For large radio systems, it can be impractical to list out every possible permutation of a radio ID in the
unitTagsFile
. Often radio systems have IDs that follow particular patterns which can be modeled in a regular expression.This PR adds support to the
unitTagsFile
for regular expressions, such that all units matching the same regex can be tagged with the corresponding name. Capture groups are supported in the name as well, so a name of "Engine $1" in the file can get translated to "Engine 225".I've updated the configuration docs with more information on how to use this.
