I am fairly new to Laravel and am trying to integrate the Google Analytics PHP Client Library (https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/core/v3/quickstart/service-php) in an application I am building.
According to the documentation , the library needs to be installed via Composer and then loaded using:
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
In the vendors folder, I can see that there is a folder named google. So my question is, what would be the correct way to load this library in Laravel? Would it be using the code shown above, or some other method?
Thanks
The autoload.php file is already required by your laravel app, you should be able to access it by it's namespace after running composer dump-autoload as suggested by Ayaz.
You may want to look at a package like https://github.com/spatie/laravel-analytics where they've done the work to integrate the google analytics api into Laravel a bit more. Even if you don't use it I'm sure you can glean some good info from checking out the source files.
According to the documentation , the library needs to be installed via Composer and then loaded
You can do it by executing following command in your git bash or cmd
$ composer dump-autoload

I have a Laravel installation on v7.29.3 (our server won't support v8 yet)
I am having an issue with the ui:auth command. It is generating Controllers that reference classes in the Illuminate namespace that don't exist.
For example, the Auth\VerificationController class it gives me, uses Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\VerifiesEmails but I can't see a corresponding file in the /vendor/laravel/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Auth directory.
What's more, when I search for "VerifiesEmails" in the Laravel API doc for v7.x there is no such file. This file does exist however when I search for it in v6.x
So my guess is that I've got a mismatch somewhere and I'm getting v6 controllers for a v7 installation.
However, composer is showing that I have laravel/ui 2.5 which is supposed to be for Laravel 7.
I've tried deleting my composer.lock and vendor directories and reinstalling from composer in the hope that would clear up the issue, but no dice.
Any ideas what could be going on?
Those classes aren't in vendor/laravel/framework/src/.... They are not part of the framework. They come from the laravel/ui package, vendor/laravel/ui/auth-backend/....
I would like to use Aws\Kinesis\KinesisClient on my Laravel project but unfortunately, when I install package using
composer require aws/aws-sdk-php
and try to use
use Aws\Kinesis\KinesisClient;
I got
Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\FatalThrowableError: Class 'Aws\Kinesis\KinesisClient not found.
Please guide me how to use KinesisClient on laravel project.
Regards.
The documentation says that; you need to include vendor/autoload.php before using it.
<?php
// Require the Composer autoloader.
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
use Aws\S3\S3Client;
If you don't want to require on every class you use, then maybe you may check this repository to load with service provider. (more laravel way)
This is a simple Laravel service provider for making it easy to include the official AWS SDK for PHP in your Laravel and Lumen applications.
my project has been done with laravel 7 and its on a real host with cpanel as server software.
I want to online payment to website and I think Stripe is the best option but I cant figure it out how to use it without composer.
in every tutorial people used composer commands for doing this automatically, but in my case I have to put files one by one and update files.
I asked host provider about giving me composer ability on apache, but they said they cant so I have to do every thing manually.
I would be very glad if you could help me in this.
You do not need the Composer in your Hosting-Environment, If you have it in your Local-Environment then you will have the files already installed on your server. You could try Homestead what is already a pre-configured local-development environment for Laravel.
Composer is only a dependency-management-system, what makes you really easier to use open-source-code from other third party providers like the STRIPE-SDK.
But you can also use Stripes RAW REST-API's without the SDK, but it would be much more work - you can for example extract the needed parameters from the curl-example of stripe, but also if you use this direct way It would be easier to use a Curl-Wrapper-Library like Guzzle.
You should really have a deeper look into the composer, because if you want to use & contribute with some community-projects you need composer.
BTW: when you install laravel from scratch, then you still use the composer, as you see here.
While Composer is the recommended option, Stripe supports manual installation by downloading a specific version of their library and including it directly. It's also covered directly on their readme page here: https://github.com/stripe/stripe-php#manual-installation
You install the library locally by downloading the latest release and unzipping it, you add this to your own code and then you include the library like this:
require_once('/path/to/stripe-php/init.php');
Does laravel has gems like as ruby on rails have? Like, for signup flow ruby on rails has "devise" gem. Does laravel has anything like that?
There is no built-in package manager for Laravel but you can use reference like: https://packalyst.com . Here you can find all available packages for Laravel. All of them can be installed with Composer - php package manager. There is detail description how to install every pack in Packalyst.
If you want to have auth in Laravel you have two options. To do it manually, or to use the built-in module for authentication. You can run
php artisan make:auth
in the main project directory. This will add the required views and routes in the Laravel file structure in order to use the auth. Better to run this command on fresh installation. See this for detailed step by step authentication with Laravel 5: https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/authentication#authentication-quickstart
