I'm attempting to compile {{$index}} from a ng-repeat inside an onclick. Setup looks like this.

<div ng-repeat="stuff in things" >
<a href="#" onclick="superDuperFunction({{$index}});">Foo</a>
</div>

Except, I'm getting a console error instead of it {{$index}} compiling.

Error: [$compile:nodomevents] http://errors.angularjs.org/undefined/$compile/nodomevents

What am I doing wrong? Any help is appreciated!

Why are you using an inline JS handler when you're using Angular? – tymeJV Nov 14 '13 at 21:01
    
Honestly, I'm still learning the ups and downs of Angular. Just couldn't find proper documentation on a situation like this. – Dustin Nov 14 '13 at 21:07
    
ng-click is definitely the way you want to go, then you define the function in the controller such as $scope.myFunc = function(param) { – tymeJV Nov 14 '13 at 21:10

Try <a href="#" ng-click="superDuperFunction($index)">Foo</a>.

I thought that at first, but it doesn't seem to work. I attempted to use ng-click with a function that has no parameters does work with onclick, but doesn't work with ng-click. – Dustin Nov 14 '13 at 21:08
    
Make sure that superDuperFunctionis defined in your controller i.e. $scope.superDuperFunction = function(index) { .... – Heikki Nov 14 '13 at 21:10
