Invalid variable name

[KasMA1990]

I'm using asdf 0.8.0 and have installed the asdf-nodejs plugin and the yarn plugin. When I attempt to run e.g. asdf install, I get this error:

/home/kasper/.asdf/lib/utils.bash: line 234: ASDF_NODE.JS_VERSION: invalid variable name

I'm not sure if it's causing any trouble, since things appear to work.

OS: Ubuntu 20.04
Shell: GNU bash, version 5.0.17(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)

@KasMA1990 it looks like you may have included a dot in your plugin name. This results in an invalid variable name of ASDF_NODE.JS_VERSION. We should fix this so names with dots are either valid or dots are converted to another character.

Indeed, I was installing the plugin with this command:

asdf plugin add node.js https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf-nodejs.git

But using

asdf plugin add nodejs https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf-nodejs.git

instead fixes it.

Another option would be to validate the name, and tell the user not to use dots.

This is an issue from asdf-core, we should get some warnings going on invalid plugin names

This has been fixed by asdf-vm/asdf#1010. The . character is no longer permitted in plugin names and an error is printed if you try to use it. So you'll need to use nodejs for the name of this plugin.

Thanks for all your work on the issue tracker @augustobmoura !
