Here’s a simple snippet to pass a PHP variable from a controller ( or whatever magento file ) to a block, using the createBlock() method.
When you call a block:
1
2
3
4
5
| <?php
$this->getLayout()->createBlock('module/template')
->setData('key', 'value')
->setTemplate('mediarepository/latest.phtml')->toHtml();
|
with the setData() method you’ll be able to acces your variable with:
(function () {
'use strict';
anchors.options = {
placement: 'left',
visible: 'hover',
icon: '¶'
};
anchors.add('h2');
anchors.add('h3');
anchors.add('h4');
})();
