colors: does not support dashes in theme names

[zeruel01]

Actual behavior:

• What is the issue? *
  i was looking for this issue (i got the same) mdColors: Dynamic expression breaks when theme is specified #8720

and it got solved, but i wanted to have dynamic themes and it broke

• What is the expected behavior?
  changing a theme should override the colors of the md-colors based on their values ej { 'background': 'primary-100' } should be a primary of my current theme

@zeruel01 actually this is an interpolation error of mdColors which splits the expressions by -
when you added -theme to your theme you actually failed mdColors
here's a working version.

@topherfangio do you think we should support this edge case?

[zeruel01]

i see, let me check i still cant understand what did you change, so its a naming issue ?

[topherfangio]

@EladBezalel Correct me if I am wrong, but this appears to fail on any theme that has a dash in it. I think we should support themes like deep-purple, etc. without it failing.

Am I understanding the problem correctly?

[EladBezalel]

We do support two word themes, but only two words 😅

[zeruel01]

weird, i wanted to use all the colors included deep-purple or renamed ones
this is kinda specific but i hope you could help me with it

[EladBezalel]

The problem with your code is that we currently doesn't support dashes in theme name with mdColors

deep-purple and others are available as palettes

@EladBezalel - we should either fix this OR document it.

[EladBezalel]

@ThomasBurleson fixing it will make us write a recursive function that takes each part and check if it's a theme, we can do it but it sounds like an overkill to me.

docs is another option :)

[zeruel01]

overkill is the best kill 💥
i understand , i will remove slashes and custom names on my project for a while ✌️
hope you could fix it
