Using -i with wildcard overwrites source JSON file

[bingtimren]

To reproduce this problem, download the attached file:

example.zip

Then execute the following commands

unzip ./example.zip 
json2ts -i test/resources/multi-example/**/*.json --cwd test/resources/multi-example/schemas/
cat test/resources/multi-example/schemas/personForm.json 

File "personForm.json" is overwritten. Source file should never be overwritten.

I've encountered the same bug. It seems to occur when the input directory contains a subdirectory and --cwd is provided.

Hey there! What's it getting overwritten with? We should only be writing .d.ts files, not .json files.

[bingtimren]

Please follow the above steps to reproduce the problem. You should find the source test/resources/multi-example/schemas/personForm.json is overwritten after running json2ts.

@bingtimren I'd appreciate it if you could take a few mins to write out what exactly is getting overwritten with what, as part of this issue, so folks don't need to download zip files and debug themselves.

Ok, the content of the example.zip is as follows:

bing@bing-e480:~/Downloads$ tree
.
└── test
    └── resources
        └── multi-example
            └── schemas
                ├── driver.json
                ├── fleet.json
                ├── personForm.json
                ├── person.json
                └── vehicle.json

4 directories, 5 files

I see -- it seems like we're not setting the extension properly. Thanks for reporting!
