AngularJS pass variable from custom directive to template

Question

I made a custom directive:

js part:

angular.module("myDirectives", []).directive("ngShowbox", function(){
  return {
    restrict: "E",
    scope: {
      title: "="
    },
    template: "<a href='#' ng-click='show($event)'>{{title}}</a>",
    controller: function($scope, $element){
      $scope.show = function(event){
        // do something...
      }      
    }
  }
});

html part:

<ng-showbox title="whatToPutHere??"></ng-showbox>

I would like to pass some text from the title attribute, then my template will show the text. How can I make it?

Thank you very much :)

Use @ in directive scope:-

scope: {
      title: "@"
    },

Plunker for you :)

just a note, if you assign the value of title to a controller scope value, then you need to use title: "=". :), if you need just the string value, not as a scope value inside the title you can use title: "@"

Yup exactly :) "=" will give you two way binding power where as "@" just bind the string to the scope.
