passing data from hook to view in codeigniter

Question

can i passing data from hook to view, If is it possible please explain.

for example

 $hook['post_controller_constructor'][] = array(
    'class'    => 'Varify_user',
    'function' => 'user_project',
    'filename' => 'varify_project.php',
    'filepath' => 'hooks',
    'params'   => array('')
);

i want send some array data varify_project.php(hook file) to view.

you mean you want to add some array data to your view ? like `$this->load->view('view',$data);` but `$data` is your array in hooks ? — Eko Junaidi Salam, Apr 18 '15 at 10:09

If you are wanting to add additional data at the time of loading the view, you could extend the core loader class like this:

application/core/MY_Loader.php

<?php
class MY_Loader extends CI_Loader {
    public function view($view, $vars = array(), $return = FALSE)
    {
        $vars['hello'] = "Hello World";
        return $this->_ci_load(array('_ci_view' => $view, '_ci_vars' => $this->_ci_object_to_array($vars), '_ci_return' => $return));
    }
}

the $vars['hello'] would then create a variable that you can use in any view called $hello and could be repeated to create any number of variables providing that you wanted them to be used on every page in your application.

Hi Ben thnx really.... good try by you... ... But splash58 proper explain the code. — Pavnish Yadav, Apr 18 '15 at 17:49
@PavnishYadav I don't see any explanation at that answer, only just codes.If you think this answer is also OK why not up vote it too? — Shaiful Islam, May 03 '15 at 21:30

I do so

application/core/MY_Loader.php

class MY_Loader extends CI_Loader {
    static $add_data = array();
    public function view($view, $vars = array(), $return = FALSE)
    {
       self::$add_data = array_merge($vars, self::$add_data);
       return $this->_ci_load(array('_ci_view' => $view, '_ci_vars' => $this->_ci_object_to_array(self::$add_data), '_ci_return' => $return));
    }
}

application/config/hooks.php

$hook['post_controller_constructor'] = function() {
    MY_Loader::$add_data['hello'] = "Hello World";
} ;

Consider editing your answer to add an explanation to why and how your code solves the problem. – Mephy Apr 18 '15 at 13:50

I agree with @Mephy, and the same feedback has been offered on your most recent contribution. Since no edit has been made on this question, I am downvoting, with apologies. If you would be willing to add a sentence or two, I will gladly remove the DV. – halfer Apr 27 '15 at 23:21
I am realy don't understand, what could be added to these some strings of simple code. it, seems, is clear for those, who works with Codeigniter's hooks – splash58 Apr 28 '15 at 09:24

I don't have enough rep to comment splash58's answer so I'm adding this here in case it is useful to someone.

Due to _ci_object_to_array() not being available anymore and sending an error the custom loader code should be (as it is in core since 3.1.3) :

class MY_Loader extends CI_Loader {

    static $add_data = array();

    public function view($view, $vars = array(), $return = FALSE)
    {
       self::$add_data = array_merge($vars, self::$add_data);
       return $this->_ci_load(array('_ci_view' => $view, '_ci_vars' => $this->_ci_prepare_view_vars(self::$add_data), '_ci_return' => $return));
    }
}
