It seems that I'm struggling with an issue trying to pass a variable to the class file, but tells me the $db is undefined when I call the User::getUser(). Any ideas how can I achieve passing the $db that is defined in the bootstrap.inc.php and then using it in the auto loaded class file User?
In my bootstrap.inc.php file which it's included in the index.php file.
<?php
# Autoload the classes
spl_autoload_register("autoload");
# Autoload Composer Libraries
require_once('composer/autoload.php');
# Set up the database connection
$db = \ParagonIE\EasyDB\Factory::create(
'mysql:host='.DB_HOST.';dbname='.DB_NAME,
DB_USERNAME,
DB_PASSWORD );
# Function to load the required classes files
function autoload($class_name)
{
# Load classes...
if(file_exists(CLASS_PATH.DS.$class_name.'.class.php'))
{
require CLASS_PATH.DS.$class_name.'.class.php';
return;
}
}
And then in my User.class.php file, I called the getUser function, and then it said undefined variable $db.
<?php
class User
{
public static function getUser()
{
$userData = $db->row("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?", 1);
return $userData;
}
}

I appreciate any solutions!
