load this, the following error comes:
Class 'Floor9design\MachineIdentifier\MachineIdentifier' not found
I've had a look round plenty of tutorials, and this final step seems to be missing from a lot of information.
I realise there are three approaches:
Firstly:
Direct include_once, which while working, is not the normal approach
Secondly:
Pre-laravel 5.5 approach (add something to app.php)
Thirdly
Laravel 5.5 approach and up, autodetection of something.
I've deliberately said something as the documentation seems to speak about ServiceProviders, and I simply don't get how they work.
Let me rephrase this into a question and a follow up question:
Question: apart from include_once, how do I load the MachineIdentifer class from floor9design/machine-identifier in Laravel.
Question 2: If the answer is via a service provider, can you simply explain how they relate to one another.
Thanks
Answer (as accepted below)
On the composer repo I was incorrectly specifying the PSR4 namespace, which is now corrected to:
"autoload": {
"psr-4": {
"Floor9design\\MachineIdentifier\\": "src"
}
}
The previous namespace had a -, which is an illegal character. Many thanks to lawrence-cherone.
Your PSR4 is wrong in the package
floor9design\\machine-identifier\\": "src"
Will cause the composer/autoload_psr4.php to map to:
'floor9design\\machine-identifier\\' => array($vendorDir . '/floor9design/machine-identifier/src'),
Which is not a valid class namespace.
You should change the PSR4 to match your class namespace:
Floor9design\\MachineIdentifier\\": "src"
Once you fix that you will be able to use it like normal from anywhere in your project.
I have used composer to download the Angell EYE PayPal library into my vendor directory. Now I'm trying to call the class within a controller.
I've tried various methods:
Use \angelleye\PayPal;
at the top of page. I've tried using the require() method.
Within the controller I have used
$paypal = PayPal::PayPal($payment);
And a few other ways, but I just get the error Class not found at line 179 and I'm not sure why.
You just need to load a config file (depending on your framework) and the autoloader.
require_once('includes/config.php');
require_once('vendor/angelleye/paypal-php-library/autoload.php');
Of course, adjust the paths to suit where you have those saved, but the autoloader is what makes the classes available to you.
If you want more direct help you can submit a ticket here.
Thanks for response.
I actually managed to get it working on the framework.
I did nt have to load anything or require the class as the composer autoload must do it for me in the framework.
I simply added :
$PayPal = new \angelleye\PayPal\PayPal($PayPalConfig);
and it started to work.
Im guessing if i want to use the PayFlow i would call using:
$PayPal = new \angelleye\PayPal\PayFlow($PayPalConfig);
I will definately post back if the rest of the proccess fails to work.
I am trying to use highchart in cakephp and have followed the below tutorial and also the stackoverflow post on the subject.
I still get a highchart not found.
I downloaded highchartPHP and placed all the 4 files in Vendor/HighchartsPHP
In the layout, I add the lines with the actual js files in webroot/js
echo $this->Html->script('jquery-1.9.1.min'); // Include jQuery library
echo $this->Html->script('highcharts'); // Include jQuery library
This is my code
<?php
App::import('Vendor', 'HighchartsPHP/Highchart');
class ChartsController extends AppController
{
public function index() {
$chart = new Highchart(); /////////////////Error: Class 'Highchart' not found
$chart->chart = array(
'renderTo' => 'container', // div ID where to render chart
'type' => 'line'
);
$chart->series[0]->name = 'Tokyo';
$chart->series[0]->data = array(7.0, 6.9, 9.5);
$this->set( compact( 'chart' ) );
}
In view file
<?php $chart->printScripts(); ?>
<script type="text/javascript">
<?php echo $chart->render("chart");?>
</script>

Using HighchartsPHP library in CakePHP
I can't find any more instructions about cakePHP setup with highcharts so I am stuck and I get a highchart not found error.
I still have something missing. What has confused me is that highchartPHP doesn't explain how you install it for a MVC version with cakephp.
