$params

This document explains calling a helper class passing $params for future use. The problem is, it doesn't mention where that $params is coming from. And what other data is available? Sovainfo (talk) 08:41, 6 May 2014 (CDT)

So there probably should be a sentence saying $params is generated by us automatically. As this is a "simple" module tutorial - I really want to avoid going into the fact this is automatically generated by the JModuleHelper. I'd rather just say the thing with the params is created magically for you to manipulate. --Wilsonge (talk) 18:43, 6 May 2014 (CDT)
Why would you want to avoid mentioning JModuleHelper::renderModule. The first thing that comes to mind is how should I know $params is available? Where to look for the other variables availabe. Or state them, would be nice to know $app is available!. Sovainfo (talk) 03:49, 7 May 2014 (CDT)
