Yii 2 Custom Module Namespace for Models

Is there anyway to change the namespace of the Module and use it as a namespace of my models?

I'm building a project using the basic app template of yii2.

What I want is to have a centralized namespace so that when I use the module into different project and reuse the models inside it, (either basic or advanced template), I won't have to change the namespace based on its root directory.

This will possible with Yii2 aliases.

first put all your models in your custom folder and set it alias name Yii config file. like below

// an alias of a file path
Yii::setAlias('@myFolder', '/path/to/foo');

finally, update your all models namespace based on this alias one time. like below.

namespace myFolder\models\xxx;

now you can copy this folder to any yii2 app and just set alias name, like above i mention.

Note:- directory will be independent like below and namespace will based on this directory.

folderName
   ->models
       ->xxxxx
       ->xxxxx
        .....
// and namespace should add all the models like below
namespace folderName\models;

// while using these models, you can import like below
import myFolder\xxxxxx;

You can edit the composer.json file find

{
   .....
 "autoload": {
        "psr-4": {
            "App\\": "src/" #<-key=namespace value=dirname
        }
  }
  ......
}

run composer update
