Ability to set RemoteNickFormat for Matterbridge

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

No

Describe the solution you'd like

When using this for single user setup, it may annoy others on the target chat system when they see always

[nctalk] <markuman> my message
[nctalk] <markuman> bla blabla

So it would be nice to disable/overwrite it.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Dirty patch it like this

sed -i 's/\[{PROTOCOL}\] <{NICK}> //g' lib/MatterbridgeManager.php

Additional context

Well you can also adjust your matterbridge config file in tmp

[markuman]

@nickvergessen
/tmp is on most systems not persistent I think.
And my setup is using docker.
So I think I can automate it for my needs. But it would be nice to overwrite this settings/variables.

Just ment its the better hack then adjusting the Talk source code

True. But every click in the settings seems to overwrite the .toml file.
I need to mount it as :ro in the container or do chmod 444 on that file.

Uh, I figured out that the config is not persistent at all.

After restart

cat /tmp/bridge-8j5ditpi.log 
time="2020-10-04T17:44:45Z" level=info msg="Running version 1.18.3 8b26e42a" prefix=main
time="2020-10-04T17:44:45Z" level=fatal msg="Failed to read configuration file: &os.PathError{Op:"open", Path:"/tmp/bridge-8j5ditpi.toml", Err:0x2}" prefix=config

But in the right sidebar, the information are still present. So I need to click "save" again and hit several times on "enabled" until it gets the status "running".

I'd just like to say that I'd also like this feature very much. Sadly, the toml files are not persistent and I haven't found a way to tweak the matterbidge config, except for adjusting MatterbridgeManager.php.