How to setup highchart so it works in cakephp ?
I got from the download zip button link so it must be v3
https://github.com/ghunti/HighchartsPHP
also Error: Class 'Highchart' not found from the controller as I outlined above
That's what happens when people don't mention version numbers...
...a year later nobody knows what they were talking about anymore. The tutorial and the question are most probably about version 1.x.
https://github.com/ghunti/HighchartsPHP/tree/v1.0
So a quick fix would be to use v1, but I'm not sure if that's a very good idea as it's probably not maintained anymore.
Namespaces and Composer
Look at the source code of version 2.x and 3.x, they are now using namespaces, and so the class cannot be found when not pointing into that namespace properly.
As mentioned on the projects homepage the library should be installed via composer, and with pretty much all those libraries using composer the generated autoloader needs to be used, but this isn't really the place here to explain how to use composer, this is already extensively covered all over the net.
https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md
Be sure to check out the CakePHP docs on how to use the composer autoloader with CakePHP too:
[...]
If you’re installing any other libraries with Composer, you’ll need to setup the autoloader, and work around an issue in Composer’s autoloader. In your Config/bootstrap.php file add the following:
// Load Composer autoload.
require APP . 'Vendor/autoload.php';
// Remove and re-prepend CakePHP's autoloader as Composer thinks it is the
// most important.
// See: http://goo.gl/kKVJO7
spl_autoload_unregister(array('App', 'load'));
spl_autoload_register(array('App', 'load'), true, true);

I built a PHP application that uses namespaces and PSR-0 autoloading. In trying to implement the Stripe library, I've found that it can't seem to load the classes because they aren't namespaced. Is there a way to not autoload if I have manually included the files?
// Get Stripe Library
require_once(App\App::$APP_PATH . "/Extensions/Stripe.php");
// Set Key
Stripe::setApiKey($stripe['secret_key']);
Setting the key in the example fails with a fatal error because it thinks a Stripe class exists in my namespace of the current file.
I found that if I add a use Stripe; line below my namespace declaration, it will work, but then fails on the next class in the Stripe library.
Am I really going to have to add a Use Stripe, Stripe_Customer, Stripe_xyz...; line to let it load the files correctly (which there are over 25 files) or is there a better way?
[EDIT]
Until I hear whether there is a better way, I've done this:
// Import Non-Namespaced Stripe Library
use Stripe, Stripe_Account, Stripe_ApiConnectionError, Stripe_ApiError, Stripe_ApiRequestor, Stripe_ApiResource, Stripe_AuthenticationError;
use Stripe_Card, Stripe_CardError, Stripe_Charge, Stripe_Coupon, Stripe_Customer, Stripe_Error, Stripe_Event, Stripe_InvalidRequestError;
use Stripe_Invoice, Stripe_InvoiceItem, Stripe_List, Stripe_Object, Stripe_Plan, Stripe_Recipient, Stripe_SingletonApiResource;
use Stripe_Stripe, Stripe_Token, Stripe_Transfer, Stripe_Util;
Using composer is the easiest way (I promise!)
Just install composer and then install stripe. Once you have those installed just browse to your project's folder and run composer install. This will install the needed dependencies and will put composer in a folder called vendor.
Then you simple require the autoload.php file which will load up stripe, without bothering to use a namespace. Here's a full example block that I grabbed from here.
<?php
require_once('vendor/autoload.php');
$stripe = array(
"secret_key" => "sk_test_BQokikJOvBiI2HlWgH4olfQ2",
"publishable_key" => "pk_test_6pRNASCoBOKtIshFeQd4XMUh"
);
\Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey($stripe['secret_key']);
?>
You can use \ to specify that the class name you're specifying is a fully qualified namespace (FQNS), for example:
<?php
use \Stripe, \Stripe_Account;
$stripe = new Stripe();
$stripe_account = new Stripe_Account();
or without use statements:
<?php
$stripe = new \Stripe();
$stripe_account = new \Stripe_Account();
