Access Attribute of a column header via column?

dubois_j

So I am looping through my columns and want to find custom attribute of the current columns header cell.
I was hoping to do something like the following, but attr() is not a function of header.

$tableSelector.columns().each( function () {   
    var column = this;
    column.header().attr("myAttribute");
});

Thanks

Found a work around, but it seems clunky

$tableSelector.columns().each( function () {  
    var column = this;
    $("#myTableID thead tr th:nth-child(" + column.index()  + ")").each(function () {
        console.log( $(this).attr("myAttribute"));
    });       
 });
