When using Laravel I am aware of the steps to follow to use a 3rd party library in my project using composer:
Add the package to composer.json:
"require": { "zizaco/confide": "3.2.x" }
Run
composer update
to install the package- Add to the providers and alias arrays in
config/app.php
I am trying to do the same with highchartsphp. Installing via composer is simple enough but there are no instructions on how to use this package with Laravel. How to load the correct file and how to I instantiate the class as described in the readme? Is it just a case of adding it to the providers and aliases and then doing $chart = new HighChart();
wherever I want?
