1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 |
<?php namespace Vendor\Extension\Helper; class Data extends \Magento\Framework\App\Helper\AbstractHelper { protected $layoutFactory; public function __construct(\Magento\Framework\View\LayoutFactory $layoutFactory) { $this->layoutFactory = $layoutFactory; } public function getPhtmlFile() { $layout = $this->layoutFactory->create(); $blockOption = $layout->createBlock("Vendor\Extension\Block\Extension")->setTemplate("Vendor_Extension::extension.phtml"); return $blockOption->toHtml(); } } |
Step 2: Now you need to add the Extension.php file in the following path:
app\code\Vendor\Extension\Block
And add the below code
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
<?php namespace Vendor\Extension\Block; class Extension extends \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template { public function getDisplayText() { return "This is display text"; } } |
