require "/vendor/avalara/avalara.php"

it does include the file does wasn't able to call the functions inside it.

Answer 1

I have used the avalara library. Extract the file and put the AvaTax and autoload foler in vendor. Add the a class file in model directory.

$base_path = str_replace("frontend", "", \Yii::$app->basePath);

require_once $base_path . 'vendor/avalara/vendor/autoload.php';

use Yii;

use AvaTax\Address;

use AvaTax\DetailLevel;

use AvaTax\GetTaxRequest;

use AvaTax\Line;

use AvaTax\TaxServiceSoap;

use AvaTax\ATConfig;

use AvaTax\CancelTaxRequest;

After that create custom functions and use them in controller.
