Not finding the Hello World section in the Slim User Guide. My screen does not look like the one in the video. Guessing site has been updated???
My code typed in:
<?php
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
date_default_timezone_set ('America/New_York');
//$log = new Monolog\Logger('name');
//$log->pushHandler(new Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler('app.txt', Monolog\Logger::WARNING));
//$log->addWarning('Oh Noes');
$app = new \Slim\Slim();
$app->get('hello/:name', function ($name) {
echo "Hello, $name";
});
$app->run();
getting error message on preview: atal error: Uncaught Error: Class 'Slim\Slim' not found in /home/treehouse/workspace/index.php:9 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in /home/treehouse/workspace/index.php on line 9

Courses Plus Student 9,236 PointsCorrect - slim is now in its version 3.x iteration.
There is documentation for slim 2.x on their site still, the best thing to do is in composer download and install slim 2.6 (as composer will let you select the version you want to use).
Then you should be able to follow along the tutorials. I think Hampton needs to update this one to 3.x as this would be awesome to have it up to date and learning on its current version.

7,028 PointsThank you for your attention. I was add "2.6" in composer.json; But it haven't still worked. Then I change my code for version 3.3 SLIM. And "Hello, friend" is working! Yahhoooo...
<?php
// Create and configure Slim app
$app = new \Slim\App;
// Define app routes
$app->get('/hello/{name}', function ($request, $response, $args) {
return $response->write("Hello " . $args['name']);
});
// Run app
$app->run();

Treehouse TeacherFor Slim 2, you need to make sure you also have the .htaccess file or /hello/name will give you a 404

7,028 PointsMike, I think version Slim 2.6 is better, because code string is shorter.
Carla Hiner
7,656 PointsThanks! Downloaded slim 2.6 and was able to follow instructions properly once I found the v 2 instructions too. Would be nice to have a type or something on video saying download 2.6 not most recent version.

7,028 PointsHi Carla. Can you help me. How you can change version of SLIM? I have had this problem too.
Alena Holligan
Treehouse Teacherchange your composer.json to remove the "^". The line should show
"slim/slim": "2.6"
Baur Alzhanov
7,028 PointsPages are working. If I include /hello/name I can see "Hello name". When I didn't include anything so I saw message "Page Not Found".
Alena Holligan
Treehouse Teacheryou don't have a route for $app->get('/') so only /hello/Baur will work right not continue on with the course and you should figure it out.

7,028 PointsIn the next stage "Routing For Our Project" I wrote this code:
<?php
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Almaty');
//$log = new Logger('name');
//$log->pushHandler(new StreamHandler('app.txt', Logger::WARNING));
//$log->addWarning('Oh noes');
$app = new \Slim\App;
// Define app routes
$app->get('/', function () {
echo 'Hello, this is the home page.';
});
$app->get('/contact', function () {
echo 'Fell free to contact us.';
});
// Run app
$app->run();

4,127 PointsWe really need new videos using Slim 3.
Mike Ribera
4,127 PointsForget Slim 3, 2.6 is really better - and it's a shame.
