[SOLVED] How can I call a Google Application using CI4 - John_Betong - 05-17-2021
I have developed a couple of PHP online websites using Google Books API and struggling to get the API to work with CI4.
With PHP I use Composer to download the API then the following couple of lines and it works a treat:
Code:
require_once '/var/www/ci2/vendor/autoload.php';
$tmpUrl = 'https://console.cloud.google.com/home/dashboard?project=PROJECT_NO_GOES_HERE;
$GOOGLE_API_PROJECT_ID = 'API-KEY-GOES-HERE';
// CI4 ==> "Class "App\Controllers\Google_Client" not found"
$client = new Google_Client();RE: How can I call a Google Application using CI4 - InsiteFX - 05-17-2021
Did you add a use path\Google_Client ?
Also you may need a backslash \Google_Client();

@InsiteFX,

Using require_once '/var/www/ci2/vendor/autoload.php'; worked.
I could not set namespace and/or use?

Many thanks the problem was the missing leading backslash.
I've experienced the same problem earlier (since using CI4 namespaces) and had forgotten
