The document provides an overview of AngularJS directives, detailing their roles, scope types (shared vs. isolate), and examples of common directives. It includes technical explanations on directive creation, data binding, and DOM manipulation. The document also mentions resources for further learning and promotional offers for video courses.

• Element directives
<my-dir></my-dir>
• CSS class directives
<span class="my-dir: exp;"></span>
• Comment directives
<!-- directive: my-dir exp -->

scope

11. angular.module('moduleName')
.directive('myDirective', function () {
return {
restrict: 'EA', //E = element, A = attribute, C = class, M = comment
scope: {
//@ reads the attribute string value,
//= provides two-way binding,
//& works with functions
title: '@'
},

12. Agenda

13. Shared Scope
Parent Scope
Child Scope

14. Isolate Scope

15. Parent Scope
Child Scope
Wall Blocks Parent Scope

16. Controller
$scope.customers=[];
Depends on parent scope
$scope.customers=[];
Directive
Shared
Controller
$scope.customers=[];
Isolated from parent scope
$scope.customers=[];
$scope.isolated = true;
Directive
Not Shared
Shared Scope Isolate Scope

17. Shared Scope Directive Example
var app = angular.module('myModule', []);
app.controller('Controller', ['$scope', function ($scope) {
$scope.customer = {
name: 'David',
street: '1234 Anywhere St.'
};
}]);
app.directive('sharedScope', function () {
return {
template: 'Name: {{customer.name}} Street: {{customer.street}}'
};
});
Scope is inherited
<div shared-scope></div>

18. Isolating Scope in Directives
angular.module('myModule')
.directive('isolateScope', function () {
return {
scope: {}, //isolate scope
template: 'Name: {{customer.name}} Street: ' +
'{{customer.street}}'
};
});
<div isolate-scope></div>
No data will display!

19. Hi, I'm Dan
String with one-way binding
@
$scope.first='James';
Directive can access a string value
scope: { name: '@' }
Directive
@ isolate scope property
<my-directive name="{{first}}" />

20. Hi, I'm Dan
No, you're Jim
Bi-directional Binding
=
$scope.person={name:'Dan'};
Two-way binding created
scope: { customer: '=' }
Directive
= isolate scope property
<my-directive customer="person" />

21. Call me back at: 123-1234
Calling 123-1234
Function Callback
&
$scope.click=function() { };
Can invoke external function
scope: { action: '&' }
Directive
& isolate scope property
<my-directive action="click()" />

22. @ Bind a local scope property to the value of a DOM attribute. The result
is always a string.
scope: { name: '@' }  <my-directive name="{{name}}" />
= Creates a bi-directional binding between a local scope property and the
parent scope property.
scope: { customer: '=' }  <my-directive
customer="person" />
& Execute an expression/function in the context of the parent scope.
scope: { click: '&' }  <my-directive click="click()" />
