Error in instructions?

[jackfruh]

Hi, the instructions say to require '/vendor/autoload.php';

This assumes your project is on the root of a drive and returns an error if not:
Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required '/vendor/autoload.php'

@jackfruh you'll need to install composer. https://getcomposer.org/doc/01-basic-usage.md
composer init in the base root of your project.

I used composer to install the package, so I think composer is ok?

See
-Folder structure (top left)
-Code (top right)
-Error (bottom)

If I remove the leading slash, the error goes away:

I feel like even with this, I must be doing something wrong as the next step in the instructions is to add this line of code
use Jumbojett\OpenIDConnectClient;
but PHPStorm is flagging the namespace as invalid, and the OpenIDConnectClient class isn't found:

If this is something you'd have time to interactively troubleshoot, I'd gladly pay you for your time.

@jackfruh Have you tried require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php'; ? It could be a path issue.

[jackfruh]

I did try that and it got past the path issue, but still couldn't find the class.

@jackfruh you might be using an old package. Try this:

# Tell composer to use the github repo for this lib
composer config repositories.repo-name vcs https://github.com/jumbojett/OpenID-Connect-PHP.git
# Get the latest from github
composer require jumbojett/openid-connect-php:dev-master

I hope this solves the issue!

[jackfruh]

Thanks! use Jumbojett\OpenIDConnectClient; is no longer flagging as an error in PHPStorm, so things are looking up!

@jackfruh Glad to hear! I encourage you submit a PR with changes to the README if you think anything needs clarification.
