EEGDEV-TOBIIA(5)

💖 eegdev-tobiia — the Tobi Interface A glow-up 💖

okay so this is a page from the EEGDEV library manual, and it's literally all about the eegdev-tobiia situation. buckle up bestie 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

eegdev-tobiia — the eegdev backend for Tobi Interface A 🧠✨

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

The tobiia plugin is the backend for the eegdev library, and its whole job is reading from a Tobi Interface A device. that's it, that's the vibe. she reads. she delivers. periodt. 💅

🎀 CONFIGURATION 🎀

This plugin supports a couple of options, and ngl the rules are simple: if none of the configuration files and none of the configuration strings (peep egd_open(3) for that one) say anything about an option, then the default value just slides in and takes over. no drama. 🫶

• host — this is the URI of the server you're connecting to. the format should follow the (standard) format "server[:port]". the server part can be an IPv4 address (XX.XX.XX.XX), an IPv6 address, or a hostname. 🦋

lowkey important: if you're using an IPv6 address and a port number, you must wrap the address in square brackets, like this: "[2001:660:3003:2:a00:20ff:fe18:964c]:38500". don't skip the brackets, bestie, she will not parse it. 😭

the default value is "localhost".

• port — the port number to use when connecting to the server, but only if the host URI didn't already specify one. the default value is "38500". 🔥

🌈 FILES 🌈

• /etc/eegdev/eegdev.conf — the shared configuration file. everyone shares this one, it's giving communal closet energy. 👑
• /etc/eegdev/tobiia.conf — the configuration file that gets loaded when the tobiia plugin is used. and here's the tea: the settings you put here override the settings in the shared configuration file. main character file fr fr. 💅
