authenticationToken is not recognized

See original GitHub issue

I have the issue that mý authToken is not being recognized…

Tried several different methodes, checked the code but somewhere the linking between the plugin and the config seems to fail.

Here is the Failure message:

    this.authenticationToken = config['authenticationToken'];
                                     ^

and here is my config:

	"platforms": [{
			
		"platform": "eWeLink",
		"name": "eWeLink",
		"autheticationToken": "authToken is in here!",
		"apiHost": "eu-api.coolkit.cc:8080/api/group?apikey=apikeygoeshere&appid=xyz&nonce=eto149q7&ts=1514263532&version=6",
		"webSocketApi": "eu-api.coolkit.cc:8080/api/group?apikey=apikeygoeshere&appid=xyz&ts=1514263532&version=6"
		},
			]
}

    }                                                                                                               
]

}

Is the problem fixed in the meantime?
