Fatal Error PHP Class not found but it's included in the project

Question

I'm trying to test Stripe Checkout on my virtual server but when i try return this error:

Fatal error: Class 'Stripe\Customer' not found in /home/user/public_html/charge.php on line 8

As suggested here I verified if the file ./config.php was existing with:

var_dump(file_exists("./config.php"));

It returns bool(true) being a PhP beginner im not sure what i'm doing wrong.

charge.php

<?php
  require_once('./config.php');
  
  var_dump(file_exists("./config.php"));
  
  $token  = $_POST['stripeToken'];

  $customer = \Stripe\Customer::create(array(
      'email' => 'customer@example.com',
      'source'  => $token
  ));

  $charge = \Stripe\Charge::create(array(
      'customer' => $customer->id,
      'amount'   => 2000,
      'currency' => 'usd'
  ));

  echo '<h1>Successfully charged $20.00!</h1>';


?>

config.php

<?php
require_once('vendor/stripe/init.php');
$stripe = array(
  secret_key      => getenv('sk_test_PidozakrX1NIEf8YM9TBDMl8'),
  publishable_key => getenv('pk_test_pCzekEHR4Io5YFJhrzFE7Koe')
);
\Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey($stripe['secret_key']);
?>

Directory:

>public_html
   >vendor
       >stripe
          >lib
              >Charge.php
              >Customer.php
              >Stripe.php

UPDATE Okay so with changes suggested by Matthew getting new error. But i'm not sure where should I set the API key Stripe::setApiKey(<API-KEY>)? It's aleady set in config.php...

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Stripe\Error\Authentication' with message 'No API key provided.

@MatthewArkin: thank you for trying! Still return same error... `Fatal error: Class 'Stripe\Customer' not found` — Bic Mitchun, Jul 04 '16 at 01:27
`\vendor\stripe\lib\Customer::create` is not how you access namespaced classes - it should be what Matthew posted above. — scrowler, Jul 04 '16 at 01:36
getenv('sk_test_PidozakrX1NIEf8YM9TBDMl8') also looks odd, the name you pass to getenv should be the name of the environment variable eg getenv("stripe_secret_key") would return the value of the environment variable with the name stripe_secret_key — Matthew Arkin, Jul 04 '16 at 01:38
and assuming you're on any new version of the Stripe api you should be doing require_once('vendor/stripe/init.php'); — Matthew Arkin, Jul 04 '16 at 01:39
@MatthewArkin: Thanks a lot. We're moving up! I have changed the new path. Now i'm getting new error... I will update my post. — Bic Mitchun, Jul 04 '16 at 03:12

I'm not sure but it looks like due to the composer,

If you haven't check path yet , please first look them in composer.json

{
"autoload": {
    "psr-0": {
        "Sub-folder/path": "class's parent directory "
    }
}

NOTE: If the problem occurs due to this one , You should re-install websocket
OR you can arrange path to this structure

Yesterday I emailed stripe support. I could of never figured the answer out...! So turns out the issue here is the way I've setup the API keys in config.php. This code will not do what we think... It's trying to retrieve an environment variable set with the variable name as the API key which will just return an empty string...

config.php

<?php
require_once('vendor/stripe/init.php');
$stripe = array(
  secret_key      => getenv('sk_test_PidozakrX1NIEf8YM9TBDMl8'),
  publishable_key => getenv('pk_test_pCzekEHR4Io5YFJhrzFE7Koe')
);
\Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey($stripe['secret_key']);
?>

should be

<?php
require_once('vendor/stripe/init.php');
$stripe = array(
  secret_key      => ('sk_test_PidozakrX1NIEf8YM9TBDMl8'),
  publishable_key => ('pk_test_pCzekEHR4Io5YFJhrzFE7Koe')
);
\Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey($stripe['secret_key']);
?>

Basically, just remove getenv after each arrow. For me it works! The customer is created and the amount is charged! Nothing fancy. Simple solution.
