vendor.js:76925 TypeError: Cannot read property 'trim' of undefined about ng-quill HOT 3 CLOSED

I am getting something similar. Just evaluating different HTML Editors and followed the set up instructions. The editor appears but I get this error:

angular.js:13920 TypeError: Cannot read property 'trim' of undefined

@mcblum It looks as the directive does not provide a default for the editors ngModel, the value is undefined and you get the type error (same here).

To solve this, I added an empty string as the initial value and the type error was gone.
If your your ngModel is ng-model="message", set:

$scope.message = '';

If you get an async value from a service, you can use $timeout to replace the empty string:

$timeout(function () {
$scope.message = 'Async Test content';
console.log($scope.message);
}, 3000);

I fixed this issue in the development branch. Hope @KillerCodeMonkey has time to merge this into master.
