I have following line is one of my angular controller:

document.getElementById('someId').src = localStorageService.get('someKey');

It is giving me, TypeError: Cannot set propertly src of null after minifying the javascript, in my angular app. It is not happening with un-minified code. What could be the possible reason ?

Does `someId` have a `src` in your HTML? – roberrrt-s Nov 30 '16 at 09:48
Yes, it has. It is meant to load an url. – Luke P. Issac Nov 30 '16 at 09:49
Could you share the rest of your HTML/Javascript? – roberrrt-s Nov 30 '16 at 09:50
Did you read how to minify Angularjs? May be you will find the answer here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18782324/angularjs-minify-best-practice – P.S. Nov 30 '16 at 09:52
This line shouldnt be in a controller. Use a directive or a component for this. (but this does not answer your question) – Tamas Hegedus Nov 30 '16 at 09:58
Thanks all. I just figured out that after minification (as the part of build process), the html is getting modified where element with id "someId" is not present. – Luke P. Issac Nov 30 '16 at 10:03
