How to register custom class for using in controller method?-CodePudding

There is a static class with a method which returns data by type:

class FactoryProfileModel {
    static function get($type) {
        if ($type === Type.Doctor) return DoctorModel::where("user_id", 1);
        if ($type === Type.Patient) return PatientModel::where("user_id", 1);
     } 
}

How and where to register such a class FactoryProfileModel to use it in the controller method where $request->type arrives.

May be better use this as helper function?

To use this class in a controller method, you can try this.

$profile = FactoryProfileModel::get($request->type);

You don't need to register the FactoryProfileModel class in any specific way to use it in your controller method.

Just create a folder inside your APP Folder and name a file like your class name. After you created it you can USE is it in your Controller by importing it with "use App\Classes\FPDF". After you can call it easy with $classInstance = new Class();
