composer autoload issue

[itsonit]

If the running script is placed in a a subdirectory, it will break the loading of the installed providers.

For ex., including autoload like this
require __DIR__.'../vendor/autoload.php';

produce a fatal error:

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'UserAgentParser\\Exception\\PackageNotLoadedException' with message 'You need to install the package piwik/device-detector to use this provider' in ..

@itsonit see related issue #61 (comment)

Will be solved when moving to php7 only in the next major. For now

[ThaDafinser]

For now you need to disable this check. Because the folder is not correctly "relative"

[itsonit]

thx for your reply. For my purpose it was simple to switch routing from filesystem to programmatic aka url-rewrite.

[ThaDafinser]

Nice you found already a workaround 👍

@ThaDafinser Faced with this problem right now. Can you fix this bug?

[ThaDafinser]

@egorsmkv can you show me your directory structure and give more informations?

[egorsmkv]

@ThaDafinser I add your library to my Yii2 project and get this error.

[ThaDafinser]

@egorsmkv you can do a var_dump(getcwd()); exit() right before the Exception is thrown?

[ThaDafinser]

I think this could work

if (! file_exists(__DIR__ . '/../../../../' . $this->getPackageName() . '/composer.json') && ! file_exists(__DIR__ . '/../../vendor/' . $this->getPackageName() . '/composer.json')) {
    throw new PackageNotLoadedException('You need to install the package ' . $this->getPackageName() . ' to use this provider');
}

[egorsmkv]

the fact is that I do not want to put the crutches in the code

[ThaDafinser]

@egorsmkv i asked you for your directory structure and i asked if you could post the output of a debug statement.

If you dont want to give me any information i will stop trying to solve this issue

//note the comment above "I think this could work..." is a side note for a possible fix

[egorsmkv]

@ThaDafinser basic yii2 structure: https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2-app-basic#directory-structure

Maybe it's worth to check availability of the library through the try / catch?

[ThaDafinser]

I found this solution...

[ThaDafinser]

@ThaDafinser When do you plan to release a new version which includes this fix?

[ThaDafinser]

@chris-doehring i'm just waiting for a feedback, from 1 or 2 people...

[egorsmkv]

@ThaDafinser unfortunately, I don't use this library, so I can't test the change.

[chris-doehring]

@ThaDafinser I tried version 1.4.0 and got the same issue as described above. The current dev-master does fix the issue.

[aurelijusrozenas]

Yes, seems to be working. Tested on symfony 2.8.

[ThaDafinser]

Release v1.5.0 https://github.com/ThaDafinser/UserAgentParser/releases/tag/v1.5.0
