Fatal error: Class 'MetacriticAPI' not found

[Felice Murolo]

Hi,

I've installed the directory metacritic_api in the root of my website.

So, i call example.php from browser:

https://mywebsite/metacritic_api/example.php.

The results is:
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class 'MetacriticAPI' not found in /srv/http/metacritic_api/example.php:7 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in /srv/http/metacritic_api/example.php on line 7

Where am I doing wrong?

Regards.

Are you sure you did put metacritic.php next to the example.php file?

You could try: new MetacriticAPI\MetacriticAPI() on line 7: https://github.com/danger89/metacritic_api/blob/master/example.php#L7

Are you sure you did put metacritic.php next to the example.php file?

yes, files metacritic.php and example.php are in the same directory

You could try: new MetacriticAPI\MetacriticAPI() on line 7:

[felice@asus metacritic_api]$ ls
composer.json example.php LICENSE phpcs.xml psalm.xml
composer.lock libs metacritic.php phpmetrics.json README.md

==========> this is output with normal line 7

[felice@asus metacritic_api]$ php example.php

OK, I indeed fixed the namespace issues (see latest master). Next problem is that Metacritics changes their site.

[Felice Murolo]

Now it works and you are right: the result of the value of users and metascore is always 0 and a lot of json result is empty.

[Melroy van den Berg]

Anyway, in the meanwhile I fixed that myself, see master branch again. It should now all work again as expected!
