Wordpress, calling a class method from a template part

I'm trying to call a method defined in a custom plugin from a custom template part.

In my plugin, I've defined a class, and initiate it via $users_activity = new OBJ_user_activity();.

The following works while in main template (author.php, page.php) ...

$users_activity->get_currently_online_users_count();

... But doesn't work with a custom template part. Instead I'm getting a the following error:

Call to undefined variable $users_activity.

Would anyone know how to correctly call a method from a custom template part ?

Get_template_part() allows a 3rd parameter to pass in variables.

Based on your question:

get_template_part( 'templates/app', 'aside', array( 'users_activity' => $users_activity ) );

... and from the template part:

echo $args['users_activity']->get_currently_online_users_count();
