Whitespace in name bsconfig.json causes error: Can not handle multiple files

Hello there,

I encountered a (not very helpful) error when trying to compile a project with a bsconfig.json that has a name with a whitespace i.e. "name": "My rescript project". As requested on the forum https://forum.rescript-lang.org/t/error-can-not-handle-multiple-files/1368 I am posting the issue here.

Thank you for your time and efforts 😄

OS

Windows (using bash)

Problem

When trying to compile a project with a bsconfig.json that has a whitespace in the name, I am getting the following error:

$ bsb -make-world -clean-world -w
Cleaning... 54 files.
Cleaning... 5 files.
Dependency on @rescript/react
bsb: [38/38] src/legacy/ReactDOMRe.cmj
bsb: [49/49] install.stamp
Dependency Finished
>>>> Start compiling
bsb: [3/3] pages/index.cmj
FAILED: pages/index.cmj
can not handle multiple files
FAILED: cannot make progress due to previous errors.
>>>> Finish compiling(exit: 1)

How to reproduce

Change name in bsconfig.jsonfrom:

{
  "name": "Rescript next.js-app"
}

Run:

bsb -make-world -clean-world -w

Behold the error

Change the name to something without whitespaces bsconfig.json:

{
  "name": "rescript-nextjs-app"
}

And the error disappears.
