Error trying to generate the REST API with a camel case project name

[Grendel61]

Hi, I think I found a small error/feature in the REST API generator.

I was having a lot of problems with a Typescript error popping up during the REST API generation process.

conv-rest-api generate api -c projectName -f org1.projectName.config.json

I originally had generated the project with conv new projectName in camel case, then when I ran the api generator conv-rest-api generate api -c projectName -f org1.projectName.config.json I received the error above.

I thought the error was in my model files or the controller files, but it was something simpler.

When I regenerated the project name without camel case, the api generator worked. That wasn't my first attempt :smiley:

I was on a Macbook, and I should know better than to use camel case in file and directory names. You may want to force lowercase.
