Angular-Datatables - How do I make table sortable using default settings?

Question

I am creating a plunker for another question but I cannot get angular-datatables to sort without configuration.

I have code from a project that responds to sorting when users click on header columns but it just does not want to sort in plunkr.

Am I missing any sort of configuration or overlooking anything?

How do I make the table sortable using default settings?

for some reason angular-datatables.js is calling isDataTable function while jquery.dataTables.js defines this function as fnIsDataTable, so, to solve it, just add

$.fn.dataTable.isDataTable = $.fn.dataTable.fnIsDataTable;

as your first line in your controller.

here is the error message:

VM892 angular.js:9563TypeError: $.fn.dataTable.isDataTable is not a function
  at Object.renderDataTable (VM1134 angular-datatables.js:753)
  at Object.hideLoadingAndRenderDataTable (VM1134 angular-datatables.js:773)
  at VM1134 angular-datatables.js:910
  at VM892 angular.js:13777
  at completeOutstandingRequest (VM892 angular.js:4236)

Chrome developer tool or FireFox firebug, under console section, then I checked cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/datatables/1.9.4/… and rawgit.com/l-lin/angular-datatables/dev/dist/… files
