wordpress - How to use woocommerce classes from a custom plugin that uses composer autoload

Question

Im using Composer autoload in my plugin to make it easier to manage all the files and classes instead of writing everysingle time require_once

However Im having trouble trying to access native woocommerce classes. My classes are defined with namespaces as for example:

<?php
namespace IncApi;

class RestClientApi
{
....
}

If I try to call a woocommerce class within this class for example:

<?php
namespace IncApi;

class RestClientApi
{

  public $example = new WC_product();

}

I get the error Class Inc/Api/WC_product not found I know what the error means, but I don't have idea how to use Woocommerce classes from my custom plugin, considering I'm using autoload and namespaces in my custom plugin classes.

UPDATE As requested I added my autoload configuration, it is pretty simple, Im just calling my /inc folder

"autoload": {
        "psr-4": {"Inc": "./inc"}
    }

In your plugin composer.json, add something like this (you adapt it to your needs):

    "autoload": {
        "psr-4": {
            "WooCommerceNamespace":"path/to/woocomerce/classes/folder"
        }
    },

Then run a

composer dump-autoload 

inside the composer.json folder.

Then add to your plugin file: use WooCommerceNamespaceWC and the WC class should now be available.

(if your WC.php file already has a namespace declaration, use that namespace in your psr-4 declaration).
