Calling dataBind() for controller style igGrid about igniteui-angularjs HOT 1 CLOSED

Hi Julie,
You shouldn't need to call dataBind(), as long as you set the scope data object it should be enough to trigger the directive's watch and we will do that for you. Are you getting any error messages that can help us figure out the issue?

The Master/detail sample uses the same approach with a mocked service provider (source):

dataService.getAll().then(function(homes){
            $scope.homes = homes;
        }, function(error){
            $scope.error = error;
        });

While the options are not defined in the scope, the end result is the same as the grid ends up with $scope.homes as dataSource.

To answer the question anyway, calling angular.element() will return the same jQuery(Lite) wrapped DOM element which is equivalent of $(".selector"), so calling any widget method/option is standardly done as parameter like .igGrid( "dataBind" );

P.S.: In the scope(controller) column settings like headerText should also follow the API column options, although those are definately not causing the entire grid to stop working.
