The following examples illustrate PSR-4 compliant code:
<?php
/**
* An example of a project-specific implementation.
*
* After registering this autoload function with SPL, the following line
* would cause the function to attempt to load the \Foo\Bar\Baz\Qux class
* from /path/to/project/src/Baz/Qux.php:
*
* new \Foo\Bar\Baz\Qux;
*
* @param string $class The fully-qualified class name.
* @return void
*/
spl_autoload_register(function ($class) {
// project-specific namespace prefix
$prefix = 'Foo\\Bar\\';
// base directory for the namespace prefix
$base_dir = __DIR__ . '/src/';
// does the class use the namespace prefix?
$len = strlen($prefix);
if (strncmp($prefix, $class, $len) !== 0) {
// no, move to the next registered autoloader
return;
}
// get the relative class name
$relative_class = substr($class, $len);
// replace the namespace prefix with the base directory, replace namespace
// separators with directory separators in the relative class name, append
// with .php
$file = $base_dir . str_replace('\\', '/', $relative_class) . '.php';
// if the file exists, require it
if (file_exists($file)) {
require $file;
}
});The following is an example class implementation to handle multiple namespaces:
<?php
namespace Example;
/**
* An example of a general-purpose implementation that includes the optional
* functionality of allowing multiple base directories for a single namespace
* prefix.
*
* Given a foo-bar package of classes in the file system at the following

*
* /path/to/packages/foo-bar/
* src/
* Baz.php # Foo\Bar\Baz
* Qux/
* Quux.php # Foo\Bar\Qux\Quux
* tests/
* BazTest.php # Foo\Bar\BazTest
* Qux/
* QuuxTest.php # Foo\Bar\Qux\QuuxTest
*
* ... add the path to the class files for the \Foo\Bar\ namespace prefix
* as follows:
*
* <?php
* // instantiate the loader
* $loader = new \Example\Psr4AutoloaderClass;
*
* // register the autoloader
* $loader->register();
*
* // register the base directories for the namespace prefix
* $loader->addNamespace('Foo\Bar', '/path/to/packages/foo-bar/src');
* $loader->addNamespace('Foo\Bar', '/path/to/packages/foo-bar/tests');
*

* \Foo\Bar\Qux\Quux class from /path/to/packages/foo-bar/src/Qux/Quux.php:
*
* <?php
* new \Foo\Bar\Qux\Quux;
*
* The following line would cause the autoloader to attempt to load the
* \Foo\Bar\Qux\QuuxTest class from /path/to/packages/foo-bar/tests/Qux/QuuxTest.php:
