angular 2 RC5: platform-browser.umd.js:937 EXCEPTION: Error: Uncaught (in promise):

I'm using service to make a request.

homepage.service.ts

import { Injectable } from "@angular/core";
import { Http, Response } from "@angular/http";

import { Observable } from "rxjs/Observable";
import { PATH } from "../const/config";

import { SliderRequest } from "../request/slider.request";

@Injectable()

export class HomepageService {
    private sliderUrl = PATH.url.getUrl();
    constructor (private _http: Http) {}
    getSlider(): Observable<SliderRequest> {
        let doRequest = this._http.get(this.sliderUrl.slider).map(
            (res) => {
                let response = res.json();
                return response;
            }
        );
        return doRequest;
    }
}

And I use this service into homepage component

homepage.component.ts

import { Component, AfterViewInit, OnInit } from "@angular/core";
import { CONFIG, PATH } from "../../const/config";

import { Inject } from "../../inject/inject";

// import service
import { HomepageService } from "../../services/homepage.service";

@Component({
    selector: 'app-home',
    templateUrl: CONFIG.baseUrlForComponentView("home"),
    providers: [HomepageService]
})

export class HomeComponent implements AfterViewInit, OnInit {
    private sliders: any[];
    private shortDescription: any[];
    constructor( private homeService:  HomepageService) {}
    ngOnInit() {
        let that = this;
        this.homeService.getSlider().subscribe(
            (response) => {
                var data = response.data;
                this.shortDescription = data.shortDescription.text;
            }
        );
    }
    ngAfterViewInit() {
        Inject.load(PATH.javascript, 'global')
    }
}

And into my template I do this:

{{shortDescription.description}}

And it return the error bellow:

platform-browser.umd.js:937 EXCEPTION: Error: Uncaught (in promise): EXCEPTION: Error in public/templates/view/home.tpl.html:0:0
ORIGINAL EXCEPTION: TypeError: Cannot read property 'description' of undefined
ORIGINAL STACKTRACE:
TypeError: Cannot read property 'description' of undefined

So I try this:

{{shortDescription | debug}}

debug is a special pipe that I create to ensure that it returns value, and It return the value bellow:

"shortDescription": {
            "video": {
                "url": ""
            },
            "text": {
                "description": "<strong>Lorem</strong>ipsum",
                "goTo": "le concept"
            }
        }

But if I try to use description property or goTo property, it returns the error I mentionned before.

And do not understand what happen with this?

All helps are welcomed!

Since you're getting data asynchronously at first time your variable shortDescription equals undefined.

Elvis operator should resolve your issue:

{{shortDescription?.description}}

Other options:

1) use structural directive ngIf:

<template *ngIf="shortDescription">
  {{shortDescription.description}}
</template>

2) set initial value

export class HomeComponent implements AfterViewInit, OnInit {
  private shortDescription = { description: '' };
  ...
