Variables in AngularJS directives with isolated scope

Question

I have directive with an isolated scope.

My scope looks like this:

scope: {
    amount: "=itemsPerPage",
}

My directive:

<list items-per-page="5"></list>

In my directive link function I have:

scope.test = scope.amount;
console.log(scope.test);
console.log(scope.amount);

But the output in console is:

undefined
5

I don't understand why? How does it work? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

1st one doesn't work because variable name is not correct

convert this

scope.test = scope.amout;

to

scope.test = scope.amount;
