I know this might defeat the purpose of using a viewModel but in some cases
i need to a DB check prior to calling the viewmodel ( access check for example) ..in that DB check I can already get some info i need for my view ( but not all) in such case if i can pass a variable to the viewmodel, it would save me another DB call. is there a way to pass a variable to the viewmodel? if not how do I minimize my DB calls , should i remove the viewmodel altogether?
thanks

After you create the ViewModel, you simply set variables on it like any other view:

$view = ViewModel::factory('foo');
$view->bar = 'BAR!!!';
$view->set('yay', 'YAAAYY');
