How to handle controllers in subfolders?

posted 10 years ago

I'm a bit confusing about how to work with controllers which is in subfolders of controller dir. For example i have file like this /home/web/www/app/controllers/Site/UserController.php which looks like this:

<?php
class UserController extends BaseController {

	public function index()
	{
		return View::make('hello');
	}

}

My route.php looks like this:

Route::group(array('prefix' => 'site'), function() {
	Route::get('/', 'UserController@index');
});

When i try to load i get this exception Symfony \ Component \ HttpKernel \ Exception \ NotFoundHttpException

Hi trololosha4real,

Try adding in your app/start/global.php the following line:

ClassLoader::addDirectories(array(

    app_path().'/commands',
    app_path().'/controllers',
    app_path().'/controllers/Site',
    ....
));

Or try using composer.json file and adding the same folder to autoload section:

"autoload": {
    "classmap": [
        "app/commands",
        "app/controllers",
        "app/controllers/Site",
        "app/models",
        "app/database/migrations",
        "app/database/seeds",
        "app/tests/TestCase.php"
    ]
},

Then you need to use php artisan dump-autoload CLI command.

Try and comment us.

Hope it helps you.
