Angular: calling controller function inside a directive link function using &

by

Are you passing the arguments inside {}s? E.g., inside the directive’s link function, you’ll want to call the method like so: scope.someCtrlFn({arg1: someValue});

<div my-directive callback-fn="ctrlFn(arg1)"></div>

app.directive('myDirective', function() {
    return {
        scope: { someCtrlFn: '&callbackFn' },
        link: function(scope, element, attrs) {
            scope.someCtrlFn({arg1: 22});
        },
    }
});

function MyCtrl($scope) {
    $scope.ctrlFn = function(test) {
        console.log(test);
    }
}

Fiddle.
