How to call a method defined in an AngularJS directive?

Question

I have a directive, here is the code :

.directive(\'map\', function() {
    return {
        restrict: \'E\',
        replace: true,
        template: \'<

You can tell the method name to directive to define which you want to call from controller but without isolate scope,

angular.module("app", [])
  .directive("palyer", [
    function() {
      return {
        restrict: "A",
        template:'
',
        link: function($scope, element, attr) {
          if (attr.toPlay) {
            $scope[attr.toPlay] = function(name) {
              $scope.text = name + " playing...";
            }
          }
        }
      };
    }
  ])
  .controller("playerController", ["$scope",
    function($scope) {
      $scope.clickPlay = function() {
        $scope.play('AR Song');
      };
    }
  ]);

.player{
  border:1px solid;
  padding: 10px;
}

  

    
Click play button to play
