Yii2 passing variable in main.php?

Question

Yii

Hello.
How can I pass an array received from the database to main.php?
Not in index.php, but in the template. It is necessary to display information in the sidebar, which will be on all pages.
Thanks in advance.

Answer 2

In the parent controller (which all controllers inherit)

public $data;
public function init(){
   $this->data=[Выбираем то, что нужно]
}

And in the template you call
$this->data;
