Cannot read property 'then' of undefined using Angular Material autocomplete

I have code like this:

<body layout="row" ng-app="myApp" controller="main" ng-cloak>
  <md-autocomplete md-items="item in search(searchText)"
                   md-search-text="searchText"
                   md-item-text="item.name"   
                   md-selected-item="selectedUser"
                   md-no-cache="true"
                   md-floating-label="Enter user ID or email address">
    <md-item-template>
      <span md-highlight-text="searchText">{{item.name}} {{item.surname}} &lt;{{item.email}}&gt;</span>
    </md-autocomplete>
</body>

and js:

var app = angular.module('myApp',['ngMaterial']);
app.controller('main', function($scope, $q, $timeout) {
  var items = [
    {
      userId: 10,
      name: 'Foo',
      surname: 'Bar',
      email: '[email protected]'
    }
  ];
  $scope.search = function(search) {
    console.log('search');
      var deferred = $q.defer();
      $timeout(function() {
          deferred.resolve(items);
      }, Math.random() * 500, false);
      return deferred.promise;
  };
});

and I got this exception when I type something, what's wrong with my code.

var app = angular.module('myApp',['ngMaterial']);
app.controller('main', function($scope, $q, $timeout) {
  var items = [
    {
      userId: 10,
      name: 'Foo',
      surname: 'Bar',
      email: '[email protected]'
    }
  ];
  $scope.search = function(search) {
    console.log('search');
      var deferred = $q.defer();
      $timeout(function() {
          deferred.resolve(items);
      }, Math.random() * 500, false);
      return deferred.promise;
  };
});

                   md-floating-label="Enter user ID or email address">

      <span md-highlight-text="searchText">{{item.name}} {{item.surname}} &lt;{{item.email}}&gt;</span>
    </md-autocomplete>
</body>

simple mistake. Add ng-controller="main"
