How can I make recursive templates in AngularJS when using nested objects?

Might consider using ng-switch to check availability of Fields property. If so, then use a different template for that condition. This template would have an ng-repeat on the Fields array.

Combining what @jpmorin and @Ketan suggested (slight change on @jpmorin's answer since it doesn't actually work as is)...there's an ng-if to prevent "leaf children" from generating unnecessary ng-repeat directives:

<script type="text/ng-template" id="field_renderer.html">
  {{field.label}}
  <ul ng-if="field.Fields">
      <li ng-repeat="field in field.Fields" 
         ng-include="'field_renderer.html'">
      </li>
  </ul>
</script>
<ul>
  <li ng-repeat="field in formData" ng-include="'field_renderer.html'"></li>
</ul>

here's the working version in Plunker

I know this is an old question, but for others who might come by here though a search, I though I would leave a solution that to me is somewhat more neat.

It builds on the same idea, but rather than having to store a template inside the template cache etc. I wished for a more "clean" solution, so I ended up creating https://github.com/dotJEM/angular-tree

It's fairly simple to use:

<ul dx-start-with="rootNode">
  <li ng-repeat="node in $dxPrior.nodes">
    {{ node.name }}
    <ul dx-connect="node"/>
  </li>
</ul>

Since the directive uses transclusion instead of compile (as of the latest version), this should perform better than the ng-include example.

Example based on the Data here:

angular
  .module('demo', ['dotjem.angular.tree'])
  .controller('AppController', function($window) {

    this.formData = [
      { label: 'First Name', type: 'text', required: 'true' },
      { label: 'Last Name',  type: 'text', required: 'true' }, 
      { label: 'Coffee Preference', type: 'dropdown', options: ["HiTest", "Dunkin", "Decaf"] }, 
      { label: 'Address', type: 'group',
      "Fields": [{
        label: 'Street1', type: 'text', required: 'true' }, {
        label: 'Street2', type: 'text', required: 'true' }, {
        label: 'State',   type: 'dropdown', options: ["California", "New York", "Florida"]
      }]
    }, ];

    this.addNode = function(parent) {
      var name = $window.prompt("Node name: ", "node name here");
      parent.children = parent.children || [];
      parent.children.push({
        name: name
      });
    }

    this.removeNode = function(parent, child) {
      var index = parent.children.indexOf(child);
      if (index > -1) {
        parent.children.splice(index, 1);
      }
    }

  });

<div ng-app="demo" ng-controller="AppController as app">

   <form>
        <ul class="unstyled" dx-start-with="app.formData" >
            <li ng-repeat="field in $dxPrior" data-ng-switch on="field.type">
                <div data-ng-switch-when="text">
                    <label>{{field.label}}</label>
                    <input type="text"/>
                </div>
                <div data-ng-switch-when="dropdown">
                    <label>{{field.label}}</label>
                    <select>
                        <option ng-repeat="option in field.options" value="{{option}}">{{option}}</option>
                    </select>
                </div>
                <div data-ng-switch-when="group" class="well">
                    <h2>{{field.label}}</h2>
                    <ul class="unstyled" dx-connect="field.Fields" />
                </div>   
            </li>
        </ul>
            <input class="btn-primary" type="submit" value="Submit"/>
    </form>

I think that this could help you. It is from an answer I found on a Google Group about recursive elements in a tree.

The suggestion is from Brendan Owen: http://jsfiddle.net/brendanowen/uXbn6/8/

<script type="text/ng-template" id="field_renderer.html">
    {{data.label}}
    <ul>
        <li ng-repeat="field in data.fields" ng-include="'field_renderer.html'"></li>
    </ul>
</script>

<ul ng-controller="NestedFormCtrl">
    <li ng-repeat="field in formData" ng-include="'field_renderer.html'"></li>
</ul>

The proposed solution is about using a template that uses the ng-include directive to call itself if the current element has children.

In your case, I would try to create a template with the ng-switch directive (one case per type of label like you did) and add the ng-include at the end if there are any child labels.
