Class does not exist reflection exception error in laravel 5.7

Question

my api.php

Route::get('getProducts' , 'ProductController@getProducts');

ProductController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Services\ProductService;


class ProductController extends Controller
{
    private $productService;

    public function __construct(ProductService $productService){
        $this->productService = $productService;
    }

    public function getProducts(){
        return $this->productService->get_products();
    }

    public function addProduct(Request $request){
        $all_data = array(
            'product_name' => $request['product_name'],
            'product_code' => $request['product_code'],
            'category_id' => $request['category_id'],
            'sub_category_id' => $request['sub_category_id'],
            'unit' => $request['unit']
        );
        return $this->productService->create_product($all_data);
    }
}

ProductService.php

namespace App\Http\Services;


use App\Http\Repositories\ProductRepositary;


    class ProductService
    {
        protected $productRepositary;
        public function __construct(ProductRepositary $productRepositary){
                $this->productRepositary = $productRepositary;
        }


        public function get_products(){
            return $this->productRepositary->get_products();
        }

        public function create_product($data){
            return $this->productRepositary->create_new_product($data);
        }
    }

ProductRepositary.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Repositories;

use App\Product;

/**
 * 
 */
Class ProductRepositary
{
    public function getModel(){
        return new Product;
    }

    public function get_products(){
        $all_data = $this->getModel()->all();
        return $all_data;
    }

    public function create_new_product($data){
        $created = $this->getModel()->firstOrCreate($data)
        return $created;
    }
}

Everything looks fine , i don't know where i'm missing but i'm getting this error Class App\Http\Repositories\ProductRepositary does not exist i have tried

composer dump-autoload
php artisan config:cache
php artisan cache:clear
php artisan optimize:clear

the file is inside right directory

app/Http/Repositories/ProductRepositary.php

everything but still error is there , does anyone faced the same issue and what was the solution you have found for that?

before giving negative, please provide the solution and give negative score

Is the file ProductRepositary.php in the correct directory? Also as a side note, you spelled "Repository" wrong. — Mike
yeah it is inside app/http/Repositories/ProductRepositary.php — Vijay
use lowercase 'class' to define ProductRepositary, I am not sure about whether this will solve issue or not. but give it a try — Rakesh Mishra

I think there is a syntax error in your ProductRepositary class inside create_new_product function. You have missed semicolon there so add semicolon.

public function create_new_product($data){
    $created = $this->getModel()->firstOrCreate($data); // Here you have missed semicolon
    return $created;
}

I hope you will understand.
