Get the index of the click element

Question

I am trying to get the index of the clicked element but I keep getting -1 in the console. I am using Array.prototype to get the indexOf from the nodelist

HTML:

<div ng-app='app' ng-controller='mainCtrl'>
  <div app-click="">
    <div ng-repeat="json in myJson">
      <li>{{json}}</li>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

JS:

.directive('appClick', function() {
  return {
    restrict: 'A',
    scope: true,
    controller: function($scope, $element) {
      $element.bind("click",function(e){
            var index = Array.prototype.indexOf.call($element.children(), e.target);
          console.log(index);
      });
    }
  }
});

Other option is to set the index

<div ng-app='app' ng-controller='mainCtrl'>
  <div app-click="">
    <div ng-repeat="json in myJson">
      <li data-index="{{$index}}">{{json}}</li>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

and read it in the click

e.target.dataset.index
