Hello Wim, my name is Sonja and I stumbled upon this great librabry. I am trying to get it running but unfortunately I get stuck. The installation is finished, the database tables are updated, but using the code in my controller gives me the error: "Class "App\Http\Controllers\GeographicalCoordinates" not found". Did I miss part of the installation? Hope it is okay to pist here :)

[WimDeMeester]

You should give it the geographical coordinates, so the coordinates of your observing location on earth.

$coords_Utrecht = ['latitude' => 52.0919255, 'longitude' => 5.1229572];
$carbonDate = Carbon::now();

$coords = new GeographicalCoordinates($coords_Utrecht ['latitude'], $coords_Utrecht ['longitude']);
$astrolib = new AstronomyLibrary($carbonDate, $coords);

Error: microsecond cannot be changed to float value 638140.38487707, integer expected

$carbonDate = Carbon::createFromFormat('Y-m-d', $i['dateofbirth']);
Error: microsecond cannot be changed to float value -273403.10190549, integer expected

Hi @SonjaNube,
There was indeed a problem when using Carbon::now(). I always constructed my date myself, and I never used milliseconds, which Carbon::now() does.
I have created a new version of the library (6.2.1). Can you update to the newest version and re-test?

[SonjaNube]

can I email you? I get a lot of errors with composer update, but I have some other things going wrong to, so no clue what is from your tool, and not keen to post all here ;)

[WimDeMeester]

Yes, you can! Can you send me your email-address?
