You were very close to the answer. The only thing you missed out was calling the someFunc() function on button using ng-click.
The other issue is, in your controller the function should be $scope.someFunc() and not var someFunc()
Working example:
Your index.html should be like:
<html>
<head>
<script data-require="[email protected]" data-semver="1.3.15" src="https://code.angularjs.org/1.3.15/angular.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
<script src="script.js"></script>
<script src="application.js"></script>
</head>
<body ng-app="demo" ng-controller="demoController">
<button type="submit" ng-disabled="isDisabled" ng-click="disableButton()"> Click me to disable myself</button>
</body>
</html>
And your controller application.js be like:
angular.module('demo', [])
.controller('demoController',function($scope){
$scope.isDisabled = false;
$scope.disableButton = function() {
$scope.isDisabled = true;
}
});
