Set Friendly Name #8

I'm running on a Raspberry Pi sending messages to my local MQTT broker. This is great, thanks for the app! I am not using HomeAssistant.

I would like to set a "friendly" name for my sensors instead of using the MAC address. When I tried to edit the config file and changed the name: entries to my friendly names, the container would not start.

Please ignore this! The first time I tried this I forgot to quote the friendly name strings. The name: field with a quoted string works fine. Sorry for the confusion.
