In angular formly, how to add ng-click or ng-change to a checkbox?

Question

I am using angular-formly, I am trying to add the normal angular events to a checkbox but no joy. Here is what I have:

{
    type: "checkbox",
    key: "is_active",
    templateOptions: {
        type: "",
        label: "Is Active"
    }
}

I looked over the documentations over and over and I can not find the solution. Please show where to add ng-click or ng-change in the above.

I hoped something like the below would work:

{
    type: "checkbox",
    key: "is_active",
    templateOptions: {
        type: "",
        label: "Is Active"
    },
    ngClick : "functionName"
}

where functionName is a function inside the controller that renders the form. So my functions will always be in my controller, I just need to define or pass the event to the checkbox

It's been awhile since I've messed with formly but I believe this should do

{
    type: "checkbox",
    key: "is_active",
    templateOptions: {
        type: "",
        label: "Is Active",
        onClick: yourControllerFunctionHere  //notice this isn't a string but a reference to your controller function
    }        
}

This is referenced in the ngModelAttrsTemplateManipulator documentation. I love formly but the documentation is hard to navigate
