Loading a block type by its handle

Block types are objects in concrete5 just like most things. This means that they have IDs in the database, as well as human-readable handles. In this recipe, we will load the instance of the block type that we created in the first recipe of this chapter.

Getting ready

We will need a place to run some arbitrary code. We will rely on /config/site_post.php once again to execute some random code. This recipe also assumes that a block with a handle of hello_world exists in your concrete5 site. Feel free to adjust that handle as needed.

How to do it...

The steps for loading a block type by its handle are as follows:

Open /config/site_post.php in your preferred code editor.
Define the handle of the block to load:
```
$handle = 'hello_world';
```

Load the block by its handle:

$block = BlockType::getByHandle($handle);

Dump the contents of the block to make sure it loaded correctly:
```
print_r($block);
exit;
```

How it works...

concrete5 will simply query the database for you when a handle is provided. It will then return a BlockType object that contains several methods and properties that can be useful in development.
