Pass parameter to Angular ng-include

Question

I am trying to display a binary tree of elements, which I go through recursively with ng-include.

What is the difference between ng-init=\"item = item.left\"

Answer 1

Pass parameter to Angular ng-include

You don't need that. all ng-include's sources have the same controller. So each view sees the same data.

What is the difference between ng-init="item = item.left" and ng-repeat="item in item.left"

[1]

ng-init="item = item.left" means - creating new instance named item that equals to item.left. In other words you achieve the same by writing in controller:

$scope.item = $scope.item.left

[2]

ng-repeat="item in item.left" means create list of scopes based on item.left array. You should know that each item in ng-repeat has its private scope
