accessing api

[Rizki Workaja]

sorry for newbie question, how to accessing the api from controller, which non modular controller

my controller located on: app\http\controllers\admincontroller.php
inside of the controller, I try to call Module::all();

but it return error:
Class 'App\Http\Controllers\Module' not found

I assume it very fresh install with php 7 (xampp) and laravel 5.7

Need to reference the namespace properly 👍 Because Module is a registered facade, it's located at the root namespace, so you need to do one of these two things to access it properly:

1. Add a forward slash when you use the facade, which will tell PHP that this can be found at the root namespace:

\Module::all()

2. Inform PHP where the Module facade is located by specifying a use statement in your class, then you may simply use Module::all() without the forward slash in your code:

   <?php
   
   use Module;
   ...
   
   class YourController extends Controller
   {
       ...

There's an excellent article on understanding namespaces on Dayle Rees' blog that I recommend, found here: https://daylerees.com/php-pandas-namespaces/

Hope this helps 👍
