Using type as the Field ID will result in no data being outputted for that Content Type when building the YAML files

[j0b0sapi3n]

I ran into this odd error while trying to figure out why a specific Content Type wasn't being returned anymore when running middleman contentful. The Content Type has 10 fields, and only the ID was being returned now. Very strange. I disabled each field one by one until I discovered that if it was a Short Text field that was causing this. More specifically, it was because I named the field ID type. Once I changed the field ID to something like itemType it worked.

Why does this happen?

This happens due to an issue when there are conflicting names between the sys properties and the fields. This will be fixed with the update to the 2.0.0 contentful.rb SDK, I'll have this done within the next few days. For the moment, you can change your field ID.
