Collections with dash in the name

[kukkuk]

First of all, thank you for creating this gem. It's really useful.

I'm attempting to work with an OData source that has dashes in the collections names:

<service xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2007/app" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xml:base="https://netstockaustraliaptyltd-demo.myobadvanced.com/odata/">
  <workspace>
    <atom:title type="text">Default</atom:title>
    <collection href="BI-Customers">
      <atom:title type="text">BI-Customers</atom:title>
    </collection>
    <collection href="BI-Employees">
      <atom:title type="text">BI-Employees</atom:title>
    </collection>
    <collection href="BI-Opportunities">
      <atom:title type="text">BI-Opportunities</atom:title>
    </collection>
    <collection href="BI-Dates">
      <atom:title type="text">BI-Dates</atom:title>
    </collection>
  </workspace>
</service>

When I try to instantiate a service I get this error:

NameError: wrong constant name BI-Customers
    from /home/barry/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.2/gems/ruby_odata-0.1.6/lib/ruby_odata/class_builder.rb:53:in `const_set'

    from (irb):2
    from /home/barry/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.2.2/bin/irb:11:in `<main>'

I tried making a small change in lib/ruby_odata/service.rb line 349:

  def qualify_class_name(klass_name)
    unless @namespace.nil? || @namespace.blank? || klass_name.include?('::')
      namespaces = @namespace.split(/\.|::/)
      namespaces << klass_name
      klass_name = namespaces.join '::'
    end
    klass_name.camelize.gsub('-','') #### I changed this
  end

Now I can instantiate the service, and select the collection:

svc = OData::Service.new "https://netstockaustraliaptyltd-demo.myobadvanced.com/odata", :username => 'andy@netstock.co', :password => 'myob(*&6'
svc.send "BI-Customers"
#<OData::QueryBuilder:0x00000002b4b200 @root="/BI-Customers", @expands=[], @filters=[], @order_bys=[], @navigation_paths=[], @select=[], @skip=nil, @top=nil, @count=nil, @links_navigation_property=nil, @additional_params={}>

It would be nice if I could simply write svc.BICustomers instead of svc.send "BI-Customers"

Any ideas how I can make that heppen?

Thanks so much

Barry

Is everything prefixed the same? If so you could probably add an option for model prefix (or something like that) and have the QueryBuilder add that prefix when it creates the queries. Then you could just do svc.Customers
