You can pass parameters to components by including them in the component binding within the page / template-instance XML. Take the following excerpt form the Alfresco default edit-metadata.xml template instance definition:

<component>
   <region-id>edit-metadata</region-id>
   <url>/components/form</url>
   <properties>
      <itemKind>node</itemKind>
      <itemId>{nodeRef}</itemId>
      <mode>edit</mode>
      <submitType>json</submitType>
      <showCaption>true</showCaption>
      <showCancelButton>true</showCancelButton>
   </properties>
</component>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

The {nodeRef} refers to a URL parameter that is passed from the global page context to the component. Within the component (web script) itself, this is referred to via args.itemId (you should not use the url root object for this).
