How to pass string to a function inside a directive in AngularJS?

Question

This is the templating function for the custom directive which I have created. The string str passed to the function obtainDynamicField(str) is coming as undefined. Also str is a string and not a variable.

 function getTemplate() {
            return

'           <td>' +
            '       <div class="inner">' +
            '                   <input type="text" ' +
            '                               class="form-control" ' +
            '                               data-dynamic-field="obtainDynamicField(str)"'+
            '                               data-ng-model="formdata.product" >' +
            '                           </input>' +
            '                       </div>' +
            '           </td>' +

I am struggling for the past 2-3 hours in this. I think I need to escape out the str which I am unable to think so far on how to achieve it. Kindly suggest.

Sorry, maybe I misunderstood the question, but you need to pass a string? So something like this? 'data-dynamic-field="obtainDynamicField(\'str\')"'? — rpadovani

You just need to escape the ' around the string:

'data-dynamic-field="obtainDynamicField(\'str\')"'
