Uncaught exception in promise when when trying to use nested components
I am getting this exception when trying to use nested components:

This is my code for the main component:
<base-menu [menu-items-list]="menuList" [menu-layer]="layer"
(select-menu-item)="selectMenuItem($event)"
(add-new-item)="addMenuItem($event)"></base-menu>
import {BaseMenuComponent} from '../../../../components/menuComponent/baseMenuComponent/baseMenuComponent';
let applicationPath: string = '/app/pages/adminPage/categoriesPage/requestsPage';
@Component({
selector: 'companies-Page',
templateUrl: applicationPath + '/requestsPage.html',
styleUrls:[ applicationPath + '/requestsPage.css'],
providers:[RequestTypeService, HTTP_PROVIDERS],
directives:[BaseMenuComponent]
})
export class RequestsPage implements OnInit {
requestTypes:Array<RequestType> = new Array();
searchQuery: string = "";
menuList = [
{id:12, layer:0, name:'asd'},
{id:13, layer:0, name:'asda'},
{id:14, layer:0, name:'asdd'}];
layer = 0;
_requestTypeService:RequestTypeService
constructor(requestTypeService:RequestTypeService) {
this._requestTypeService = requestTypeService;
}
ngOnInit(){
//this.getRequestTypesWithFilters();
}
}
and this is the child component:
import {Component, Input, Output, EventEmitter, OnInit} from 'angular2/core';
@Component({
selector: 'base-menu',
//templateUrl: '/app/components/menuComponent/baseMenuComponent/baseMenuComponent.html'
template:`
<div class="base-menu-component">
<ul class="nav nav-pills nav-stacked">
<li class="form-group row">
<input class="form-control" [(ngModel)]="newMenuItem"/>
<button class="btn btn-success" (click)="addMenuItem()">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus"></span>
</button>
<button class="btn btn-success" (click)="clearMenuItem()">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-remove"></span>
</button>
</li>
<li *ngFor="#item of menuItems" [class]="isItemSelected(item) ? 'active':''" (click)="selectItem(item)">
<a>{{item.name}}</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>`
})
export class BaseMenuComponent implements OnInit {
@Input('menu-items-list') menuItemsList:Array<MenuItem>;
@Input('menu-layer') menuLayer:number;
@Output('select-menu-item') broadcastMenuItem: EventEmitter<MenuData> = new EventEmitter<MenuData>();
@Output('add-new-item') broadcastNewItem: EventEmitter<MenuData> = new EventEmitter<MenuData>();
selectedItem:MenuItem;
newMenuItem:string;
constructor() { }
ngOnInit(){
this.selectedItem = this.menuItemsList && this.menuItemsList.length > 0 ? this.menuItemsList[0] : null;
this.newMenuItem = "";
}
isItemSelected(menuItem){
return this.selectedItem == menuItem;
}
selectItem(menuItem){
this.selectedItem = menuItem;
this.broadcastMenuItem.emit({menuItem:menuItem, menuLayer:this.menuLayer});
}
addMenuItem(){
this.broadcastNewItem.emit({menuItem:this.newMenuItem, menuLayer:this.menuLayer});
this.clearMenuItem();
}
clearMenuItem(){
this.newMenuItem = "";
}
}
interface MenuItem{
id;
layer;
parentId;
name;
}
interface MenuData{
menuItem;
menuLayer;
}
Can someone explain me from where is this error and why it appears?
To me, the html and both components look very clear.
Answer
I did have a similar issue with a different cause :
I built a small app using angular-cli and when the html of the component is created, it has something like :
<p>
Component works !
</p>
So what I did is that to test a little bit my component :
<p>
Component works !
<div *ngFor="#value in values">
{{value}}
</div>
</p>
But then the error showed up.
It's just because a paragraph can't contain a block element like ( div , h1, ul etc).
So many time wasted just to spot that ...
When I do
<div>
Component works !
<div *ngFor="#value in values">
{{value}}
</div>
</div>
It's working fine ;)
