Support /roomnick feature #205

Open unclechu opened 4 years ago

unclechu commented 4 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. If you change your nickname in the bridged room only by /roomnick command your nickname stays the same on the XMPP side. Even if you leave and join the room again. If a user mention you in XMPP MUC you won’t receive any notification. I didn’t test what will happen if you change your nickname globally, maybe it also wouldn’t work, don’t know.

Describe the solution you'd like Change the local nickname in the room on XMPP MUC side too.

Describe alternatives you've considered None.

Additional context None.

At some point I realized that on XMPP side in one room I set roomnick the user now has roomnick alias as its nick. @Half-Shot did someone implement it or it works in some specific cases or after a restart of the bot for instance?
