No hint path defined for [xxx]

I'm trying to link in my package to a view also in the same package.
This is the file structure:

/report/src
/report/src/ReportServiceProvider.php
/report/src/views/test.blade.php
/report/src/SomeClass.php

In my ReportServiceProvider.php I specify the directory where the views should be loading from (like specified here):

public function boot()
{
    $this->loadViewsFrom(__DIR__.'/views', 'reports');
}

With the 'hint' reports, so I should be able to access them with view('reports::test')

Off course I add my ServiceProvider to /config/app.php's providers array like so:

....
Vendor\Report\ReportServiceProvider::class,
....

I load my package in composer as follows:

"autoload": {
  ....
  "psr-4": {
     "App\\": "app/",
     "Vendor\\Report\\": "packages/vendor/report/src"
  }
  ...
 }

But when I use the view('reports::test') in SomeClass.php i get the following error:

No hint path defined for [reports]

So somehow it cannot find the reports hint.... What am I missing here?

I think report is your package name,

Step 1: You must specify the package name inside the service provider

$this->loadViewsFrom(__DIR__.'/views', 'report');

Step 2: If you want to load the view

return view('packageName::Email.testmail'); //packageName is report, the actual path to my view is package/report/src/views/Email/testmail.blade.php

I had a similar issue for Laravel's default forgot-password functionality. Error No hint path defined for [emails]

Running php artisan optimize:clear fixed it for me.

I solved the error No hint path defined for [view] by putting the following code snippet on my service provider boot method of my package:

$this->loadViewsFrom(__DIR__.'/views', 'home');

Where home is my view file home.blade.php. As I am Laravel beginner, maybe in package builded type of coding in need to give the path of view files inside service provider.

You need to add the package' service provider in cofing/app.php

if you have your blades views in ...views/xxx, that is how you can specify it:

app('xxx')->addNamespace('mail', resource_path('views') . '/xxx');

If you're using infyomlabs/adminlte-templates package just add service provider in config/app.php as shown below:

'providers' => [
    // ...
    InfyOm\AdminLTETemplates\AdminLTETemplatesServiceProvider::class,
    // ...
],
