How to use "ng-repeat" within template of a directive in Angular JS?

Question

I'm new to Angular JS and I am trying to create a custom directive that will be used as below:

<div linkedlist listcolumns="{{cashAccountsColumns}}"></div>

Corrps. controller will be:

$scope.cashAccountsColumns = [
  {"field": "description", "title": "Description"},
  {"field": "owner", "title":"Owner"},
  {"field": "currentBalance", "title":"Current Balance" }
];

And the directive code is:

return {
      restrict : 'EA',
      transclude : false,
      templateUrl : 'html/linkedlist.html',
      scope: {
         listcolumns: "@"
      },
      link : function(scope, element, attrs) {
      }
}

template is:

<table class="box-table" width="100%">
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th scope="col" ng-repeat="column in listcolumns">
        {{column.title}}
      </th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
</table>

But this is not working. I'm not getting the value of column.title on screen instead too many rows as below are added to DOM:

<th ng-repeat="column in listcolumns" scope="col" class="ng-scope ng-binding"></th>

Passing an entire object with attribute will not work, you have to use dual way binding. Just change binding from @ to = and modify the HTML below to make it work:

changes to directive code:

// ...
scope: {
    listcolumns: "="
},
// ...

changes to template:

  <div linkedlist listcolumns="cashAccountsColumns"></div>
