I have a simple loop with ng-repeat
like this:
<li ng-repeat='task in tasks'>
<p> {{task.name}}
<button ng-click="removeTask({{task.id}})">remove</button>
</li>
There is a function in the controller $scope.removeTask(taskID)
.
As far as I know Angular will first render the view and replace interpolated {{task.id}}
with a number, and then, on click event, will evaluate ng-click
string.
In this case ng-click
gets totally what is expected, ie: ng-click="removeTask(5)".
However... it's not doing anything.
Of course I can write a code to get task.id
from the $tasks
array or even the DOM, but this does not seem like the Angular way.
So, how can one add dynamic content to ng-click
directive inside a ng-repeat
loop?
Also worth noting, for people who find this in their searches, is this...
Note the value of
ng-click
. The parameter passed togoTo()
is a string from a property of the binding object (thebutton
), but it is not wrapped in quotes. Looks like AngularJS handles that for us. I got hung up on that for a few minutes.this works. thanks. I am injecting custom html and compile it using angular in the controller.
Above answers are excellent. You can look at the following full code example so that you could exactly know how to use
Instead of
do this:

One thing that really hung me up, was when I inspected this html in the browser, instead of seeing it expanded to something like:
I saw:
However, the latter works!
This is because you are in the "Angular World", when inside ng-click="" Angular all ready knows about task.id as you are inside it's model. There is no need to use Data binding, as in {{}}.
Further, if you wanted to pass the task object itself, you can like:
