Set Variables for a template

I haven't got so much skill, but I tried to make a Game Serverstatus Page but i didn't found something to assign any variable to the template :o

isn't this right? : WCF::getTPL()->assign('test', 'My Test Text');

Sorry

ok thanks for your fast reply, and then i get them how? (in the template) with {$item1} and {$item2} ?

ah okay thanks unfortunately i have to go off for today, will try it tomorrow

I tested but it doesn't work. ...don't know what im doing wrong.

if I understood it, then in the class i generate the wanted content and in the template i can make the output.

I tried this:

<?php
// wcf imports
require_once(WCF_DIR.'lib/page/AbstractPage.class.php');




/**
 * Minecraft ServerStatus
 *
 * @author      Sorry
 * @copyright   fightcraft.de
 * @package     no
 * @license     ask admin@fightcraft.de
 */
class ServerStatusPage extends AbstractPage {
    // system
    public $templateName = 'serverstatus';

    function __construct() {
      parent::__construct();
      //$error = 'error';
      //$item1 = 'item1';
      //$item2 = 'item2';

      $item1 = 'test';
      $item2 = 'test';

      WCF::getTPL()->assign(array(
            'item1' => $item1,
            'item2' => $item2
      ));
    }
}

and this:

<?php
// wcf imports
require_once(WCF_DIR.'lib/page/AbstractPage.class.php');




/**
 * Minecraft ServerStatus
 *
 * @author      Sorry
 * @copyright   fightcraft.de
 * @package     no
 * @license     ask admin@fightcraft.de
 */
class ServerStatusPage extends AbstractPage {
    // system
    public $templateName = 'serverstatus';




      //$error = 'error';
      //$item1 = 'item1';
      //$item2 = 'item2';

      $item1 = 'test';
      $item2 = 'test';

      WCF::getTPL()->assign(array(
            'item1' => $item1,
            'item2' => $item2
      ));
}

both does not work...
but in the first code i get this error: PHP notice in file C:\xampp\htdocs\wbb\wcf\templates\compiled\48_0_1_serverstatus.php (47): Undefined index: item1, in the second i get this: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE, expecting T_FUNCTION in C:\xampp\htdocs\wbb\lib\page\ServerStatusPage.class.php on line 23
so the first one seem to be better....

okay thank you... and where can i look up which functions names (example: public function readData()) i have to use?

there shouldn't be any user input. so I think AbstractPage should be right.

i tried what you wrote but then i get this error:
error message: PHP notice in file C:\xampp\htdocs\wbb\lib\page\ServerStatusPage.class.php (32): Undefined variable: item1

again PHP notice in file C:\xampp\htdocs\wbb\lib\page\ServerStatusPage.class.php (32): Undefined variable: item1

I realised that with OOP too but it's seems to be much more complicated...

Quote from Alexander Ebert

It is not. If you're familiar with PHP you might know about variable scope, which means that you cannot access a variable defined outside a function unless you import it with "global" or pass it as argument. Try the example below, it works and shows you how to carry variables across different functions.

i knew that but i was a little bit confused...

thank you for your example. it works, i think a can work with it

it works very well now now i've only to improve the design.

and i've to try foreach in the template within an array ... i'll hope it works

if i want to do something like this:

{if isArray($infovalue)}{foreach from=infovalue item=value}{$value}<br/>{/foreach}{/if}

where do I have to place the funtion isArray? Or isn't that possible?

edit: or something like:

{if $infovalue|is_array{*}don't know if that exists{*}}{foreach from=infovalue item=value}{$value}<br/>{/foreach}{/if}

now i found another solution, i rewrote a small part of the php script and it works like i want now
