Sparks\Shield\Authentication\Authentication::__construct(): Argument #1 ($config) must be of type Sparks\Shield\Config\Auth, Config\Auth given

Copy the Auth.php and AuthGroups.php from vendor/lonnieezell/codeigniter-shield/src/Config/ into your project's config folder and update the namespace to Config.
https://github.com/lonnieezell/codeigniter-shield/blob/develop/docs/0%20-%20install.md#intial-setup

But if I change the namespace, the following error occurs.

Sparks\Shield\Authentication\Authentication::__construct(): Argument #1 ($config) must be of type Sparks\Shield\Config\Auth, Config\Auth given

I'm not sure how to fix this.

My solution.

Good catch. Thanks.

My first attempt to fix was to change it to require just BaseConfig, but Stan didn't like that (rightfully so).

So I have updated the docs for this. At some point this could be handled by a CLI script to get everything setup correctly.
