-Install CodeCarbon as a Linux service
-To install CodeCarbon as a Linux service, follow the instructions below. It works on Ubuntu or other Debian-based systems using systemd.
-Create a dedicated user:
-sudo useradd -r -s /bin/false codecarbon
-
-
-Create a directory for the CodeCarbon service:
-sudo mkdir /opt/codecarbon
-
-
-Change the ownership of the directory to the user created above:
-sudo chown codecarbon:codecarbon /opt/codecarbon
-
-
-Create a virtual environment for CodeCarbon :
-sudo apt install python3-venv
-sudo -u codecarbon python3 -m venv /opt/codecarbon/.venv
-
-
-Install CodeCarbon in the virtual environment:
-sudo -u codecarbon /opt/codecarbon/.venv/bin/pip install codecarbon
-
-
-Go to https://dashboard.codecarbon.io/ and create an account to get your API key.
-Configure CodeCarbon:
-sudo -u codecarbon /opt/codecarbon/.venv/bin/codecarbon login
-
-
-Create a systemd service file:
-sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/codecarbon.service <<EOF
-[Unit]
-Description=CodeCarbon service
-After=network.target
-
-[Service]
-User=codecarbon
-Group=codecarbon
-WorkingDirectory=/opt/codecarbon
-ExecStart=/opt/codecarbon/.venv/bin/codecarbon monitor
-Restart=always
-
-[Install]
-WantedBy=multi-user.target
-EOF
-
-
-Give permissions to the codecarbon group to read the RAPL (Running Average Power Limit) information:
-sudo chown -R root:codecarbon /sys/class/powercap/intel-rapl/*
-sudo chmod g+r -R /sys/class/powercap/intel-rapl/*
-
-sudo apt install sysfsutils
-echo "mode class/powercap/intel-rapl:0/energy_uj = 0440" >> /etc/sysfs.conf
-echo "owner class/powercap/intel-rapl:0/energy_uj = root:codecarbon" >> /etc/sysfs.conf
-
-
-Create the configuration file for CodeCarbon:
-sudo tee /opt/codecarbon/.codecarbon.config <<EOF
-[codecarbon]
-api_endpoint = https://api.codecarbon.io
-organization_id = <organization_id>
-project_id = <project_id>
-experiment_id = <experiment_id>
-api_key = <api_key>
-# Verbose logging
-log_level=WARNING
-# Measure power every 30 seconds
-measure_power_secs=30
-# Send measure to API every 5 minutes (10*30 seconds)
-api_call_interval=10
-EOF
-
-
-Enable and start the service:
-sudo systemctl enable codecarbon
-sudo systemctl start codecarbon
-
-
-Check the traces of the service:
-journalctl -u codecarbon
-
-
-You are done, CodeCarbon is now running as a service on your machine.
-Wait 5 minutes for the first measure to be send to the dashboard at https://dashboard.codecarbon.io/.
