How to integrate PHPMailer with Codeigniter 3

Question

Hi, I am trying to use the PHPMailer library from GitHUB in my Codeigniter application.

I downloaded the code and unzipped it in a folder application\library. So I have a folder called vendor, inside which is the source code of PHPMailer.

Now I created a file with the name Bizmailer_Controller.php.

<?php defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');

/**
* 
*/
class Bizmailer_Controller extends CI_Controller
{

    public function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct();

        require "vendor\phpmailer\phpmailer\PHPMailerAutoload";
        $this->Bizmailer = new PHPMailer();
        //Set the required config parameters
        $this->Bizmailer->isSMTP();                                      // Set mailer to use SMTP
        $this->Bizmailer->Host = 'smtp1.example.com;smtp2.example.com';  // Specify main and backup SMTP servers
        $this->Bizmailer->SMTPAuth = true;                               // Enable SMTP authentication
        $this->Bizmailer->Username = '[e-mail]';                 // SMTP username
        $this->Bizmailer->Password = 'secret';                           // SMTP password
        $this->Bizmailer->SMTPSecure = 'tls';                            // Enable TLS encryption, 'ssl' also accepted
        $this->Bizmailer->Port = 465;    
        //return $api;
    }
}

Now in my controllers I am trying to load it like this:

$this->load->library('Bizmailer');
$mail = new Bizmailer();

And I get this error:

An error has been detected.

Unable to load requested class: Bizmailer

Therefore, please explain to me how I can download or integrate this library in Codeigniter.
