How to create an Aura DI container?

Question

I installed a composer, downloaded the Aura, created an index.pxp and wrote in it:

require('vendor/autoload.php');

use Aura\Di\ContainerBuilder;
$builder = new ContainerBuilder();
$di = $builder->newInstance();

$object = $di->newInstance('Vendor\Package\ClassName');

But phpStorm says:Undefined namespase DI

And i have error: Fatal error: Class 'Aura\Di\ContainerBuilder' not found in... on line 4

I do as follows: http://auraphp.com/packages/3.x/Di/getting-started.html#1-1-1

Did you run `composer install`? Is `aura/di` even in your `composer.json` file? — Phil, Aug 16 '17 at 04:50
@Phil no, in my composer.json only `{ "require": { "aura/router": "^3.1" } }` — fosh4455, Aug 16 '17 at 05:13
Why would you be surprised then that it can't find `\Aura\Di`? I suggest you start with `composer require aura/di` — Phil, Aug 16 '17 at 05:16
@Phil is correct here. May be mark it as an answer ? Thank you. — Hari K T, Aug 17 '17 at 04:21

In order for the composer auto-loader to pick up \Aura\Di, the dependency needs to be managed by composer.

You can easily do this by executing

composer require aura/di

which will add the dependency to your composer.json file and register with the auto-loader.

If you have manually downloaded and installed aura/di, you can revert that.
