How to define an angular directive inside an angular directive's link function?
- by user2316667
I want to create an angular directive inside of a link function, however; the directive created is not able to be compiled.
See this JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/v47uvsj5/5/
Uncommenting this directive in the global space works as expected.
app.directive('test', function () {
return {
templateUrl: 'myform', // wraps script tag with id 'myform'
restrict: 'E',
require: "^mydir",
replace: true,
scope: {
},
link: function (scope, element, attrs, mydirCtrl) {
scope.remove = function () {
element.remove();
mydirCtrl.remove();
}
}
}
});
But the exact same code inside the link function fails.
The reason I want to do this is because I want the user (who is going to be myself) to be able to provide only a script tag's id via an id attribute to my main directive which will in turn create a 'wrapper' directive with a 'remove' method. This way, in the script tag, all one needs to do is implement the 'remove'.
