bower: invalid meta, name

[gruppjo]

With the latest version of bower 1.7.9 the bower.json of the demo might produce this error.

bower invalid-meta  The "name" is recommended to be lowercase, can contain digits, dots, dashes

Ensure valid meta name by adhering to guidelines.

Any workarounds for this discovered?

[gruppjo]

open your bower.json and change the "name" property to be all lowercase and without spaces:
So this:

"name": "My Project",

Should be turned into

"name": "my-project",

Or something of the sort.

I will update the generator later to automatically generate a compatible name.

Please not that when you run bower install this error might also be thrown by some of the bower packages you use.

Thanks! This seems to have fixed it.

@nod. Good :) This will be default in the next version of the generator
