Bug - When using a - with Yo Docker as part of the project/composed app, Build/Debugging doesn't work

[CESARDELATORRE]

I made quite a few tests and conclude saying that When using a "-" with Yo Docker as part of the project/composed app, Build/Debugging doesn't work.

THIS DOESN’T WORK:
$imageName="cesardl/netcorewebapimicroservice25"
$projectName="docker-composed-app"  BUG
$serviceName="netcorewebapimicroservice25"

THIS WORKS:
$imageName="cesardl/netcore-webapi-microservice2"
$projectName="dockercomposedapp"
$serviceName="netcore-webapi-microservice2"

I think that the issue/bug with “-” happens only for the projectName (which is the ComposedAppName)

Thanks,
Cesar.

This should now be fixed in master. The underlying issue is that docker-compose ignores -s in the project name for docker-compose. We have updated the generator to like-wise ignore -s (and other unsupported characters) in the project name for docker compose.
