What is the right way to include custom function in Sage 9?

As having all my files in the same app/ directory was a bit limited, here’s what I’ve done to load all PHP files from a given directory and its sub-directories.
It means you don’t care about loading order. If you still want to use this but need some files before the custom directory files are loaded, use the array solution provided.

  1. Add a new auto-loaded file to my composer.json
"autoload": {
    "psr-4": {
      "App\\": "app/"
    },
    "files": [
      "app/lib-autoload.php"
    ]
  }
  1. Create the app/lib-autoload.php

glob_recursive needed to load recursively (source)

if ( ! function_exists('glob_recursive'))
{
    // Does not support flag GLOB_BRACE
    function glob_recursive($pattern, $flags = 0)
    {
        $files = glob($pattern, $flags);
        foreach (glob(dirname($pattern).'/*', GLOB_ONLYDIR|GLOB_NOSORT) as $dir)
        {
            $files = array_merge($files, glob_recursive($dir.'/'.basename($pattern), $flags));
        }
        return $files;
    }
}

//$files = glob(__DIR__ . '/lib/**/*.php'); //will only load first level sub-dir
$files = glob_recursive(__DIR__ . '/lib/*.php');
if ($files === false) {
    throw new RuntimeException("Failed to glob for function files");
}
foreach ($files as $file) {
    require_once $file;
}
unset($file, $files);
  1. all PHP files within app/lib/ directories and sub-directories will be loaded.
