4,180 PointsIt says that console.log should be called within my render function, which it is.
I still have trouble understanding what exactly I'm supposed to log to the console. This is very unclear to me and after rewatching the video a couple of times, it's still not very clear. Sorry for the inconvenience.
angular.module('myApp', [])
.controller('myController', function($scope) {
$scope.user = {
name: 'Alex'
};
})
.directive('myDirective', function () {
return {
require: 'ngModel',
priority: 1,
link: function ($scope, $element, $attrs, ngModelCtrl) {
// YOUR CODE HERE
ngModelCtrl.$render = function(){
console.log($viewValue);
}
}
}
});
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="myApp">
<head>
<title>Angular.js</title>
<script src="js/angular.js"></script>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</head>
<body ng-controller="myController">
<p>Hello {{user.name}}</p>
<input type="text" ng-model="user.name" />
<div my-directive ng-model="user.name"></div>
</body>
</html>

Courses Plus Student 17,771 PointsYou're super close. $viewValue is not a standalone variable. It is attached to the ngModelCtrl. So in referencing it, use dot notation to access that property from ngModelCtrl. Hint: console.log(ngModelCtrl.____________ )

4,180 PointsI'm sorry, do you mean I should have understood it without any problems? I guess I must have missed something in that case, sorry.

4,180 PointsThanks, that worked, sadly I have no idea how I was supposed to get to that conclusion. I'll keep doing the course and see if things start to clear up.
