Any idea why the following code won’t produce any output when there are existing Template Variables?

	$tvCriteria = $modx->newQuery('modElement', array(
		'class_key' => 'modTemplateVar'
	));
	$tvVars =  $modx->getCollection('modElement', $tvCriteria);
	foreach ($tvVars as $tvVar) { 
	echo 'test result set';
	$test =  $tvVar->toArray();
	print_r($test);
	}

Use modTemplateVar as the class name, omit the class_key reference - this is different than modStaticResource, as modTemplateVar (and modSnippet, modChunk, etc) are stored in different tables and are different types of relationships - they are extended classes moreso than derivatives.

Your code would look like so:

$tvVars =  $modx->getCollection('modTemplateVar');
foreach ($tvVars as $tvVar) { 
	echo 'test result set';
	$test =  $tvVar->toArray();
	print_r($test);
}
