/**
 * Implements hook_menu().
 */
$items['illuminate_demo'] = array(
    'title'            => 'Demo Controller',
    'description'      => 'Demo using controller with Drupal',
    'access callback'  => 'user_access',
    'access arguments' => array('access content'),
    'page callback'    => 'illuminate_controller',
    'page arguments'   => array('Drupa\illuminate_demo\Controller\DemoController::index'),
