ng-repeat passing index value to a function

Question

I need to pass a $index value of a specific element, added with ng-repeat, to a javascript function. My code sample:

<tr ng-repeat="cells in CouponsList.CellPhones">
<td><button  ng-click="doStuff($index+1)">{{cells.localVendorAddress}}</button></td>

Now I am adding several buttons and when a specific button is pressed I need to send it's specific $index to the doStuff($index) function. Any idea?

Answer 1

please see here : http://jsbin.com/yeweh/4/edit

<a href="" ng-repeat="s in students" ng-click="doit($index)">{{s.name}} - {{s.class}} </a>


var app = angular.module('app', []);



app.controller('firstCtrl', function($scope){

  $scope.doit= function(index){
    alert(index)

  }

  $scope.students = [
           {name: 'Aa_Student', class: 'A_Class'},
           {name: 'Ab_Student', class: 'A_Class'},
           {name: 'Ac_Student', class: 'B_Class'},
           {name: 'Ba_Student', class: 'B_Class'},
           {name: 'Bb_Student', class: 'C_Class'},
           {name: 'Bc_Student', class: 'C_Class'}];
});

Here is an example.

What you have there looks ok but you might be missing something with the function definition for doStuff. It must be defined on the $scope like this:

$scope.doStuff = function(idx){
    alert(idx);
};

Answer 3

You need to make sure when you're using ng-click that the function that is called is declared on the scope in the controller.

Therefore, if your function name is doStuff(index), you should see this defined somewhere in your code as (the below makes assumptions about your module and controller names):

var app = angular.module("MyModule", []);
app.controller("MyController", function($scope){

    $scope.doStuff = function(index){
        ... 
    }

}
