AngularJS transfer data between one component to another

Question

Have some data for one controller JSON, I fill by this data in ng-repeat my view. But when selecting this data from view I need pass selected data to Form Controller fill all forms.

I don't know how to do this in angularJS with components. I built service, which parse data when i select it and pass to Form Controller. But it's additional work parse it again by service.Maybe exist some more good way how pickup just id, and Form Controller load it automatically when get id's from service.

AngularJS really hard for all ways as I understood :(

It's better to provide some code samples with the question. Actually you have 3 main ways to share data between modules - parent controller, rootScope and services. Ok, there is event emitter here, but I heard opinions that it's not 'Angular way' to use events, because it's hard to maintain this architecture later. As I understood, you are using service for this porpoise and it's fine. Since Service is Singleton in Angular you can use it not only to share reusable peaces of code but and for sharing data between controllers.
