Get list of {} templates from String [PHP]

I want to get the template words in a string. Template in the sense of words in {} inside a string. I am adding here a code to explain what I want exactly.

$string = "Hi {username}, Here is your {password}";

function get_template_variables($string)
{

    ....
    ....
    return array();
}

$result = get_template_variables($string);
print_r($result);


array[
    0 => username,
    1 => password
    ]

I hope you understand what I need. I need the definition program to be used inside the get_template_variables($string) method

function get_template_variables($string) {
    preg_match_all('/{([^}]+)}/', $string, $matches);
    return $matches[1];
}

preg_match_all('/{.*}/U' , $string  , $a );

where $result will be

array(1) {
  [0]=>
  array(2) {
    [0]=>
    string(10) "{username}"
    [1]=>
    string(10) "{password}"
  }
}

You can do:

function get_template_variables($string) {

    if(preg_match_all('/\{(.*?)\}/',$string,$m)) {
        return $m[1]
    }
    return array();
}
