Laravel 5 Class 'App\Http\Controllers\Cookie' not found

Question

I am trying to create a cookie in laravel 5 with

$cookie = Cookie::make('name', 'value');

in controller and i want to attach to the view. But it shows the error

Class 'App\Http\Controllers\Cookie' not found.

How to solve this problem ?

Answer 1

Most Class not found are usually caused my incorrect namespace:

try

$cookie = \Cookie::make('name', 'value');

or add use Cookie; in your class like so:

<?php namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Cookie;

UserController extends Controller{

}
