Autoloading

---

Description

The ClassLoader class handles autoloading of classes in the Mako framework. The autoloader will also autoload PSR-0 compatible classes located in the libraries directory as well as classes from third party libraries installed using composer.

Methods

mapClass(string $className, string $classPath)

The mapClass method will add a class to the autoloader mappings.

ClassLoader::mapClass('FooBar', '/path/to/FooBar.php');

ClassLoader::mapClass('foo\FooBar', '/path/to/foo/FooBar.php');

mapClasses(array $classes)

The mapClasses method will add an array of classes to the autoloader mappings.

ClassLoader::mapClasses(array
(
	'Foo' => '/path/to/Foo.php',
	'Bar' => '/path/to/Bar.php',
));

directory(string $path)

The directory method will add an additional path from which the autoloader will try to load PSR-0 compatible classes.

ClassLoader::directory('/path/to/library');

registerNamespace(string $namespace, string $path)

The registerNamespace method allows you to register a PSR-0 compatible namespace with the autoloader.

ClassLoader::registerNamespace('Zend\XmlRpc', MAKO_LIBRARIES_PATH . '/XmlRpc');
