I am stuck in the Eloquent ORM in Laravel Basics

I am using larval 5 as I follow the course Laravel Basics. I got an error "FatalErrorException in TodoListController.php line 21: Class 'App\Http\Controllers\TodoList' not found" I couldn't figure out this error. Please help me solve this problem.

I created the models file inside app file. inside models, I placed TodoList.php.

in TodoList.php <?php

class TodoList extends Eloquent {}

in TodoListController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request; use App\Http\Requests; use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;

class TodoListController extends Controller { /** * Display a listing of the resource. * * @return Response */ public function index() { $todo_lists = TodoList::all(); $todo_lists = \App\TodoList::all(); return view('todos.index')->with("todo_lists", $todo_lists); }

You can solve this two different ways and I'll demonstrate both below. Both changes involve your controller as your model is fine. Regardless of which solution you decide to use, you should not assign the variable $todo_lists twice.

<?php namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Requests;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;

use App\ToDolist; // Alias your model so that it can be used inside of your controller

class TodoListController extends Controller {

    /** * Display a listing of the resource. * * @return Response */
    public function index()
    {
        $todo_lists = TodoList::all();
        return view('todos.index')->with("todo_lists", $todo_lists);
    }
}

Or

<?php namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Requests;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;

class TodoListController extends Controller {

    /** * Display a listing of the resource. * * @return Response */
    public function index()
    {
        $todo_lists = \App\TodoList::all();
        return view('todos.index')->with("todo_lists", $todo_lists);
    }
}

Thank you, I noticed that I had a . instead of a , on the last line of your second solution!
