Laravel 5 Dingo API controller

Question

I have been trying to implement a REST API using the Laravel 5 Dingo API package.

This is my routing code:

 $api->version('v1', function ($api) {
    $api->get('users/{id}', 'Api\V1\UsersController@show');
});

This is my error code:

{"message":"Class Api\\V1\\UsersController does not exist","code":-1,"status_code":500}

So, where should I place my controller file in order it finds the correct path for my controller ?

I placed the file in app/http/controllers/Api/V1/ directory but I'm still getting this kind of error.

I am using Dingo API 0.10 for Laravel.

Does your UsersController file have the correct namespace? I.e. does it have namespace App\Http\Controllers\Api\V1 at the top of the file? – Coagulase

yes there is namespace App\Http\Controllers\Api\V1 at the top the Userscontroller – Indecision

The only other thing I could recommend with what I can see is to check for spelling mistakes and check you're following the docs properly: github.com/dingo/api/wiki/Creating-API-Endpoints If you can add more info to your question you may be able to get some more help. Maybe copy paste the output of route:list – Coagulase

Solved this problem my adding full path of the controller in the route $api->get('users/{id}', 'App\Http\Controllers\Api\V1\UsersController@show'); – Indecision

Answer 1

By adding full path of the controller in the route

$api->get('users/{id}', 'App\Http\Controllers\Api\V1\UsersController@show');

will fix this error.
