Parallax

[hannalee2]

Brief summary of changes

On the Parallax side, it uses an HTTP server, so the Parallax binding is very similar to the pathfinder-mpm code.

One request is to add a CLI option for the port number, similar to what pathfinder-mpm provides. The default port for Parallax is currently 8081.

  def _get_binding_instance(self, options: EphysLinkOptions) -> BaseBinding:
    ... 
            if binding_cli_name == options.type:
                # Pass in HTTP port for Pathfinder MPM.
                if binding_cli_name == "pathfinder-mpm":
                    return MPMBinding(options.mpm_port)
                
                if binding_cli_name == "parallax":
                    return ParallaxBinding() # It would be great to have port number option for the parallax
