ngx-bootstrap: bug(modal): Cannot read property 'body' of undefined (document not injected)

First off: Great job on the modal. Very easy to use.

I have a situation where I close the modal, and perform an action -> where the action ends up taking me somewhere else within my app.

I do something like this : (click)="dealReviewModal.hide(); confirmDeal();"

My confirmDeal() will do some work and will change the display of the page… but this error shows up:

browser_adapter.ts:78 TypeError: Cannot read property 'body' of undefined

The curious aspect that I have found is that within my confirmDeal(), if I set a setTimeout of 500ms, then the modal hides, and everything works as it should.

Any ideas?

I have exactley the same problem. I want the redirect the user to another route, after the modal has closed. To fix it in the meanwhile I used this stupid solution:

Template

 (click)="hideModal()"

Component

 hideModal() {
    this.modal.hide();
    let self = this;

     setTimeout(function () { 
          self._router.navigateByUrl('/anotherRoute');
     }, 500);
  }

it seems that it takes some time, until the DOM has been updated or cleared. I dont know

@valorkin what is the fix to this problem? I don’t mind sending a pull request as the workaround is very bad.

Thanks!
