<?php
use Phalcon\Loader;
// Creates the autoloader
$loader = new Loader();
// Register some namespaces
$loader->registerNamespaces(
    [
        "Example\\Base"    => "vendor/example/base/",
        "Example\\Adapter" => "vendor/example/adapter/",
        "Example"          => "vendor/example/",
    ]
);
// Register autoloader
$loader->register();
// Requiring this class will automatically include file vendor/example/adapter/Some.php
$adapter = new \Example\Adapter\Some();
