Upload does not work with Isolated scope in a directive

[gottfrois]

Hey guys,

First of all, thanks for the great work you are putting into this lib, it's just amazing!

I'd like to extract the upload logic into a re-usable directive therefor with an isolated scope. Unfortunately as soon as I isolate the scope of the directive, upload does not work anymore.

I'm sure i'm missing something really trivial here so i'll just dump a plunker here. Any help or guidance would be much appreciated !

In app.js simply remove scope: {} to see it working again in web console.

Thanks,

This seems to be an angular-wide issue related to your use of isolated scope with the controllerAs syntax in a directive. See: angular/angular.js#7635

Thanks for pointing me in that direction but unfortunately, removing the controllerAs feature is still not uploading the file when isolating the scope. Any ideas?

More a work around, I forwared the files into the scope:

scope: {
    files: '='
}

Then watching the files:

$scope.$watch 'files', (files)->
  ...
