Angular JS observe on directive attribute

Question

How can angular js watch attributes on custom directive in order to accept angular values to be bind

Here is what I have so far:

<tile title="Sleep Duration" data-value="{{sleepHistory.averageSleepTime}}"/>

app.directive('tile', [function() {
    return {
        restrict: 'E',
        link: function(scope, element, attrs) {
            var title = attrs.title;

            attrs.$observe('dataValue', function(val) {
                var data = val;

                console.log(data);

                var dom =
                    "<div>" +
                    "<p>" + title + "</p>" +
                    "<p>" + data + "</p>" +
                    "</div";

                $(element).append($(dom.trim()));
            });
        }
    };
}]);

but the observed value is coming back as undefined

From https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/type/$compile.directive.Attributes:

all of these are treated as equivalent in Angular:

<span ng:bind="a" ng-bind="a" data-ng-bind="a" x-ng-bind="a">

So the attribute data-value normalizes to value

So, this is what you want:

attrs.$observe('value', function(val) {
