Tried everything.
angular.module('myApp', [])
.controller('myController', function($scope) {
$scope.user = {
name: 'Alex'
};
})
.directive('myDirective', function () {
return {
require: 'ngModel',
priority: 1,
link: function ($scope, $element, $attrs, ngModelCtrl) {
// YOUR CODE HERE
ngModelCtrl.$render = function () {
$console.log
}
}
}
});
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="myApp">
<head>
<title>Angular.js</title>
<script src="js/angular.js"></script>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</head>
<body ng-controller="myController">
<p>Hello {{user.name}}</p>
<input type="text" ng-model="user.name" />
<div my-directive ng-model="user.name"></div>
</body>
</html>

You are close. You need to cache the input value from $viewValue into a variable. Then you can pass the input, now in a variable named contents to the console.
ngModelCtrl.$render = function() {
var contents = ngModelCtrl.$viewValue;
console.log(contents);
}

var myfunc = function() {
console.log("Hello, world!");
}
