[AngularJS] init() vs OnInit in angular 1.5

Discussion:

We are migrating from angular 1.x to 1.5 and we do have init() functions
in all the controllers, as we have lifecycle hooks available in angular 1.5
, I just moved all the code from init() to
vm.$onInit() method. We usually put all the initialization stuff in init
function before angular 1.5. Is there difference between init() and
$onInit() ? Am I doing anything wrong ?

Thanks in Advance

Hi S,

There was no 'init' support in angular before $oninit. So the main
difference is that angular calls the $onInit automatically when it needs
it, and you needed to cal your init() functions yourself.
