Cannot read property 'appendChild' of null

Hi,

Just installed ngx-autosize. Works great but got this error thrown just now (see below). Quite probably because I dynamically display / hide the textarea onto which autosize is applied, but I can’t reproduce it at will 😕.

Cannot read property 'appendChild' of null
    at AutosizeDirective.adjust (ngx-autosize.js:137)
    at ngx-autosize.js:111
    at ZoneDelegate.push../node_modules/zone.js/dist/zone.js.ZoneDelegate.invokeTask (zone.js:423)
    at Object.onInvokeTask (core.js:21826)
    at ZoneDelegate.push../node_modules/zone.js/dist/zone.js.ZoneDelegate.invokeTask (zone.js:422)

The culprit line is

            const parent = this.textAreaEl.parentNode;
            clone.style.width = this.textAreaEl.offsetWidth + 'px';
            clone.style.visibility = 'hidden';
            clone.style.position = 'absolute';
            clone.textContent = currentText;
            parent.appendChild(clone);        <------- HERE

There should probably be a if (!parent) return or something somewhere in there.
