[FIXED] trying to import a file

Issue

I'm a beginner in php, I'm trying to use a library but I'm facing an error

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class 'Einenlum\LingueeApi\Factory' not found in C:\xampp\htdocs\index.php:4 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in C:\xampp\htdocs\index.php on line 4

the library is this

I followed correctly what it says in the readme file my code is like this:

<?php
use Einenlum\LingueeApi\Factory;

$linguee = Factory::create();

$response = $linguee->translate('desert', 'eng', 'ger');

echo $response->toJson();
?>

I'm not sure if this readme file is giving me correct information, how can I run this project?

Solution

Since that library/package is managed via composer you'd need to use composer's autoload:

<?php
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use Einenlum\LingueeApi\Factory;
...
