Some kind of package names are not allowed if it has a substring match with an existing components.js package?

Description:

I have a project abcd can uses Components.Js for which I create typescript plugins that I can inject with success in my project. All works fine. Now I try to create these typescript plugins in a separate project abcddemo also with Components.js. I need to include abcd as a dependency (because I need some interfaces and helper functions). All works well as long as I don't have a package name that starts with an a or ab or abc. When I use abcddemo as package name and run a demo test I get as error:

> node dist/demo.js

But, when I rename my package to xbcddemo and rebuild and rename the contexts in config.jsonld everything works well

Thanks for reporting!

Heh, that's a funny error.

It could be related to the auto-generated prefixes. Could you try overwriting that via -r in componentsjs-generator?

[phochste]

@rubensworks yes that works!
