# Physalia

Energy measurement framework for Mobile Apps.

More info and documentation in the [website](https://tqrg.github.io/physalia/).

## Install

```
$ pip install https://github.com/luiscruz/PyMonsoon
$ pip install physalia
```

## Example

The simplest way to measure something:

```
from physalia.power_meters import MonsoonPowerMeter
from time import sleep

# change voltage and serial number accordingly:
power_meter = MonsoonPowerMeter(voltage=3.8, serial=12886)
power_meter.start()
sleep(2) # some work
energy_consumption, duration, error_flag = power_meter.stop()
```

Several things need to be done to make sure we can measure energy consumption in Android devices (e.g., setup WiFi control and disable USB).
Physalia takes care of that already:



````
from physalia.power_meters import MonsoonPowerMeter
from physalia.energy_profiler import AndroidUseCase
from time import sleep

# change voltage and serial number accordingly:
power_meter = MonsoonPowerMeter(voltage=3.8, serial=12886)

def run(usecase):
sleep(2) # some work

use_case = AndroidUseCase(
'login',
'path/to/apk',
'com.test.app',
'0.0',
prepare=None,
run=run,
cleanup=None
)
measurement = use_case.run(power_meter=power_meter)
print(measurement)
````
